jaymzworld.com Had some great cheat sheets - now is asking for authentication... did Avaya shut it down?

I don't think that Avaya shut it down itself

that sucks

I hope avaya didn't let him go :(

jaymzworld is back online. It was password protected during a site redesign as a wiki. Sorry for any inconvenience.

x2. :)

Seems like the site is back down again :-s

It's not just down this time, it's a completely different site. Now it's redirecting to something called Sims Organizing Service. Maybe it was hacked?

I hope it's not gone for good as there was a lot of very helpful info there.

I think his wife hacked his site. :D This person has the same last name.

Nope, down again

i think forever this time ....

it's back up it seems :-) thank you Jaymz

I think it is down again :(

Seems the site has been down the whole week so far

Anyone have a copy of the site? or anything like that? I'll host a mirror.

HTTP 404 "website not found".

Hope Randyc didnt break it.... :)

Avaya requested that the site be taken down and the request was complied with.

That's a major bummer. Shame on Avaya for bullying you out of sharing your information-- I don't imagine you could have caused any harm by running jaymzworld?

Since Jaymzworld was logically laid out, easy to use, and had a search function which actually worked, perhaps they considered it a threat to their support site, which is none of the above.

sad

I find the support site even worse now that is has been re-designed

Jaymz, come back!

I was told the new Avaya site would have a better search engine. It seems too. I was also told it would have more links. Seems to. But they do not go anywhere!

I too am sad this resource is no longer available. I went to go pull it up yesterday and realized it was down... it's a shame I have to rely more on the Avaya support site, which almost never provides me with what I'm seeking.

I sent Avaya a note asking why the takedown... I hope they reconsider and Jaymz is still interested in running the site.

I can't understand why Avaya is acting like this....the site continues where Avaya's own info stops. I always used Avaya support for high level and documentation findings. But getting more in-depth info, I always consult this forum, tek-tips, pbx-tech and jaymzworld' wiki.

Avaya did the same before with a site (I can't remember its name) which made you easily look up Avaya alarms and their meaning.

Isn't there a way to continue in a closed user group which is password protected?

Thumbs down for Avaya...boooooo!

Your pain is not uncommon. The new site did not take into account any of our (Avaya technical staff) feedback or input.

My only advice is to speak up to those who can make a difference. This does not include any contact or feedback forms on the new site.

My biggest problem is that a site which engineers got used to using has now changed to the point where you spend as much time figuring out where to go as you do actually using it.

Personally, I would have been happy if the effort put forth to "improve" the support site had instead been used to make it faster and more reliable.

Then again, the support site isn't the only place where that comment could be made. Global Support should consider replacing the MOH tape with something from a "books on tape" selection...or adjust the number of support staff to meet the call volume. They are a great bunch of guys, but being run ragged.

The new support site "is" getting better. There are still many tweaks left to do to make it really usable. I like the new features and do use them quite often, but because finding documentation and knowledge articles is soooo much harder...it's hard to notice the good stuff. Let's face it, finding docs and knowledge are the nuts and bolts of a support site.

That said, the new OIS Tool is coming along very nice and eventually will make status and information on the products you support VERY easy and intuitive!

Thanks to the wonders of the Internet, I was able to find an archive of jaymzworld and it saved me this morning!
Is there anywhere else with similar content that doesn't require me to wade through the Avaya support site?

i think we all miss the jaymzworld - if there is an interest I would provide a site with some space. but I need users/community to fill the page...

if there is interest i would host one on one of my servers - please give me a +1 then i will add wiki or any other CMS...
