Army G6 or A6, has got to be the worst IT department I've ever had to deal with in my entire life.

Untested changes, lousy instructions, poor planning, non existing reliability.

It almost seems like we hired the Russians to help us...

It's almost as if the Good Idea Fairy was assigned as the FORSCOM G6. There were times I had to provide a back up solution through logistics networks.

Can we please have everything accessible in AKO instead of going thru different websites?

Sir! you know officers aren't allowed to use that much common sense! The more websites, the more job security for the sections in charge of each of them.

Just trading one set of issues for another. AKO sucked too, just in case anyone forgot.
At least Enterprise was developed in the 21st century.

1SG, I never had issues with AKO on the email. About every other use for AKO had given me pains, however.

SFC (Join to see) - It was often quite difficult to get it to synch with CAC certificates and certain operating systems on a home computer. As a Reserve First Sergeant, that gave me all sorts of hell trying to get evaluation reports done and information out, much of which business had to be done using official communication on AKO.

1SG (Join to see) - Oh yeah, I don't want to get started on the new evaluations either. Hopefully I will get a grip on this during my deployment.

After dealing with all the issues Enterprise gives, does anybody else miss AKO Email?

No, but then again I don't use enterprise email anymore either. USACE has its own email service.

Really, I have so many more issues connecting to enterprise. Although part of that is my dual persona status as I was a contractor and a guardsman for a while.

I'm retired and THANK GOD don't have to worry about this anymore. At the beginning, the Command I was with had it's own servers, and it worked well. Then AKO came in, it was kind of a pain, but we all had to switch to it. This was right at the end of my career. I will say I did like the Command's servers better, was easier to use, but I also understood the reason for AKO.
