In the case of our small library, until last month, we were using Heritage[1], a Windows based proprietary ILS. We didn't like it, both for technical reasons and functional reasons. It took the combined efforts of the IT-guy (myself) and the librarian to export the data and process it in a way that was importable in Koha. After a few weeks, overcoming many small and big challenges, we are very happy to introduce our new system to our users, and to this date, no complain at all. If you are interested in the result and the steps of the migration, you can have a look at theses addresses: http://library.stp.dias.ie http://www.stp.dias.ie/library/Heritage2Koha/howto.txt Thanks a lot to the Koha community!
