allele scoring issues for SSR genotyping

I would like to get some opinion from those who are working on SSR
genotyping.

How do you deal with uncertainties of allele scoring, e.g., is it a
heterozygote or stutters, is a small bump a true allele or contaminant?

For those switching from ABI377 to 3700, what is the biggest challenge you
are facing? How do you deal with shift in sizes between two machines?

Thanks,
