Sage Summit 2011 Review (Audio)

July 18, 2011

Sage Summit 2011 is the annual conference hosted by Sage to present their product plans for the coming year and offer educational sessions for partners and customers.

In prior years Sage Insights was the partner focused conference hosted in May while Sage Summit was customer focused and hosted in the Fall. This year for the first time Sage combined two formerly separate conferences.

During the conference each morning I walked from 6am to 7am with fellow Sage partners Peter Wolf of Azamba Consulting and Robert Wood of DDF Consulting. Each morning we invited others to join us (only one person showed). We thought it might be interesting to record a short portion of our walks.

Below are links to each of the five chats we recorded – as well as our thoughts on the day’s activities.

Sage Summit 2012 Returns To Gaylord National

July 18, 2011

It’s official. Just as Sage Summit 2011 is closing down Sage has announced that the Gaylord Hotel in Nashville TN will be the conference host for Summit 2012.

You may recall that the Gaylord National suffered severe flooding in May 2010. The hotel has been completely rebuilt and re-opened in October 2010.

The conference will once again be a joint partner/customer event. More details as the event draws closer.

Attending Sage Summit 2011 from July 10 to 15, 2011 in DC?

If you’re active on Twitter or LinkedIn there will be a Tweet Up (that’s an informal unsponsored meeting of people who use Twitter or LinkedIN — aka twits) happening on Tuesday July 12, 2011 from 6pm to 7pm.

Making connections at conferences is one of the key reasons that many people attend. Stop by and say hi – and make some new connections in an informal setting with other conference goers.

Thinking about attending Sage Summit 2011? This year’s conference hosted by Sage is geared toward both customers and consultants.

The game plan is for the consultants to roll in for the July 10-15, 2011 time period and the customers can arrive July 12-15. Once again a good time is promised to all (what’s not to love about a resort where it costs well under $5 to transfer from the airport to the front doorstep).

If you’re headed to Washington be sure you keep your ear to the ground to learn of everything that’s happening. All the usual suspects – Twitter, Facebook, Linkedin, YouTube will be buzzing with activity as the date nears.
