Getting ready to head home from sunny Orlando after having been at Avectra’s AUDC 2011 Conference. Overall, this was a really good experience. It seems that Avectra is maturing as a software company more every year. This year there was a lot of focus on the partner environment, the product(s) roadmap, and community involvement (the User Group had a huge representation). Frankly, I was pretty amazed to see so many people and organizations already working with SharePoint 2010 (which is a good thing). While there were a lot of attendees that I spoke with that are using SharePoint in a variety of projects, there were also a lot of vendors that now implement SharePoint as well. That really speaks to the adoption of the new platform and the demand that is clearly out there. I got to see a lot of friends, colleagues, and clients, and I look forward to working with all of them this year.
Now I’m preparing for SharePointConference.org next week in Baltimore, MD. I still have a lot of work to do to prepare fot his conference, since I’m co-presenting the keynote on Tuesday morning, moderating a Business Intelligence roundtable, and also presenting two sessions. I look forward to seeing you all there.
AUDC 2011 is over – SharePointConference.org is next week!
