Another Successful Annual Conference
for Clients!
Staten
Island, NY (May 26, 2009) - Celerant Technology’s 2009 User
Conference was held May 7-8 at the beautiful Gaylord Palms Resort
and Convention Center in Orlando, Florida! Last year we again
allowed our clients to vote for where they wanted the event to
be held and received an overwhelming response for sunny Orlando.
This year’s conference included a similar format to last
year’s line-up of break-out sessions, training sessions,
and workshops. In an effort to enhance learning, more training
sessions and open discussions were added to increase interaction
between moderators and attendees.
Paul Rowe of Whole Earth Provision, based in Austin, TX said “The
conferences get better every year. It's a great advantage to get
a chance to talk personally with the people in sales, support,
and development that we work with all year. There are levels of
communication that just can't be achieved through email and telephone
calls. We get a chance to compare experiences and share solutions,
tricks, and shortcuts with other customers too, which is always
valuable. This year, we got a chance for some hands-on time with
the latest and greatest version just released. In sheer dollars,
the value of what we learn is more than the cost of attending.
And, by participating in the customization breakout sessions,
we also get a great chance to have input on a new feature and
solidify our working relationship with those involved in development.”
“The
2009 User Conference was the first for our company and I am glad
we went,” added Chris Simons, IT Manager for Mast General
Store. “The sessions were all very informative and not only
helped us with our everyday operations but we were also able to
meet and talk with other users of the software. The ability to
network with other companies facing the same challenges as we
are is a tremendous asset that can only help us to improve and
grow as a company. It was also great meeting the people we’ve
been talking to but never had a face to put with the voice. I
am looking forward to the upcoming changes in the software and
to the User Conference next year.”
Tim
Heinzen, President of Barney’s Police and Hunting Supply
said “I thought the conference was GREAT! We always learn
something new and it was very refreshing to see so many updates
come to fruition. The company does listen to its customers’
needs. The conference in and of itself is awesome to be able to
meet and collaborate with other users and it is more than worth
it. Fantastic job and keep up the good work!” Kevin Senecal,
President of Divers Direct agreed “It was very exciting
to learn about the direction of future enhancements to the Celerant
product. An additional benefit to this event was the opportunity
to learn how other retailers are using Celerant. It was very enlightening
for our entire team that attended.”
The
2009 User Conference was an educational and networking opportunity
for clients, and also a way for Celerant professionals to create
a closer relationship with each of the clients in attendance.
More training sessions, break-out sessions and interactive workshops
were added, including a hands-on workshop to look at the new features
in Celerant Command. Every session was pre-selected by each attendee.
More open discussions were also encouraged throughout each session.
“Our
2009 Celerant User Conference was a definite success,” stated
Ian Goldman, CEO/President of Celerant Technology. “Every
year we strive to make a positive impact on our clients and provide
them with an educational and interactive environment where they
can learn more about the system and work one-on-one with our staff.
In addition to the New Features presentation, we introduced a
hands-on workshop for users to actually ‘try out’
these new features, many of which were suggestions for development
modifications from last year’s conference. At Celerant we
strive to create retail software that exceeds the needs of our
clients and look forward to the continued feedback throughout
the year.” Research has already begun to determine the location
for next year’s User Conference and we will once again allow
our clients to vote on their city of choice. We hope that next
year’s conference will be another great success!
