I've got a bunch of posts from other people to catch up on so I'm going to wrap up some of my own Convergence coverage here and move on.
- We finished as the number 1 rated concurrent session for all of Convergence, not just GP. We were also the number 4 rated speakers overall at Convergence. We're proud of this not because we were good but because it says we delivered value and we made it fun.
- The 50 tips gets a semi-permanent link at the top right of the page. Plenty of people have already gone looking for it.
- The FRx situation is a big mess. Other folks have better coverage and I point to some relevant articles next.
- Word reports in GP 11 are very cool. Except if you look hard and ask some tough questions you'll find that they are still based on an underlying Report Writer report so don't let your Report Writer skills lapse.
- Email features in GP 11 look very good as do BP dashboards, and Customer/Vendor portals.
- Some (most?) of the features that we want in Project Accounting for GP 11 are not expected to be in there.
- Extender is getting some great new functionality and a price increase to go with it so buy before August.
- Microsoft financing opportunities are there if you want to use Bill and Steve's money instead of yours. Think no payments for 6 months.
