GPUG Summit 2015 was amazing. We met lots of new attendees; presented at the ‘Dynamics GP Streamlined: Stay in the Fast Lane’ session; hosted the ‘Dynamics Idol Contest’ and had so much fun learning.
We learned SO many tips and bits of information – here are a few of our top takeaways:

‘Dynamics GP Streamlined: Stay in the Fast Lane’ session Re-peat
If you went to GPUG Summit and missed our ‘Dynamics GP Streamlined: Stay in the Fast Lane’ session or didn’t make it GPUG Summit....GREAT NEWS! We’re repeating this session as part of the “GPUG Year-End Series” on Thursday, December 10th.

Of course we loved all the networking we were able to do other partners, vendors and customers while attending and hosting sessions; walking the expo; and even cheering on a customer/friend who lost her game by 1 pin during the fantastic FastPath bowling event (not against us J)! We finalized a partnership with Njevity for cloud hosting throughout the week, found a couple of perfect solutions from SalesPad for a customer not in attendance and will hopefully Re-Launch the Oregon GPUG Chapter once again after talking about it at the lunch tables!
Lastly, we were able to host a wonderful Customer Appreciation Lunch on Thursday, Oct 15th with individual meetings and dinners throughout the event. There was a great turn out and this gave us a chance to celebrate our clients and their immense contribution to our success.
At Collins Computing, we hold monthly sharing webcasts to be certain our clients are up-to-date on all tips, news, promotions, and highlights surrounding their Microsoft Dynamics implementations. If you want to know MORE about any of the topics above, we encourage you to check out our offerings and knowledge sharing techniques by contacting us anytime, or following us on one of our social media connections, or watching a video we’ve shared!
We hope to see you next year in Tampa, FL!
