Sage Summit 2019 East and West Coast Locations Released

November 7, 2018 by Wayne Schulz

Sage North America is reintroducing its Sage Summit conference in 2019. Instead of one big conference, Sage has decided to host two conferences – one on the West Coast and one on the East Coast.

During 2018 Sage hosted a series of six one-day Sage Sessions events across North America. These events were designed to be more convenient for customers and partners to attend since many would not have to travel overnight to reach one of the six stops on the Sage Session tour.

Update February 16, 2019: Read our analysis of Sage Summit San Diego which was held February 13-15, 2019

According to the Sage mailer:

We are thrilled to bring back Sage Summit in 2019 at two locations! You are invited to join us in San Diego on Feb 13–15 or in Atlanta on May 13–15.

With an audience of accountants, small-to-medium-sized businesses, and partners, we will focus on global cloud technology with relevant content, connections, and experiences that will provide actionable takeaways for future business success.

Each Sage Summit event will kick-off with an exclusive Partner’s Day, where you will learn more from Sage executives on market changes, our product strategy and dive deeper into product integrations. The day will end with a Welcome Reception for all Summit attendees.

Sage Sessions: Construction and Real Estate will be held in Portland, OR, on April 24-26, and will focus exclusively on Sage CRE solutions. For Sage Business Cloud Enterprise Management, Sage Sessions: Enterprise Management will be held in October 2019. Separate communications will be sent with more details for those events.

If you’re looking to add credit card / ACH payments, warehouse management or cloud hosting to your Sage 100cloud system, visit our sponsors at the Sage Summit events:

APS Payments – integrated payment processing ( credit card, ACH ) for Sage 100 & Sage 100cloud, Sage 300 & Sage 300cloud, Acumatica, Adagio, SAP B1 and QuickBooks.

Registration for Sage Summit San Diego and Atlanta open on November 20, 2018, and February 13, 2019, respectively. Pricing and a detailed agenda should be available shortly before the start of registration.

The content for both of the Sage Summit events will be identical so you only need to register for one event.

Sage Sessions Review: Los Angeles February 13, 2018

February 27, 2018 by Wayne Schulz

Earlier this year Sage announced that in 2018 instead of holding larger Sage Summit customer conferences they would have a series of regional events.

A total of 10 North America Sage Sessions are scheduled with 6 scheduled in U.S.A and 4 in Canada. Many of our customers have been curious about the format of Sage Sessions and whether it’s an event they should attend.

What Is Sage Sessions?

As described by Sage:

“the best of Sage with a series of regional events throughout the U.S. and Canada, called Sage Sessions. Our goal is to meet our customers and partners where they do business.”

Each stop offers a full-day event with a keynote, breakout sessions, and a networking reception—and provide time for you to host your customer appreciation and other activities

DSD Business Systems was at the first Sage Sessions in Los Angeles with a booth displaying our enhancements for Sage 100.

We took lots of notes so we could share and compare Sage Sessions to Sage Summit.

Sage Sessions 2018 Review

We summarized the thoughts of all 9 DSD Business Systems staffers who attended to answer the question – Is this an event you should attend?
