Two weeks after the first session of our ARIS 10 Partner Enablement we were pleased to welcome again 28 partners from 11 countries in Saarbruecken, Home of ARIS.
We were happy to welcome new faces in the partner community. But most of them know ARIS for many, many years and so they were not only interested in all the new stuff coming with ARIS 10: As long-term associates they were of course invited to the big birthday party for ARIS which took place the first training day. And as the partner ecosystem is very important for us, we were really happy that Gerd Ottosson, Ferrologic, representative for the active partner network gave his greetings in the official ceremony.
The blog from Mark Straathof, Blue Lanes, shows that this was not only a highlight for us but also for our guests.
Beside all the networking and party we had an ambitious program to learn all about ARIS 10. As last time we structured the agenda to start with installation and migration. Second day was reserved for hands-on and 3rd day we split for technical Q&A sessions or strategy sessions with product management. New this year were the future workshops where we offered after the official agenda the opportunity to have a preview on new features coming soon.
The whole meeting was not only appreciated by our partners (the excellent feedback sheets proof that ). It was also interesting for the R&D people to see how our partners handle with the new functionality and where might be room for minor improvements. Especially with the future workshops they get an early feedback on new topics. As also last time Aware, the new dashboarding solution, got excellent feedback. Our partners see also a great potential and we are really curious to get feedback from their first projects.
After tree busy days partners as well as employees were perfectly satisfied and all are looking forward to the next Partner Enablement Meeting.
Thanks to the colleagues for preparing and managing the sessions.
And thanks to our partners for joining us here in ARIS City!
