The Wendia North American team warmly thanks all attendees at the recent “POB – The Cure for What Ails You” Conference that was held at the Zermatt Resort, Midway, Utah, last week. The conference was a great success with well-received customer and partner presentations, interesting sessions and lots of networking. Various sessions ran in parallel aimed at different people, while in the main conference room, especially the presentations on the new interfaces were a big hit.

Customers attending all seemed eager to move to the latest release, 1.10. Among the popular new things in POB that Kevin Goertzen presented was the POB Virtual Agent, the Amazon Echo Skill of opening cases in POB through voice. Several customers are now going to test that functionality.

This year’s Customer-Partner Conference is approaching fast and Wendia North America is happy to present a draft agenda for the conference. If you have not registered yet, Wendia North America really encourages you to do so, as a lot of new and exciting things will be covered. More information will be sent out as the time draws nearer, meanwhile if you have any questions, feel free to contact Susan Miller.

Do you sometimes feel you do not see the whole G6, are you on occasion confused about the modules and what they can do for your business, do you want to do more with POB? Then mark your calendar for March 31st and April 1st, 2020, where next year’s user conference in Scandinavia will focus on the overall picture and coherence of POB G6. Wendia North America’s Kevin Goertzen will give an inspiring presentation of POB G6 from A to Z, answering questions like how is the solution built, which needs do the individual modules meet, and in which order would the modules normally be implemented. In addition, the two days also feature user presentations, round-table discussions, a POB Q&A session and much more.

The conference will be held in a location near Oslo, Norway, to be determined. More information about the conference will be made available over the summer and in the fall, in the meantime if you have any questions please contact Maja Seilund.

Copenhagen presented itself from its best side with a lot of sun and spring-like temperatures, when the participants arrived at the AC Bella Sky Hotel for the conference, and many had chosen to arrive the day prior to the conference to spend some time in Copenhagen.

The first day of the conference featured customer presentations and round-table discussions, along with a Wendia-hosted POB Q&A session, whereas day 2 was dedicated to various POB presentations by Wendia after the general assembly in the morning. Judging by the survey feedback the attendees enjoyed the presentations and benefited from the inspiration and knowledge sharing, and are (very) likely to participate in next year’s conference!

As always, Arne Kolstø, Wendia Norway, took a lot of great photos during the two days. In the image above you can see retiring chairman Göran Wihlgaard, Atea Sweden, welcoming the 60 participants. More images from the conference can be seen here.

At the general assembly PUG had to say goodbye to two board members, Göran Wihlgaard and Morten Skaarud, Lovisenberg hospital, but could welcome two new: Jenny Clarén, Atea Sweden, and Kim Skotte Larsen, Herning municipality, who will join long-time board member Øyvind Sand, Norian.
