the most comprehensive schedule of classes and training
sessions on a wide variety of topics. Whether you’re new to
SedonaOffice or seasoned veteran, the 2009 SedonaOffice
Users Conference will be of benefit for you.

SedonaOffice Lab – Expanded by 400% |
Last year
we introduced the SedonaOffice Lab, and it was such a huge
success we have quadrupled the size of the SedonaOffice Lab
for the 2009 Users Conference. The SedonaOffice Lab will be
moved to the main conference area for easy access and
expanded to include 12 workstations to highlight and
demonstrate all the SedonaOffice application modules and
add-on modules. The SedonaOffice Lab hours will also be
expanded to ensure easy access and plenty of time to review
and answer all your questions.
Throughout the SedonaOffice conference in conjunction with
the SedonaOffice Lab, all our business partners will be
displaying and demonstrating their applications and
solutions. You’ll be able to test drive and demonstrate
their solutions and meet with the representative from each
of these companies to answer all your questions.
