I was able to learn exactly what I set out to learn when I registered for the conference.

Jim Emanuelson, Land O’Lakes

Exceptional! The training was great, Oracle's presence with strategic direction, as well as education was perfect, and the vendor response was great.

Roger Brown, Director IS Data Services

Love the hands-on experience; is relevant to real life situations.

Jay Joshi, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid

There is so much information provided. If someone doesn't learn something from Collaborate then they weren't paying attention.

Michael Heindel, DBA for Glatfelter Insurance Group

I was sent as a “scout” from my group to see if Collaborate is worth attending. I have reported this conference is very user/application expert focused and we should continue to participate.

David Mastalski, Billing Manager, Michael Baker Corportation

I was very pleased with the COLLABORATE 09 conference. I was able to get just as much or more from this conference than Oracle OpenWorld as it is not as big. I was able to network, receive Oracle Executive direction, and was able to ask questions at all the presentations.

Kitty Conard, Arizona Public Service

Overall a great conference. A must-attend for all Oracle users.

Mani Kumar Manda, President, Rhapsody Technologies, Inc
