ND8 Upgrade Seminar summary for San Francisco
Tags :Domino 8
After completing yet another city for the ND8 Upgrade Seminar, I am always surprised by the upgrade plans of the crowd and where they sit today. This was no different.
- Everyone was at least in the 6.x realm for current versions.
- A small percentage (like 10) had installed the Notes 8 client on their desktops
- Most did not have enough memory on all machines so they will roll out as the basic version
- Server upgrade plans varied from a few weeks to sometime next year, yes as in 2009
- Sametime at one company was discouraged as a nuisance of sorts and was not allowed
- Everyone was happy to see the gutter return to the inbox in 8.5
- Platforms are always a discussion for the server
- A couple sites had no firm date for the upgrades at all
- No one had logged into im.bleedyellow.com
- Everyone liked the free tools we give away
I could go on, but with all the excitement in the core Lotus blog community, we lose focus often. We play with the latest and greatest while many larger shops are stuck with whatever gets decided by management. We should sit back and realize there are over 100 million users, most of whom never even go to PlanetLotus.org to get the latest and greatest.
