2008 User Conference Makes a Big Splash in Florida
 |
I truly enjoyed the conference. I was able to meet others who hold the
same position and are local. This allows for additional support. The resort, location and resort staff were superb.
Alison Levine was the icing on the cake for me. I felt truly inspired. The whole conference from beginning to end was
a wonderful experience. - 2008 User conference attendee |

The Elite User Conference was held this year from June 23–25 in Hollywood, Florida. Entitled “Set to Shine,” the three-day event took place at the Westin Diplomat Resort & Spa where clients from around the world gathered to learn, network and meet with Elite partners.
The conference curriculum included over 150 tutorials and sessions, product updates and panel discussions focusing on the Elite Enterprise, Elite 3E and ProLaw product lines. Attendees interacted with Elite’s business partners and sponsors in the Exhibit Hall where clients were able to network with our partners and learn more about their products and services. The Learning Lab provided valuable one-on-one interaction with Elite and ProLaw experts giving attendees the opportunity to discuss their most pressing issues, gain helpful tips and get answers to their questions.
The conference began with keynote speaker Alison Levine inspiring attendees with her multi-media presentation “Oxygen Not Required.” As the leader of the first American Women’s Everest Expedition, she has survived avalanches, sub-zero temperatures and a career on Wall Street.

The keynote speaker, Alison Levine really enhanced interest in learning
and set the tone for the overall excitement of the conference. It was an absolutely phenomenal way to start the event
at a beautiful location with easy access to the conference from
the accommodations. - 2008 User conference attendee |

At the Club Mambo reception participants had the chance to mingle with other attendees and over 40 exhibitors. The Whiskey A Go Go Gala Dinner transported everyone to the music and fashions of the sixties and seventies.
Attendees heard from key executives during the general sessions. Steve Buege, president & CEO, spoke to clients about Elite’s three focus areas for 2008: software quality, service quality, and expertise. Dan Tacone, senior vice president, talked about the current industry topic of business intelligence.
After three full days of speakers, sessions, one-on-one training and visits to the Cyber Café and Learning Lab, attendees left the conference empowered with information on how Elite products can help their firms achieve their strategic goals, while looking forward to next year’s conference at the newly-built Hilton San Diego Bayfront, June 9–11.
We would like to thank all of our exhibitors and sponsors for making this year's conference a huge success. We could not have done it without your support. We look forward to seeing you at next year's conference June 9–11 in San Diego.
