Testimonials

"Attending the Tech Summit turned out to be one of the most beneficial and educational experiences I was fortunate enough to be a part of in 2006. The breakout sessions were very informative, and the ability to choose which ones to attend enabled me to maximize my experience. I would recommend this to any IT professional who is looking to stay current, and those interested in exploring new technologies."
Gregory Munroe
Genesee Valley BOCES, Network Administrator
"I had a great time. The vendors were very knowledgeable and if they didn’t know about something, they knew of someone who could help. The atmosphere was great, the seminars were very helpful, the speakers were very engaging, not boring. It was a great place to meet other IT professionals and exchange ideas. Over all it was a great experience.
I recommend that all IT professionals attend this summit."

"I attended the Tech Summit and was very impressed. Vendors from the IT arena were well represented. Seminars were highly informative and included topics on security, disaster recovery, infrastructure solutions and environmental concerns, just to name a few. Everything was well organized and the venue was perfect. I look forward to attending another Summit in the future."

"Our IT staff found the NY Tech Summit incredibly valuable – much more than we had anticipated. I am used to NYC-style IT tradeshows. While I consider our company to be of respectable size, at those shows we weren’t even on the vendors’ radar. When we would talk to them, we were either brushed off or given minimal face-time. At the Summit, we had quality face-time with every vendor. We felt like a valued customer and that the vendor was trying to win our business. They demonstrated their products, explained how they could fit into our environment and suggested possible strategies for “selling it” to the Finance-side of the house. The seminars were also very helpful. We were glad to see they weren’t direct vendor sales pitches – but genuine knowledge transfer seminars where, when applicable, some products were highlighted.
Very worthwhile and we greatly appreciated the invitation."

"Your tech summit was first class! I really liked that you had a good cross section representation of equipment vendors and service providers, all being well informed. The education seminars were well planned and an agenda was set in advance; they were short quick and informative. The best part is that I was able to see some new technology, interact with fellow industry peers, and think about the technology and how and where my company can use it today and tomorrow. I appreciate the fact that there was no pressure to buy anything prior, during ,and after the summit."

"The NY Tech Summit offered a myriad of course options for anyone involved in professions related to networking. As a Project Coordinator for Wayne Finger Lakes B.O.C.E.S, I oversee purchasing, acquisition, installation, and support of educational technology. The Summit provided valuable information that has impacted the quality of my work this past year. Information provided on wireless technologies enriched my knowledge base in ways that allowed me to make informed contributions and decisions for the administrators within the school district I serve. Another benefit gained from the time spent at the summit was in the knowledge I acquired regarding audio-visual devices and connectivity. Conversations held with representatives from Cisco, 3Com, APC, and HP led to insights in new product lines and provided the latest technological updates. It was especially rewarding to be able to connect with other professionals in the field and to have conversations about our work in such an enjoyable setting. I look forward to the 2007 NY Tech Summit in June."
