Avanti Computer Systems Limited of Toronto, a leading provider of Print MIS solutions, has concluded its 2017 Avanti User Group Conference May 23 – 26 in Denver, Colorado. The education-focused conference featured over 50 sessions about the Avanti Slingshot and Avanti Classic platforms, as well as industry roundtable discussions for marketing services providers, commercial printers, large/grand format, print & mail, and in-plants. The agenda was packed with information that delivered ROI to attendees. Avanti experts were on hand to answer questions in the “AskAvanti Experts” room throughout the entire conference.
This year’s platinum sponsor, Ricoh, hosted an afternoon of education and roundtables at the Ricoh Customer Experience Center in Boulder, which featured a variety of topics such as reporting, accounting, sales and marketing best practices, as well KPIs, workflow and 3rd-party integrations.
