We were intending to follow up our show opening video with a recap at the end of our time in Barcelona, but our booth ended up being so inundated on the final day that there simply wasn’t chance.
However, that our booth was inundated gives you somewhat of an idea of how the week went compared to our hopes and expectations. We were simply blown away.
We’d never before seen such enthusiasm and interest – across the board, from customers to partners to HP folk. And the people we spoke to were all confirming the things that we’ve been saying all along – that reporting from HP Service Manager is difficult without a dedicated end-to-end solution.
David vH and I seemed to be on an endless rotation of demos for interested parties and almost everyone I spoke with got it straight away – they understood the value proposition of SMI Suite and seemed genuinely excited about what the solution could do for them, and how it could impact their organization.
If there was any negative from the event, it was getting home. While my flight back to Boston actually landed 40 minutes early, Floris got stuck in Dublin overnight when his first delayed flight meant he missed his connection. He assures me the Guinness helped.
