Well AL,
that sounds almost unbelievable, but I think I'll stick with this group. This is the place we can get feedback with no hidden "if"'s and "but"'s not, "sure we can do that just $$$" and all other things a huge corporation does to its customers.
I'm sorry to say, but with the acception of a few people in your organization, everyone shows that kind of attitude and I find it hard to believe that all of a sudden, the OFFICIAL Vantage user group will be anything different.
For the money we pay to just run this program from year to year, I don't think we get enough input and feedback included in the price. This group has been more help to me, that all the calls I placed to Epicor Support, especially, since most of my recent calls have been directed to custom programming, which must get there price list from Mars.

I'd like jump in here. My name is Al DeWitt and I am the current
Secretary of the Epicor Users Group (EUG). I, along with Jeff
Glaze, would like to invite you to consider the joining the EUG.
Why join the EUG?
- The EUG is the one user group officially recognized by Epicor.
- EUG members get a discount to Perspectives that (almost) pays
for the cost of the membership if you send one person and you
actually save money if you send two or more.
- Epicor Avanté users have developed a great network of SIGs and
are currently using that to prioritize enhancements to their
product. We would love to help get your SIGs organized and your
voice heard.
If you would like more information feel free to check our our
website: www.epicorusers.org or contact me or the EUG Vantage
Liaison, Jeff Glaze.
Thanks for reading.
