Calling All Great Ideas for Presentations at Cascade Server User's Conference 2009
While we're busy planning sessions, registering attendees, and ordering SWAG, we'd love to hear from you! You, our customers and attendees, are what make the User's Conference so successful, and your input helps us greatly. If you have ideas about the conference - presentations you enjoyed last year, ideas you'd like to hear about this year - let us know in the Cascade Server User's Conference 2009 Idea Exchange that we've set up in our Success Community. And if you'd actually like to present (and gain complimentary admission) at this year's conference, submit a speaker proposal by May 1st, and we'll assist you in crafting an engaging session.
Upcoming Cascade Server release - 6.0 Is On The Way
The release of the latest version of Hannon Hill's flagship CMS is right around the corner; we anticipate that Cascade Server 6.0 will be available for all clients in coming weeks. With 6.0, we're excited to introduce a powerful new feature, Sites, and greatly improve another, Roles. Sites are new Administrative features that are used to segment and manage content, and Roles are now fully customizable and can be further modified to grant users and groups specific abilities on a per-site basis.
We've also utilized our new Success Community in the development and testing of Cascade Server 6.0. The beta release of 6.0 was made available to customers in mid-February on the Success Community, and our Engineering Department has made extensive use of the feedback that users provided in our Cascade Server 6.0 Beta Release Idea Exchange. Look out for Cascade Server 6.0 very soon!
One More Thing to Look Forward to at Cascade Server User's Conference 2009
One of our favorite things about the Cascade Server User's Conference is the open house, when we get a chance to welcome customers to our office and give them a look at where we spend our time. This year, the open house will be even more exciting, as we've recently moved into a really cool new space. Here's a couple of pictures:
