Last week was the WellPoint Systems Regional User Conference in Calgary. Over 45 attendees were at the event and shared their WellPoint experiences with each other as well as WellPoint staff. It was a very positive atmosphere, with customers stating their appreciation of the event. The sessions were productive, with great conversation and interaction between the participants. Some of the feedback was:

“It was good to hear about WellPoint’s strategies for the future”
“I learned some things that I can go back to the office and take advantage of immediately”
“The pricing module in Energy Broker in absolutely the most robust I’ve seen – bar none”
“WellPoint listened to (and has already implemented) the suggestions I made at the Houston conference. I’m back to make more suggestions”
“Thank you for putting on a conference for USERS”
“The small classes offered a setting conducive to good conversations”
“Your new website looks great! The things you are doing to market WellPoint look really good”
