Customers enjoy Sage Construction’s first Customer Summit
May 2010April 21st 2010 saw Sage Construction’s first Customer Summit, held at The Belfry hotel and golf club in the West Midlands.
Feedback from the event has been extremely positive and has generated demand to run a second Customer Summit next year. We’ve taken everyone’s comments into account around ways we could improve the day and we are happy to receive more ideas to make next year’s event even better.
“The event was extremely well-organised and the presentations I sat in on were really insightful.”
“It was a really well organised and very professional day – great presentations (both internal and external), a good mix of customers and a great location.”
“I enjoyed the day, it was good to catch up with some of our customers.”
If you missed it, the packed agenda included:
- General Sage/Sage Construction updates
- Break-out sessions by product, providing information about the direction of our customers’ software systems and some top tips

- Updates from some of Sage Construction's key partners, including Microsoft and IBM reseller ITPS
- A talk from Simons Group about sustainability and how legislation relating to carbon usage has affected the way they approach their projects
