Parallel to our 3rd European Collaboration Summit sponsorship, 2020 marks our premier platinum sponsorship of the North American equivalent, The North American Collaboration Summit (NACS). Rather than being a pure on-site event, NACS is now offering a hybrid conference, which we will be taking advantage of. We will be representing panagenda virtually on NACS Teams and are pumped to strengthen the foothold of OfficeExpert in the US and beyond.

If you've already registered to attend and are yet to be introduced to OfficeExpert but don't want to wait, you can get a feel for it using our OfficeExpert sandbox.

Title: Analyzing Teams engagement & adoption: Why, What & How?
Time: September 30th, 2:50pm (CDT)
Speaker: Ben Menesi
Abstract: For most organizations deploying Teams, only about 16% of employees turn out to be early adopters – arguably a wasted adoption budget.

In this hybrid technical & adoption session, you will learn from real-world customer examples where usage and engagement analysis has helped others like you conquer common adoption problems.

You will see how Admin Center, Office 365 Activity Reports, Microsoft Graph & PowerShell can serve as data goldmines for your organization's usage patterns. The insights you gain can be used to increase and sustain user adoption rates beyond what you thought possible.

At the end of this seminar, you will be thoroughly prepared to achieve your adoption goals by understanding:

• the strengths and limitations of the data available to you
• how to interpret and instantly use this data to maximize and sustain user engagement
• how to generate the best possible return on your investment

“Which applications are used and unused?” is a central question in nearly every Notes/Domino migration or modernization project. Getting that information just when you need it can make all the difference in successfully setting up and driving your project.

There are various sources for usage numbers and they greatly differ in terms of accessibility, quality and thereby usefulness in your project. Join Franz Walder in this webinar to learn about their strengths, weaknesses and how to best utilize them to your advantage.

Having accurate usage numbers will also be a powerful tool in determining consolidation potential and thereby license cost savings potential. Find out which users you do not need licenses for anymore, because they haven’t accessed Notes recently. Combining information on inactive users and unused applications will also enable you to realize where server licenses can be saved due to under-utilization.

Who should watch?
Administrator/Architect: In-depth look at Domino application data analytics
Modernization/ Migration Engineer: Successfully set up and drive your project
Project Managers: Empower you to create a bullet-proof transition plan

For most organizations deploying Teams, only about 16% of employees turn out to be early adopters. That means, if you are or will be engaged in a Teams deployment, you’ve only got another 84% to get on board to ensure adoption budget isn’t wasted.

In this hybrid technical & adoption session, you will learn from real-world customer examples how usage and engagement analysis has helped others like you overcome common adoption problems. We will go through all the available data sources such as the Teams Admin Center, Office365 Activity Reports, Microsoft Graph & PowerShell and how you can put them to work to better understand your organization's usage patterns.

You will leave with a thorough understanding of the strengths and limitations of the data available to you and how to interpret and use this data to maximize user engagement in the shortest amount of time and ensure the best possible return on your investment.
