SEMINARS “The OAUG Connection Point conference came at a perfect time for us. We have felt a bit isolated and disconnected from the larger EPM/BI community since going live with Hyperion Planning earlier this year. This conference not only allowed us to make connections with the larger community, but also learn highly valuable information about best practices and future Oracle roadmaps. We’re excited to continue our relationship with the OAUG and look forward to working together in the future.” – Connection Point 2011 EPM/BI Attendee
