VMware VMUG at Marriott

The venue at which this year’s VMware User Group was held was much better than a year or two ago. Registration was streamlined, although it was not very clear to find the vendor booth at which parking was validated at. We were repeatedly referred to «CMT» booth. What did CMT stand for? Oh. It’s a VENDOR. What made it worse was that vendors left at a certain time, and so for those who did not get validated before that time were out of luck when CMT had already left. A friend had to jump through hoops with the hotel staff to get her parking validated. VMware should have been the ones responsible for parking validation.
Food was much improved. Instead of handing out sandwich lunch bags, it was buffet style this time around.
Presentations were less focused on a presenting company’s products, but more on the topic at hand.
This was a good event.
