“The OrgSync Connect Conference was a great opportunity to network with colleagues from OrgSync campuses across the country. It was great to discover how other institutions utilize the software and learn their best practices. The OrgSync Team was also very hospitable and did a great job to accommodate many different interests through the breakout sessions.”

Eric Rossow Coordinator of Information Management, Center for Student Involvement and Leadership The University of Iowa

“I enjoyed the conference because we were able to learn from other institutions about innovative ways to utilizing OrgSync, which affirms our decision of choosing OrgSync as our primary tool for student engagement. Additionally, it was a great opportunity to meet with developers and our campus consultant to make plans for future use of OrgSync. The most exciting part of attending was hearing about the launch of new updates - felt as if we were at the Apple convention!”

Martise Cooks Coordinator of Student Organizations DePaul University

“We came home from the conference with a better understanding of what OrgSync had to offer, how we could use the tools more effectively, and an overall vision of how OrgSync could be used at our campus. From ideas gathered at the OrgSync Connect conference we were able to re-launch this fall, implement the service umbrella, and are using OrgSync to enhance our assessment practices.”

April Barnes Director of Student Life Eastern Kentucky University

“The OrgSync User Conference was a great way to connect with colleagues nationwide who are using the tool to better enhance student experiences. It was great to hear and see how other institutions have adapted the tool to benefit a variety of functional areas – leadership programs, student activities, fraternity/sorority life, student organizations, etc. The Conference also allowed us the opportunity to meet the OrgSync staff in person and share with them all of the ways OrgSync has improved our operations and overall efficiency.”

Alison Doehring Coordinator of Civic Engagement University of Akron

“I really enjoyed meeting the team. Each of them spent a lot of time answering questions for the users and I think that really helped people understand there were humans behind the product.”

Andrew Barras User Experience Designer Full Sail University

“It felt so productive to be able to share best practices and ideas face-to-face with the team that develops and drives OrgSync year-round. You could feel the OrgSync team was taking away just as much information from each discussion and presentation as we were. OrgSync immediately took the feedback they received and began tailoring new features and updates to meet our needs.”

Harriet Baker Unit Coordinator of Student Organizations TexasTech University

“Attending and presenting at the first OrgSync Connect conference was a great experience. The opportunity to interact with colleagues, share ideas and learn about the new updates was both engaging and rewarding. The entire OrgSync staff made everyone feel welcomed and a part of the family, including the great time at the headquarters. Looking forward to OrgSync Connect 2013!”
