Ready for MODEX 2012

CMS GlobalSoft is anxiously counting down the days to MODEX 2012! The booth is ready, our travel has been booked, giveaways have arrived (Xbox 360 kinect is my personal favorite), and the collateral has been shipped. Now on February 4th CMS GlobalSoft will descend upon Atlanta, GA to exhibit at MODEX, the industry’s newest trade expo for manufacturing, distribution and supply chain industries. In addition, to catching up with partners we look forward to listening to the daily keynotes featuring CSCMP's Rick Blasgen on the state of logistics and supply chain management, Panama Canal CEO Alberto Alemán Zubieta on the impact of the Panama Canal expansion and Georgia Tech's Donald Ratliff on how supply chain and logistics performance impacts trade. But above all we are excited about talking with attendees and getting the chance to show off the upcoming release of WorldLink (Generation Xi). If you’re attending the show, make sure to stop by booth 4128 and get entered into a drawing for the Xbox 360 Kinect. Hope to see you in Atlanta!

User Conference Recap

In October, more than fifty CMS GlobalSoft’s customers and partners from across the country descended on Las Vegas for two days of learning and networking at the 2011 WorldLink User Conference. This year’s conference provided attendees with a chance to hear from all of the major carriers and get the first look at Generation Xi – the next generation of WorldLink. The conference was designed to fit the needs of every level of user, offered many opportunities for product feedback, idea exchanges, and hands-on help.

CMS GlobalSoft’s first technical presentation was given by Director of Development, Majd Alkassem. His presentation, called “The Future of CMS – Generation Xi,” covered the next generation of WorldLink. The 2012 release of WorldLink Xi certainly doesn’t disappoint.  Improvements to the product & functions are sure to please everyone.

The second technical presentation was given by Vice President & COO, Richard Ortiz. His presentation “The Product Calendar” covered WorldLink’s product roadmap and the product changes that took place in 2011.

On Monday afternoon David Zaleski, CMS’s Support Manager, presented “What’s New in Support” which included the improvements to customer support and the addition of online training offerings.

The last presentation by CMS GlobalSoft was given by Director of Projects, Josh Eubank. His presentation, called “Enhancements & SOW Process,” reviewed the new structure of the enhancement protocol and the SOW Process.

In addition to CMS GlobalSoft speakers, we were fortunate to have various partners and carriers speak at this year’s conference.  Jim Thannuum with FedEx kicked off the Partner presentations by speaking about Emerging Technology.

CMS GlobalSoft’s newest partner, SATO, had Rodger Morrison speak about “The Benefits of Double Sided Printing” – an excellent way to save both time and money.

Mike Rude, with FedEx, offered an excellent presentation on “Steering LTL in a new direction” and lastly, SCLogic presented “Inbound Logistics and Accountability” which discussed using all Carrier Data and your ERP system to deliver accountability in your inbound receiving operations.

Thank you to everyone who attended the 2011 User Conference.
