I've been for the last several years. They have been good, but in my
opinion have been gradually lacking with each subsequent year. Veritas
knows what I'm talking about, I've talked with several people last year and
the year prior (whether they remember or not, well that's a different
story.). Remember, this is supposed to be a USER'S conference.
I guess my question to all who are thinking about attending:
What do you hope to get out of Vision? Who do you hope to hear speaking and
giving the presentations? What topics are the hottest for you? What should
a USER's conference really be?
For those that attended last year - QUICK - What is the most memorable part
of the conference? ...really
I don't know about the rest of you, but I have never seen an email from
Veritas posted to this list asking us what WE want at the USER's
conference...have you?
In the end, I still thought each conference was worth it...Veritas does a
pretty good job all in all.

I haven't attended any Veritas conferences yet, but I am registered for
this upcoming one. I was thinking about registering last year, but they
didn't post what the breakout sessions were really going to be until
after I had determined that I wouldn't go afterall. This year, I'm
going anyway, even without knowing what the breakouts are. If last year
is any indicator, the breakout sessions will be on the web page about 2
weeks or so before the conference.
You have to walk through the reg process before finding out the costs.
Mine came up with right around $1000 for the conference itself, and
about $179 or so per night for the hotel. Registering a "guest", so
they can attend the evening events costs about $150 or something like
that.
I'd also be curious as to others opinions on any previous Veritas
conference they've been to.
