  • Article

The chances of persuading your manager to let you fly over to Las Vegas for the recent annual Microsoft Management Summit were always pretty slim.

Fortunately, the UK team has put together a “Best Of…” event, where you can get all of the best content from the summit, packed into a full day’s agenda on Tuesday 18th May in central London. And unlike the Vegas event, which cost $2,000+, this event is free.

With a number of significant management product releases and announcements planned from Microsoft in the coming year, including some early Beta releases, this event is a valuable investment of your time in discovering how to lower the cost of your IT operations with Microsoft system management technologies.

This 1-day event will provide you with an understanding of the latest technical updates on Desktop, Datacenter and Cloud management features and solutions from Microsoft. The event will share expert knowledge and information, covering current System Center products as well as Windows platform management solutions for virtualisation of servers, desktops and applications.
