9 - Comet

Expect to see just a few postings from me right  before, then right after our quarterly meetings.  As such, please take 2 minutes to read and respond.    This Alteryx Community has a deep well of expertise.

 

Overall,it was a relaxed, fun and informative meeting with ten enthusiastic analysts and Alteryx users, which feels like a solid start.

 

Thank you, @AshwinAbhyankar, for presenting “Analytics to Drive Win-Wins for Corporations and Customers”.  Thanks also to attendees for the enthusiasm and ideas.

 

Our Next Meeting is tentatively Tuesday, January 17, 5:30-7:30pm, KPMG (3rd Tuesday of month)

 

 

Notes:

  • Alteryx Skill Levels of attendees: All are welcome. Current we seem to have one+ veterans, many intermediates and a few novices.
  • Attendees liked meeting format with mixer in middle. Agreed to self-fund our mixer food ‘n bevs w/ voluntary attendee donations,
