Here are the slides to my session I just completed at the Engage conference.
This session was and is aimed at junior admins that need to find better, faster ways to do some redundant tasks.
If you have any questions just ask me. The code used is not perfect and alternative options do exist but for an admin with little to no development knowledge, I hope this saves you time and provides reasons for your users, and manager, to love you even more.
Woke up this morning to a message that I was selected to be an HCL Master for 2020, along with over 100 other people around the world that believe in a product line that many think disappeared years ago.
It is alive and looking forward again instead of the rear view mirror.
Thank you to everyone who voted on my behalf, whoever you are, wherever you are, that you thought I was, or am, on the right track.
Guess I need to do some work for 2020.
See you all at Engage 2020 if not sooner in our travels.
A little bit historical symbolism inside, a little bit new, and 100% of the future!

Many of you just got V10, or have yet to take that leap, but HCL has got you covered and wants you to move to V11.
So what do you think? Are you spry enough to update this time? If not, let me know, I am happy to handle it for you.
If you thought HCL was just milking the support money and not expanding the products, you lost that bet, and will continue to lose that bet for a few years out, but you have to tune in to find out why and how.
If you thought Notes and Domino were old and not caught up with the times, you may be pleasantly surprised to see changes that will stretch life longer because 30 year old(software) know a lot more than an under 5 year old(startup) about how you run your company, and integrate your business to the world as a whole, not just to one vendor, or one country.
In software terms, not many other software has survived this long and still produced money and ROI for companies using it, DOS still runs Windows, so that may be the only thing everyone still uses.
If you say email doesn't make you money, tell that to online stores and entities that rely on automated orders and ticketing systems.
Down time hurts, big time!
If you require on premises servers, you have come to the right place!
If your fear is the Cloud apps will get stuck, yes, on premises has down time too, YOU can control the situation and get your self back up, something not available to you when you are 100% Cloud indebted.
I hear the young people saying no one uses email, everything is in Slack and their integrations into products we use.
Maybe
But did you ever meet a person on the street that uses slack?
Neither have I.
But they ALL use email. They also use instant messengers but the bridge from the IM to email is still not there, yet...
So tune in December 4th 9am Eastern time, if you want to be part of the next generation of collaborative software.
