The conference was okay, I honestly did not have a wow moment. I did learn a lot but feel that the session where to short. Maybe there could have been less speakers letting them have more time.

I've attended the Austin conference the last 2 years and I was underwhelmed by the one in Boston. A better keynote and more energized speakers would help. More on branch footprint, design and layout/flow would help.

Attendance ws mostly small financial institutions - not the caliber expected. OK content, not a lot of new ideas.

The keynote sessions with sponsors were sales pitches by CEOs and CRM Next was the worst of them, taking over panel discussions and talking over the banks and credit unions. Many attendees were disappointed. The only sponsor that shared insights and research was STRATACACHE. Attendees are there to learn and gain insights. The large bank track was also disappointing - Gilmore was not insightful nor did they share anything of value.

Good venue. Almost all the sponsor presos were sales pitches and that should NOT be allowed. Lots of attendees but mostly small banks and credit unions. Very few large banks attended. Some panels were hijacked by the sponsor and that shouldn't be allowed either.
