Bill Kutik, who helps with the HR tech show in Chicago, has offered a special savings to CompareHRIS.com and HR-softwareblog.com visitors. The discount we are offering our readers is $500 off the onsite price of $1,695 – just $1,195.
The special promotional code to receive the discounted rate is COMPARE10 (all caps).
Below is a summary, with links, on what to expect at this year’s show. I skipped SHRM this year but will be attending HR tech. I prefer HR tech mostly because I find that more HR technology vendors show up than show up for SHRM. I don’t get a booth or attend any of the events; I just walk the expo hall and chat with my existing and potential vendors for CompareHRIS.com.
“The famous Shootout has become a track this year with up to eight vendors giving 25-minute demos based on our scripted scenario. Bound to have a couple of ERPs and lots of Talent Management vendors. Best way to compare live software, since they will largely be showing you the same thing. If they follow the script and don’t cheat! Which is why we have judges, two of the three bloggers above.”
“The HR Technology® Conference & Expo is the best in the world, at least according to Workday and PeopleSoft founder Dave Duffield, and many of the estimated 18,000 HR practitioners, vendors, consultants, analysts and bloggers who have attended in the last 12 years from 24 countries.
“The source of its popularity and strength is its devotion to education, not to sales. Speaking slots are never sold to vendors or sponsors, and all the session content is vetted in advance by Co-chairs David Shadovitz and Bill Kutik, editor and technology editor of Human Resource Executive magazine.
“Here are just a few of this year’s highlights: the debate between guru Naomi Lee Bloom and Gartner’s Jim Holincheck, Oracle revealing more of Fusion HCM, the legendary Shootout, the Blogger Insight Panel (members not yet chosen), and “Awesome New Technologies for HR” from bleeding edge start-ups (chosen at the last possible second). To see them all, download the pdf of the full conference brochure: http://www.hrtechnologyconference.com/WEB-BROCH.pdf?submit22=Download”
Be great to embed the link for downloading the brochure, since I think it makes the event make more sense than the website, which is not optimally designed. Obviously, please include the link to our home page, www.HRTechnologyConference.com.
