Interested in an Acumatica User Group in your area?
Last night we held the inaugural AUG Ohio gathering in Columbus, Ohio. This was the first in-person Acumatica User Group gathering since the pandemic began in 2020 (at least as far as I know).
Two additional people showed up after we took the picture above, bringing our total to 10 people, including Laura Jaffe (remote) who was going to drive down from Cleveland, but had to cancel last minute due to weather concerns.
10 people is not bad for an initial gathering. I’m sure that we’ll have more next time, especially since I already have a list of people who I’ll be bugging for next time 😃
Ya, I’m talking about you Bob Black, Bronwyn Duprey, and Claire Walton from Aktion Associates, Inc. Also Michael Oswalt and Mimi Bertram from Algorithm, Inc. Also Chris Isbell from Martin and Associates. Or maybe Corey Clay and Jim Gross from NexTec Group? Or anyone from Charleys Philly Steaks? Or anyone that Fred Reiter knows from his company’s Ohio location. Or maybe an Acumatica employee like Luis Pingarrón, Maja Talevska Milenkovska, Ruslan Devyatko, or Todd Kuhns from the Acumatica office here in Columbus? Or maybe Chris Hackett will fly in to attend? Or maybe Gabriel Michaud will fly in (yes, Velixo came up multiple times last night)?
I’ll also be going through the Acumatica users listed on this map (click here), looking for people around the Ohio area.
The room capacity is 60 so we have plenty of space to grow.
The Group Time format seemed to go well last night.

We’re planning to gather again in May, in a few months, and we’ll be using a private “AUG Ohio” forum on AUGForums.com to discuss things that came up last night, vote on things for our next gathering, and keep track of who is planning to come to the next gathering.
Stay tuned for an Acumatica Podcast episode with feedback from the group about what went well last night, what didn’t go well, and ideas about how to make things better for the next gathering in May. Keep an eye on the Podcast page (click here) for the Podcast episode.
What Acumatica User Group will be gathering in-person next? Joel Gress in Atlanta? Patricia Bennett and Neil Cantral in Seattle? Mark Solberg and Arline Welty in Chicago? Justine Crowley and Nicole Ronchetti in the Northeast? Ron Fairchild and Terry Culbertson in Texas? Jim Woodhead in Southern California?
