Feedback – Past MAC events: 

"Thank you very much for the invitation to the MAC event and for the great organization. I really appreciated it! The conference was of great value to me. IBM clarified aspects of the current product lines and gave me insight into what is coming up next. It was especially good to see that the other participants had similar issues whilst choosing IBM products. I think IBM appreciates getting feedback from the users so this kind of event is really worth repeating. The IBM staff were very enthusiastic about their new product "JAZZ" and they made me keen on trying it myself! What I really have to say is that the IBM staff were very open-minded and offered their help in every respect! Great! The organization of the event was perfect. It was a great experience overall and Boston was the perfect location for it." - Mr. Oliver Rummeyer, Lead Developer, Deutscher Sparkassenverlag GmbH, Germany


"The MAC in Cambridge was a very useful event. The direct contact with the IBM-colleagues and the information they offered are very helpful for current and future decisions. The organization of the event was excellent and I'm looking forward to the next opportunity to join an interesting MAC." - Mr. Axel Streich, Programm Manager, VR Kreditwerk Hamburg- Schwäbisch Hall AG, Germany
