The New NI Days Format

[B.Settles]

Dear NI,

We appreciate your effort to bring some of the experience of NI Week to those less fortunate consumers who could not attend the grand event in Austin, TX. But I believe a key component was overlooked in the creation of this new format: COST!

While the old format may have been a logistical nightmare for NI, it was great for your consumers because it was relatively free. There were virtually no travel cost, and it only cost one day of work. With the new format, we now have to pay for travel, lodging, and sacrifice at least two days of work, because we're sorry, but NI Days isn't worth two plane rides in one day in order to only miss one day of work. For all that, we could've just went to NI Week, that's if the company is willing to pay for it in this day and age of constant cost cutting.

So for next year, please reconsider going back to the old format.

I'd like to think this is worth it.  #MoreThanASymposim
