What sessions do you hope to catch at Convergence 2013 in New Orleans?

I was browsing through the listing of sessions available in New Orleans for Convergence 2013 and am very excited to attend a number of them.  Check out this link for details on all of the great sessions that will be available:

Here is a breakdown of the sessions I hope to attend this year:

• Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Overview: 

Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 has over 150 features in this release.  This session is going to give an overview of the top features in Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013.  What a great way to capture all of the best that GP 2013 has to offer!

• Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Web Client Overview: 

With Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013, a new option for accessing the system is available through the web using Web Services. This session is going to provide an overview of the web client functionality and information on implementing it. I am looking forward to learning more about this new feature and how it can be useful in organizations.

• Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Web Client For Smaller Companies: 

This session is going to focus on deploying and maintaining a web client geared towards smaller companies who do not have a large IT department. This sounds like a great session to see what is possible with the web client and what is realistic for your company.

• 50 Tips in 50 Minutes for Microsoft Dynamics GP: The Next Generation: 

Who couldn't use new and helpful tips for the latest Microsoft Dynamics GP release?  This session is going to cover existing functionality, as well as what's new in Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013. This is a session I look forward to each Convergence!

• NEW! Performance & Scalability in Microsoft Dynamics GP: 

Who wouldn't want their system to run faster and perform better?  This session is going to give us tips on ensuring our systems are running at peak performance.

• Getting Better Reporting with Business Analyzer for Microsoft Dynamics GP: 

Within Microsoft Dynamics GP, Business Analyzer is a very important reporting tool that allows users to view reports to best fit their specific reporting needs. This would be a great session to learn more about Business Analyzer and how to deploy and implement at your office. .

• The Microsoft Dynamics GP Support Debugging Tool: 

As the online description for this session says, “The Support Debugging Tool is cool. Period!”  This is a super cool tool that has a lot to offer.  I look forward to learning more about the tool, as well as information about the new features released that will bring more value.

• Introduction to Microsoft SQL Reporting Services for Microsoft Dynamics GP: 

This is an introduction to Microsoft SQL Reporting Services and will give information on how it can be used to get better reporting from Microsoft Dynamics GP.  And, since Microsoft SQL Reporting Services works with Rockton’s Dynamics Report Manager tool, I look forward to learning more about it.
