Computer Systems Australia (CSA) have been appointed as one of the few technology partners in Australia to present Microsoft’s Business Productivity Customer Immersion Experience (CIE).
Hands-on and Real World
Rather than a demonstration or a presentation, CIE is a hands-on experience based on real world business scenarios. Up to 8 senior business executives and decision makers walk through an interactive and informative session. You will be able to test-drive Microsoft’s fully integrated business productivity platform that includes Unified Communications, Collaboration, Content Management, Business Intelligence and Enterprise Search.

A Day in the Life
The CIE is a "day in the life" of a typical company. Each participant will be given an interactive role utilising detailed data including intranet sites, email threads, contact names, databases and real customer data – in fact, over 3 million records. In a hands-on environment you will experience how various Microsoft productivity technologies such as Windows, Office, Project and Visio, SharePoint, Exchange, Lync, Dynamics CRM, Systems Centre, Desktop/Application Virtualization and Mobile all work together.
Addressing your business issues
Instead of individual product demonstrations, the CIE focuses on how CSA, in conjunction with Microsoft products, can help solve your real world business issues.
It is the perfect opportunity for everyone to experience and discuss how particular solutions could benefit your organisation’s future productivity.
Sessions are available at our Newcastle, Sydney and Melbourne offices, or on-site.
