I think I’m safe in saying that CiviDay pretty much kicked of in Melbourne Australia (hopefully we just beat Sydney) and we had a small crowd, but mainly composed of new users which was great.

Our meet up was held in the offices of The Monthly, who are large CiviCRM users and in a commercial capacity, using to handle magazine subscriptions. The previous day we had just launched a new publication and have been processing masses of transactions an hour through CiviCRM hosted on pantheon, so a nice practical case study to show that CiviCRM can handle scale and high traffic.

We talked through Kurund’s CiviDay presentation, discussing features in 4.4 and future directions of 4.5/5, showed people the extensions directory and offered some general advice for those with questions.

Quick and to the point, but great to see some new faces from a wide variety of organisations in Melbourne.
