The Discussion Gateway – What is your story?
The annual CGI Forum is just one way your Steering Committee and CGI contribute to social networking for the AMS Advantage community. However, when the Forum is over, and we all wave goodbye, the Discussion Gateway is there to continue the conversation throughout the year. It is where colleagues, friends, experts and organizations congregate to share information, talk about new functionality and learn how other organizations are using the software.
Organized by category, users can read discussion threads, start their own threads or participate in an existing thread. Users can also "watch" discussions – a feature that delivers emails to your inbox when a discussion you are interested in has new postings from other users.

In October's edition of Insights, Jon Ryder, a programmer analyst for the State of Maine, shared his experience with us when AMS infoAdvantage extracts started running longer than expected. Through the Discussion Gateway, he connected with Theron Fox at Los Angeles County, CA. Together they reviewed the different improvements the County developed when they experienced a similar problem. By applying a couple of the same improvements, extracts that were running 15 – 20 minutes, came down to one or two minutes. That means users are not sitting around waiting.
