Hi to all,
First, we, at X-rite, do understand the customer frustrations with some of our products and the lead times for answers. We have been adding to the staff and have new product managers to better focus on the weak points or points of technical frustration with our products. We have been planning to form an i1 users group within the Linked In ecosystem. I have no problem with "emotional banter", it's part of the playing field and the fact is, if we did a better job, there would be less of it. I recently became manager of the ICC group on Linked In and I am trying to get a handle on group management on Linked In. It is difficult to keep the "wacko get rich quick" ads off of the discussions.
I've been working with the product market managers to get a better idea of the pitfalls and strengths of such a group focused on i1Pro and i1Profiler. One big fear, which is justified, is that a "members-only" forum like this, sponsored by X-rite, might be confused with an official application support function. On the other hand, if members of the community can help one another, then it will be beneficial for all. I will post back to this group, when we will be forming that private forum on Linked In. I would welcome any comments from you about this idea. Rather than take valuable bandwidth on this forum, please contact me directly at tlianza AT xrite DOT com.
Thanks,
TL

Doing so, and having an advanced understanding of these and other profiling specifics helps distinguish myself and my services as a notch above the rest. It's part of becoming a professional. I don't see how having a different unit of measurement would have changed my process or understanding. You have to see the real world test results.
