Steve\u2019s name was drawn at random from hundreds of entry forms.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and he learned a few cool things about the new Voyager 7S, too. Trade Street will upgrade to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yardi.com\/blog\/technology\/yardi-voyager-7s\/6976.html\">new Voyager version<\/a> in November. In addition to its device and browser agnosticism, two things that piqued Steve\u2019s interest in 7S are its search capabilities \u2013 it features global and predictive search \u2013 and overall look.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe search functions are great. As the help desk person, I often get the phone call: \u2018Where can I find this report?\u2019 And now, users can type a key word in there and find it themselves,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>A veteran of five YASC events, his favorite parts of the conference include networking and the opportunity to work through trouble spots in the lab.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve learned a lot, just being in the lab,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n<p>Schutz is based in Florida. He\u2019s worked in residential, commercial, affordable and military property management for the last 12 years.<\/p>\n<p>That new baseball jersey, though, wasn\u2019t for a Chicago Cubs player \u2013 he probably already has a few of those in his collection of 150 jerseys at home.<\/p>\n<p>He picked up an Asheville Tourists minor league jersey while vacationing in North Carolina over the summer to add to his closet. But $350 of the gift card still remains for fun purchases to come.<\/p>\n<p>While he appreciated the prize, Steve said he still would have attended YASC either way. He\u2019ll come to both of the 2014 YASC conferences, he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou get exposed to a lot of things you wouldn\u2019t normally get exposed to, you can learn a little bit more about products and features you didn\u2019t know about, and reinforce what you already know to make it better,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s our idea of a home run.
