The presentation provided a very good update and comparison of application roles and responsibilities. Obviously this is a great starting point for identifying which apps to review or update on with a sense of priority.
This presentation is also a great refresh for all of us deep into our project work, etc., and in organizations that are using different versions, different processes and priorities, and for other reasons we do not get the hands on while performing daily or at least routinely. Thanks
