GTUG Overview
The Global Tivoli User Group (GTUG) Council is comprised of leaders appointed from numerous Tivoli User Groups to represent their groups. Currently, the council is representative of 22 user groups (3 Asia Pacific, 7 Americas, 12 Europe/Middle East/Africa). Our focus has expanded to include members from Maximo, Storage and Security. The council meets on a monthly conference call to work through requirements and provide feedback to Tivoli. In addition, we meet face to face once a year in a two-day meeting to network and provide extensive feedback into Tivoli on various aspects.
What is our mission?
The mission is to extend the effectiveness of Tivoli user groups by providing operational feedback for the improvement of Tivoli's products and services by working proactively with Tivoli on planning, strategy and development prioritization, as well as expanding Tivoli user group networking capabilities globally.
What is our scope?
- Condense local user groups' feedback into the underlying fundamental issue(s) regarding Tivoli products or non-Tivoli products that Tivoli integrates with, product certification, support, documentation, training, professional services, sales and marketing. This information will be pro-actively used to influence Tivoli to improve their products and services, through the Tivoli Board of Advisors and/or other avenues that may be available.
- Act as a pre-funding/pre-development/pre-deployment operational sounding board for plans Tivoli has for products, services, sales, etc., and provide input into Tivoli's overall strategy.
- Extend the networking capabilities of the local users groups to share information and provide a common communication point from Tivoli to its customers.

GTUG Face to Face Meeting Summary 2010:
February 24th through the 26th we held to annual Global Tivoli User Group Face to Face meeting at the end of the PULSE conference in Las Vegas. I am happy to say that this meeting was not only well attended by the GTUG representatives, but by the IBM representatives as well. In my opinion this was a very productive meeting. We had the opportunity to dig deeper into many of the offerings that Tivoli is coming out with as well as a look into the direction that IBM/Tivoli is going. As always we had lively interaction between the GTUG and IBM participants which helps both IBM and us to determine some product enhancements and direction. Thanks to everyone who participated and made this such a success. A detailed report of our meeting can be found here.
Requirements, we are currently working through our requirements process and will provide an update in the July/Aug timeframe.
