Welcome to the Pittsburgh Business Objects Users Group Webpage.  Our group consists of both technical and end users from various companies in the Pittsburgh Area.  We meet 3 times a year to share our experiences, gather information about new and existing products and keep current with What's New at Business Objects.  We hold our meetings at various host companies throughout the Pittsburgh Area.  We try to rotate the location of our meetings in different parts of Pittsburgh to make them more accessible for everyone.  Membership is Free.  If you would like to be included on our mailing list or you are interested in joining our group, please send us an email.
