[Casper] Do We Need The JumpStart

[mcorippo]

Well.....

We did Casper without training for almost a year before we were able to work out a jam(f)-packed, speed-reading, one day special version of the Jump Start. A couple of us were in the Twin Cities area for a
remote project and Mr. Wudi came to us with a portable lab.  It was great.  In some ways, I liked *not* going to training first.  We were able to breeze over the basics and spend more time on more advanced
questions and specific problems that we would have not even thought early in our Casper roll out.

I say jump in and RTFM for now.  Not optimal, but can go a long way by yourself.  Still fight for some training $$, as even a year later, it is well worth the cost. Besides, your staff time is valuable, and
going the self-taught route is always slower.  Time is money.

Can I piggy back a question here?

I am thankful for this list, but I would love to see a Casper forum.  If Jamf is too busy adding great new features and making Casper 6 perfect, how would you folks feel about a freebie Casper forum?  If
someone builds it, will you come?

Thanks,
