Dear Reader,
If you install, update, manage or maintain the SAS deployment at your company, you're a SAS administrator. It’s a critical role (often one of many!) you play for SAS users at your organization, and your impact is undeniable. Still, it's not always easy keeping your users happy and your SAS environment running smoothly.
In last month’s newsletter I mentioned changes we were making to the SAS support site in response to suggestions you’ve made and to help you find information more quickly and get help more easily. If you’re an administrator, you’ll be happy to hear one of those changes is a new SAS Administrators page, where you can get everything from hot fixes, downloads and security bulletins to tips and tricks to help you better manage your SAS environment. You’ll also find links to resources like blog posts for SAS administrators and the SAS Administration and Deployment Community. We trust these resources will make your job a little easier and make you a better SAS administrator.
In fact, I’d encourage all SAS users to spend a little time on the support site. It really is the best place for you to expand your SAS knowledge, discover available SAS resources by product, connect with other users and get the help you need.
Helping you become a better user is the mission of this newsletter as well. So read on for some great tips, tricks and resources – and thanks again for being a SAS user.
