Colorado User Groups



Softpro Books is proud to sponsor many of the Denver/Boulder user groups by donating gift certificates to be given away at monthly meetings. If you have a user group of substantial size that we are not already sponsoring, please contact us at dtc@softprowest.com and insert the phrase “User Groups Outreach” in the subject line.  Please mention the size of your group, how long you have been around, and the frequency of your meetings.
