Austin, TX, Sept. 30, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Accruent, the leading provider of solutions to manage the built environment, today announced that it will virtually host its annual Insights 2020 user conference over the course of two weeks in October. The event will be tailored to Accruent’s healthcare and manufacturing customers on October 6-7, followed by customers in higher education, retail, corporate real estate, and the public sector on October 13-14. Both weeks will include market updates, product deep-dives and updates, in-depth learning, and valuable networking opportunities that will help attendees amplify their organizational impact and make better use of their existing tools.
According to research analyst firm Verdantix, companies are responding to COVID-19 by dramatically reducing their workplace operating density to 20% to 50% of normal capacity. This dramatic shift has moved facilities management into the spotlight, dominating the conversation across industries as leaders continue to prioritize the health and safety of their employees and customers. It has become mission-critical for organizations to ensure their teams have the tools and skills in place to maintain safe, productive environments, which is why it is so important for thought leaders to connect and discuss facilities best practices at events like Accruent’s annual user conference.
This year’s conference will offer attendees access to industry insights and specialized training geared toward using Accruent products to respond to the effects of COVID-19, in addition to skill building opportunities for every-day use. Attendees will hear how their peers are navigating the current COVID-19 landscape and how Accruent software has helped facilitate their responses. This will further empower attendees to amplify their skills for greater business impact.
“We’ve been listening to our customers and observing how their use of Accruent software has evolved in these unprecedented times,” explains Melissa Hammerle, Commercial President at Accruent. “We look forward to providing a forum for everyone in our community to share what they have learned as well as gain insights they can use as they continue to adapt.”
The event will offer attendees free and on-demand access to:
- Executive Updates: Accruent’s executive leadership will share their thoughts on recent market trends as well as the strategic vision for the company.
- In-Depth Product Training: Geared toward both introductory and power users, sessions will offer guidance on using new and powerful features across Accruent products.
