Couldn’t make it? Here’s an inside look at what you missed. 

Picture this: 728,000 square feet buzzing with over 81,000 industry professionals. The show was a hub of activity. Our team had the pleasure of engaging with hundreds of attendees throughout the week – many of whom were our very own clients – showcasing several of ConstructionOnline’s newest features, hearing how much our software has helped different types of builders grow their businesses, and having lots of fun in the process.

We Met Some of the Clients Who Keep Us Going

One of the best parts of IBS is getting to meet and reconnect with current ConstructionOnline clients who use our software to manage better projects every day. 

Some just wanted to say hi, some wanted to ask our product specialists a few questions about the platform, some shared their feature requests with us, and some were even generous enough to record testimonials telling us just how much our platform has helped them win more jobs, manage teams more efficiently, and make more money.

IBS Wasn’t All Work & No Play!

As the saying goes, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” In between our days at the convention center, we found time for fun, sightseeing, and great food.

We visited the Venetian for some dinner and shopping; we took a walk on Fremont Street in Downtown Las Vegas which was full of interesting sights to see and activities to do; we did some team bonding by playing a few games of darts at Flight Club; and a few of our team members even went to a hockey game to watch an action-packed match between the Vegas Golden Knights and the Chicago Blackhawks.

But Wait - There's Something Else You Should Know...

Amidst the hundreds of builders who chatted with us, there were several FAQs about our company, UDA Technologies; our software, ConstructionOnline; our competitors; and more.

If some of you had these questions, we know there are more of you out there who probably want to know this information, too.

So, next week's post-IBS wrap-up article will include all of the FAQs we heard from all of you, including things like why we're better than our competitors, which of our pricing plans is best for your needs, why we no longer support ConstructionSuite and why you should upgrade to ConstructionOnline ASAP, and more! We'll also share insightful information that our team learned from talking with builders like you.
