User Webinar

The Netformx User Webinar is a free monthly web-based conference open to existing as well as prospective customers. These one-hour sessions begin at 11 AM Pacific time on the second Thursday of each month from February through November. The goal of the User Webinar is to share information that will help existing users maximize the benefits of using Netformx solutions and demonstrate to prospective users the ease of use and productivity gains that may be achieved with Netformx solutions.

Typically User Webinars open with a brief presentation by one of our customers or partners. The remainder of the Webinar typically includes a Netformx presentation or live demonstration of a recently released solution or a “how to” segment on making the most of a popular feature of DesignXpert™ or one of the DesignXpert Advisor modules.
