Learning from Other Software Users

Some of the best ideas about how to use a product come from other users. CGTech, the developers of Vericut software for simulating CNC machining, convenes its Vericut Users Exchange (VUE) events regularly—partly to give its customers a forum to exchange tips and tricks for using the software. Attendees also learn about new developments and enhancements in the product. The events are free and are held in locations around the country. In fact, users have requested more of these events, so the company has added to the schedule of VUE dates and locations for this year.
