Software revolutionizes how AEC firms implement Autodesk technology


DUBUQUE, IOWA — Eagle Point Software Corporation announced the next generation of its Pinnacle Series solution. This revolutionary technology presents multiple implementation, training, and support resources in a single, concise user interface. By replacing the disparate systems that organizations currently use to teach, implement, and support Autodesk technologies, people can efficiently use software the way it was intended and effectively get their work done.

Engineering and architectural firms understand the challenges and changes occurring within the AEC industry. With advances in 3D modeling, CAD, and building information modeling (BIM) solutions like AutoCAD Civil 3D and Autodesk Revit Architecture, organizations not only need to adopt these advanced technologies but also must overcome the hurdles to implementing and training employees. "Training alone is no longer sufficient to ensure a successful implementation. To get employees to actually use software productively requires a different approach and learning methodology than what's traditionally been done. That's where Pinnacle Series fits in," explained Brad Heil, vice president of products and services at Eagle Point Software.

Pinnacle Series helps firms get the most out of their Autodesk software investments and enables them to spend less money on training and decrease lost billable time. Workflows, cheat sheets, videos, online training, chat, and technical support resources are included to:

  • initially implement new systems or upgrade to current releases,
  • standardize workflow procedures,
  • train people on how to do their work and use new software, and
  • have people help themselves when they get stuck.

Content is delivered through a concurrent user and perpetual license model, meaning organizations can buy just what need and never lose the purchased content.

Pinnacle Series is available for purchase now, with shipping of the product to begin in mid July 2011.
