This November we are excited to announce the launch of the new Total Synergy Community! The team has also worked hard to gift a few early presents for Christmas including phase names in dependencies and a new dashboard panel. We’ve worked hard to make project budgets a bit easier and everyday tasks smoother.
Read about all the changes below.
NEW
Total Synergy Community

An additional way for you to engage with the product, best practice tips, your industry and the wider AEC community.
