We just wrapped up another successful PriceAdvantage User Conference, where once again we had lots of face time with so many of our customers. The conference had a great turnout again this year, which is a testimony to how much our customers enjoy the time interacting with other like-minded retail fuel pricing folks at this event. The attendees loved the opportunity to brush up on their product knowledge, discuss the product roadmap, and provide direct feedback on where the software should go. They also enjoyed their 1:1 time with the PriceAdvantage team.
This is our sixth User Conference, and the attendees this year all told us they will be back again next year.
We’re already looking forward to our 2023 User Conference!
