PlanetPTC UX Lab – Registration begins today, May 15!
Welcome to the 2012 PlanetPTC Live User Experience (UX) Lab! A highlight of the conference, the UX Lab provides an exciting and invigorating venue for customers to contribute feedback and ideas that directly influence the design and direction of PTC products.
It’s all about you. Based on your role, the tasks you manage at work and your products of interest, you’ll be able to select from a variety of hands-on, interactive sessions. Customer feedback is essential, valuable and provides unique insights into how we can improve your experience with our software.
Don’t miss this great opportunity to contribute your thoughts on the next generation of PTC products. We have over 20 individual product evaluations planned – including sessions for Arbortext, Creo, Windchill, PTC Technical Support and more. Sessions take approximately one hour. Come have fun with us in the 2012 UX Lab and be rewarded for your efforts with the coolest t-shirt at the conference.
How do I sign up for a UX Lab session?
We ask that you review the list of sessions below, and then based on your customer profile, let us know which evaluation(s) you are interested in. Please email Lauren Anderson or Kim Moroni and we will help coordinate schedules and help you get registered. We look forward to working with you!
