Happy New Year TBC'ers!

Hope you all had a festive holiday season. The TBC Team has been conducting a competitive analysis project in assessing our product against similar market solutions over the last several months.

As we conclude this project, we would like to request additional input, feedback and expertise from end-users like yourselves in assessing the qualitative aspects of TBC.

Besides TBC, are you familiar with either of the following?
1) Bentley Microstation
2) Leica Infinity
3) Topcon Magnet
4) Autodesk Civil 3D
5) Carlson Survey

If yes, we would like to invite you towards participating in a short 15-minute survey. We value your time and look forward to being in communication while collaborating towards TBC improvements. Projects like these allow us to better align future product development roadmaps with the expectations of our customers and users like yourself. Lastly I would like to invite you in forwarding the survey link to any other TBC stakeholder within your network who you feel may add critical insight.
