Zerto IT Resilience Platform, Rubrik Cloud Data Management, Microsoft Azure Backup, and IBM Spectrum Protect named champions in 2020 Emotional Footprint Awards.

TORONTO (PRWEB) APRIL 16, 2020
SoftwareReviews announces its 2020 Enterprise Backup and Availability Emotional Footprint Award winners, as determined by software users, who feel that four software vendors have provided them with exceptional customer experiences. According to users' answers to questions focused on satisfaction, which have been crafted by seasoned IT industry analysts at Info-Tech Research Group, the vendor champions are:

Zerto IT Resilience Platform

Rubrik Cloud Data Management

Microsoft Azure Backup

IBM Spectrum Protect

The Emotional Footprint Awards are showcased in a report of software reviews focused on vendor relationships with software users from the customer's point of view.
Zerto IT Resilience Platform led the championship group with an Emotional Footprint score of +96 with a value index of 86%. Zerto earned first-place status for saving users time and transparency, with a perfect score of +100 for each. Rubrik Cloud Data Management users also gave the vendor an Emotional Footprint score of +96 with a value index of 85%. Rubrik took the number-one spot in many areas, including demonstrating fairness and friendly negotiation – which earned a perfect score of 100%. Microsoft Azure Backup, with a Net Emotional Footprint Score of +86, did consistently well, earning second place for security. IBM Spectrum Protect also did well across the scorecard, earning a Net Emotional Footprint score of +87, and taking second place for appreciating incumbent status and continually improving.
The bottom line: enterprise backup and availability software users above all value being able to rely on their vendors, while they were most disappointed in vendors' tendency to over-promise.
"Trusting that your vendor is providing the right solution and pricing it competitively is invaluable," said Darryl Levesque, principal research advisor, infrastructure, at Info-Tech Research Group. "When your vendor sounds too good to be true, it probably is, and you should approach with caution. Trusting that the relationship your backup vendor is creating is of mutual benefit is not only critical for the vendor, but of paramount importance to you. Today, data is probably one of your most precious assets and you need to trust that your vendor sees that as well."
Levesque continued, "With the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic impacting the world, it is strategic to look at solutions that will allow for a lights-out approach. Not having to enter a data center to change tapes or stand up new servers is of strong importance. Social distancing and emergency orders on business mean that your staff will be challenged if you maintain a physical infrastructure presence that requires care and feeding. Speak to your vendor to see what solutions they have that you can take advantage of to reduce the risk and exposure of your staff during these challenging times. Also understand that your vendors will be experiencing the same challenges you are. You may need to look into how they will best support you and your business while they address the COVID-19 restrictions we are all under."
About the Emotional Footprint Diamond and Emotional Footprint Awards
The Emotional Footprint Diamond illustrates the customer experience with software vendors, showing a complex relationship spanning procurement, implementation, service and support. The Net Emotional Footprint of a vendor is a result of aggregated emotional response ratings in the areas of service, negotiation, product impact, conflict resolution, and strategy and innovation, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and its product from the software users' point of view. The data published in the Emotional Footprint Diamond is collected from real end users through authentic software review surveys and meticulously verified for veracity. The survey uses standard net promoter scoring (positive percentage minus negative percentage) to arrive at the Net Emotional Footprint score. These skillfully crafted survey questions are informed by two decades of IT research and advisory.
Vendors with top user scores receive the Emotional Footprint Award. The Emotional Footprint Awards, an initiative proudly founded in 100% user-review data, is free of traditional components such as market presence and analyst opinion, which are opaque in nature and may be influenced by vendor pressure, financial or otherwise.
About SoftwareReviews
SoftwareReviews is a division of Info-Tech Research Group, a world-class IT research and analyst firm established in 1997. Backed by two decades of IT research and advisory experience, SoftwareReviews is a leading source of expertise and insight into the enterprise software landscape and client-vendor relationships.

Real estate franchisor HomeSmart International recently kicked off a series of the company's Business Builder webinars dedicated to training agents on holding successful virtual open houses, showings and tours for their clients. As much of the real estate industry makes the move toward doing a majority of its business remote and online due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the real estate franchisor, who already offered webinar-based training, stepped up to ensure both their own agents and the real estate community as a whole are prepared to succeed in this new frontier of virtual real estate.

His training courses are well-known and widely attended, with his Marketing Essentials training becoming a CE class. Sumney is passionate about training agents to succeed, especially when it comes to navigating unknown territory such as virtual open houses.

"These agents are so eager to adapt and learn how to keep their businesses thriving, especially during tough circumstances. So, to see so many of them turning out for these training opportunities is truly exciting and gives me great optimism for our industry moving forward."

With LizardFS, no stop operation is needed, providing a non-interruptible workflow.
DIAWAY helps LizardFS customers optimize their infrastructure CapEx and OpEx by advising them on selecting the best hardware for the task and supplying it as a complete solution. Thus, significantly decreasing overall data storage costs and removing the complexity of designing, building, supplying, and supporting the storage infrastructure.

"A justifiable portion of this demand may leverage LizardFS capabilities, and we are proud to integrate our signature storage hardware and design in LizardFS software-defined storage infrastructure.

Talkpush, a talent acquisition recruitment solutions platform that provides digital recruitment capabilities for high volume employers, has raised capital from venture capital studio Latin Leap. The investment and support provided by Latin Leap would help drive further international expansion in Latin America, whose emerging markets increasingly rely on virtual recruitment practices.
With its employment of a wide range of technologies including artificial intelligence (AI), big data and analytics, cloud computing, and social media, Talkpush brings advancements to previously tedious processes such as talent acquisition, candidate pipeline management, recruitment analytics and candidate experience. When employed effectively, its technology delivers copious benefits ranging from optimised talent acquisition and responsiveness to the business requirements. As companies deal with the effects of COVID-19, global demand for digital recruitment has dramatically increased.
In the Latin American market, TA Tech is rapidly gaining a foothold as companies plan to increase automation by up to 45% in areas such as recruitment. This follows a period of sustained growth in HR Tech investment in the region from 2015 to 2018, with 54% of companies planning to further boost investment in 2020.
"With the strong outlook for digitalization in the HR sector in Latin America, I believe that the industry will benefit from Talkpush's solutions bringing recruiters closer to candidates via digital tools and automation" said Stefan Krautwald, General Partner of Latin Leap. "Talkpush, with its robust tech stack and impressive list of international clients fits perfectly into our investment thesis of soft-landing tech-enabled businesses in Colombia & Latin America. We are proud to accompany its growth path in the region."
Latin Leap, a newly formed Venture Capital Studio focusing on opening up opportunities in Latin America for Asian tech-scale ups aims to become a key pillar supporting the globalization of the region's tech sector.
Using proprietary technology, Talkpush empowers recruiting teams for high volume employers to spend their time focusing on the most qualified candidates, while offering every single candidate a top-notch experience at scale.
Talkpush serves the leading employers in the retail, BPO, and staffing sectors such as Walmart, Teleperformance, and Adecco.
"We are excited to have Latin Leap join us as an investor and partner to grow our presence in Latin America. The focus on digital recruitment has accelerated in the age of social distancing, and employers around the world are looking for digital solutions that will help them accelerate recruitment as economic activity resumes." said Max Armbruster, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Talkpush.
Last year, Talkpush's technology was used to automate more than 10 million conversations with candidates, more than any recruitment platform in the world, with the bulk of the conversations happening on messaging platforms such as Facebook Messenger and WhatsApp. With customers in more than 10 countries including Costa Rica, Mexico, Colombia, and Argentina, the new funding and strategic support from Latin Leap will allow Talkpush to further capitalize on its global growth momentum and help drive further international expansion in Latin America over the next few months.
Talkpush is the new way employers and candidates connect all over the world. We believe hiring is about starting conversations; and are on a mission to level up the recruitment experience. The way people communicate is ever-changing and talent acquisition needs to change with it. We empower candidates by getting their voices heard; and we delight recruiters with software that lets them talk directly with the right talent.

Bartley O'Dwyer to Lead Private Equity Practice for Consero

AUSTIN, TEXAS (PRWEB) APRIL 16, 2020
Business Development executive, Bartley O'Dwyer, joins Consero Global LLC, a pioneer in Finance as a Service, as Managing Director of Private Equity, beginning April 1, 2020.
A $50M investment from BV Investment Partners in 2018 provided an opportunity to grow Consero's customer base exponentially, making Consero the go-to choice for PE sponsors and their portfolio companies who require financial excellence, sophistication, technological innovation, and operational efficiency within their finance and accounting function.
Private Equity sponsors and their portfolio companies face the unique challenge of needing accurate financials at their fingertips as part of their diligence process for add-on acquisitions, carve outs, and across their portfolio operations function. In partnership with Consero, PE backed companies gain access to the cutting-edge technology and sophisticated accounting and finance expertise typically employed only by much larger companies.
Mr. O'Dwyer joins Consero during the COVID-19 crisis, when companies have an even more acute need for Consero's cloud-based and remote finance and accounting platform.
"Consolidating financial information and closing the books is challenging for middle-market, high-growth companies under normal circumstances," said Natalie Townsend, Vice President of Sales. "It is even more difficult while employees are working remotely, and therefore may have even less access to information than during the course of normal operations. Consero has already solved this problem with a cloud-based tech stack, digital workflows and remote finance & accounting expertise."
Mr. O'Dwyer will lead the Private Equity Practice for Consero, concentrating on Private Equity, growth equity, venture capital, and family offices throughout the United States. He will lead a team based in New York and be responsible for identifying and recruiting talent throughout the United States. He most recently served as Managing Director and Head of Private Equity Sales and Business Development for Gerson Lehrman Group (GLG). His tenure at GLG spanned over 15 years in various senior management roles. Prior to that, he was with J.P. Morgan Chase. He holds a BA from Providence College, and an MA from The London School of Economics.
"We are very fortunate to have someone of Bartley's experience and expertise in this space," added Bill Klein, President. "He has proven that he is able to grow a function and service Private Equity clients to our exacting standards."
"I am excited to join such an innovative company with a fantastic culture," said Mr. O'Dwyer. "Consero already has a significant presence in the Private Equity market. I look forward to helping grow the existing PE Practice, which already counts portfolio companies of blue chip investors and introducing Consero's disruptive Finance as a Service model and new artificial intelligence technologies to similar like-minded investors."
Consero combines innovative and integrated software, including the SIMPL financial management console and Simon voice-activated AI technology with traditional CFO, controller and bookkeeping services. All of this comes without the time, cost and effort of creating and managing a full in-house finance and accounting department. With Consero's services, companies of all sizes can afford Fortune 500 level financial tools.
About Consero Global:
Founded in 2006 by Scott Tynes, Bill Klein and Kiran Jagannath, Consero Global disrupts the way businesses build and maintain their finance & accounting function. Through a cloud-based platform, Consero delivers the financial clarity and efficiency needed to drive a business forward. Strategic CFOs are adopting Consero's cutting-edge Finance as a Service model to free up time and understand how the business is performing. Serving more than 150 clients, Consero provides the control and insight needed to steer businesses toward success. Contact Consero for more information about gaining greater control of your financial operations. http://www.conseroglobal.com

OpenLegacy is part of an 80-member-strong global network that aims to provide the world with standards for various banking and finance technologies and architectures

PRINCETON, N.J. (PRWEB) APRIL 16, 2020
OpenLegacy, the pioneer in digital-driven integration for legacy and core systems, is now a member of the Banking Industry Architecture Network (BIAN), a collaborative, not-for-profit ecosystem of leading banks, technology providers, consultants, and academics worldwide.
OpenLegacy is joining an 80-member-strong global network that aims to provide the world with standards for various banking and finance technologies and architectures. BIAN's goals are to standardize banking APIs, lower global banking IT and operational costs, mitigate the risks associated with innovation, and create best-practice architecture.
OpenLegacy technology helps banks quickly address legacy banking system challenges and develop digital services at a fraction of the normal time and expense. OpenLegacy technology enables the automatic creation of open APIs from core legacy systems to support fintech banking projects, reducing project backlogs and speeding implementation of digital transformation initiatives.
"It is our great pleasure to welcome OpenLegacy to our growing and diverse global network of banks, software vendors, and service providers," said Hans Tesselaar, Executive Director of BIAN. "OpenLegacy brings its strengths in automating the entire API lifecycle, as well as its deep experience in helping many financial institutions acclimate to the digital age. We look forward to the collaboration between OpenLegacy and BIAN member-peers to define standards for banking services."
"The banking and finance industry is in many ways spear-heading digital transformation around the globe, so the time is right for more formal standards to be defined and adopted," said Hans Otharsson, Customer Success Officer of OpenLegacy. "Having worked with almost 50% of the global 50 banks enables us to share what we have learned with our BIAN peers and collaborate with the best in the business to further establish the types of standards that already exist for other types of technology."
About BIAN
Established in 2008, the Banking Industry Architecture Network (BIAN) is an independent, member-owned, not-for-profit association designed to build and promote a common architectural framework for banking interoperability issues. BIAN's goal is to define an Enterprise-, Functional- and Technical Architecture supported by semantic API definitions for the banking industry. The community of over 80 members focuses on creating a standard semantic banking services landscape, while ensuring consistent service definitions, levels of detail, and boundaries. This will help banks to achieve a reduction of integration costs and take advantage of microservices-based architecture.
Financial institutions, software vendors, and system integrators, along with technology and academic partners, are invited to join the association and play a collaborative role with other industry leaders in defining, building and implementing next-generation banking platforms. http://www.bian.org
About OpenLegacy
OpenLegacy's Digital-Driven Integration enables organizations with legacy systems to release new digital services faster and more efficiently than ever before. It connects directly to even the most complex legacy systems, bypassing the need for extra layers of technology. It then automatically generates APIs in minutes, rapidly integrating those assets into new and exciting innovations. Finally, it deploys them as standard microservices or serverless functions, giving organizations speed and flexibility while drastically cutting costs and resources. With OpenLegacy, industry-leading companies release new apps, features, and updates in days instead of months, enabling them to truly become digital to the core. http://www.openlegacy.com

Learning Ally is providing schools nationwide with a distance learning platform to keep students with reading deficits reading and succeeding. The program includes the Learning Ally Audiobook Solution, a Distance Learning Resource Site for educators and parents, and the Square Panda School to Home Engagement Program for emerging readers.

PRINCETON, N.J. (PRWEB) APRIL 16, 2020
Learning Ally, a not-for-profit and leading education solutions organization serving at-risk learners, is responding to the COVID-19 crisis with a relief program to schools across the country.
The program includes the Learning Ally Audiobook Solution that helps students with reading deficits, a Distance Learning Resource Site for both educators and parents, and the Square Panda School to Home Engagement Program for emerging readers. The program offers complimentary access to these proven literacy development solutions effective immediately through August 1st, helping to keep students reading and providing a platform that educators nationwide can consider as a component for ensuring distance learning literacy progress, continuity, and equity in the future.
Learning Ally aims to get and keep students reading, engaged, and learning from home as long as school closures continue and through the summer and beyond. Whether they are at-risk PreK-1st graders or students already diagnosed with reading-based learning differences like dyslexia, these students have tremendous educational challenges in traditional school settings and conditions. Now, they are even more at risk of "slipping through the cracks." Statistics show that for these students, falling behind can have dire consequences. Distance learning puts additional burdens on these students and on the educators and parents that support them.
Learning Ally's COVID-19 Relief Program aims to assist an additional 500,000 students and 30,000 educators with a suite of solutions and resources that support distance learning:

The Learning Ally Audiobook Solution is the largest library of human-read audiobooks designed for students with reading deficits. Our library includes popular fiction, classics and textbooks - all the books students want and need to read for school and aligned to school curriculum, K-12. The solution's human-voice to highlighted text enables students to read to their cognitive ability, read independently and become engaged learners.

The Distance Learning Resource Site contains a collection of literacy-based activities and professional learning opportunities, including webinars for educators and content in multiple formats for parents to assist their children while learning from home.

The Square Panda School to Home Engagement Program offers a multi-sensory literacy system for PreK-1 learners at home, designed to build critical foundational literacy skills with adaptive phonics instruction that guides students to work independently at home with very little parent supervision.

Learning Ally solutions are designed for "anywhere access" on personal devices, and are well suited to serve as a distance learning solution, especially under these difficult circumstances.
"Learning Ally solutions have always represented the critical difference between isolation and integration, between frustration and pride, and between struggle and success," said Andrew Friedman, Learning Ally CEO and President. "We have a key role to play while schools are closed, to ensure at-risk learners, educators and families are supported in their continued efforts around reading, learning and succeeding."
In the few weeks since Learning Ally made the announcement, there has been an enthusiastic response. Learning Ally staff are mobilized to help schools onboard and have already expanded services to nearly 100,000 students across the country.

L-com, an Infinite Electronics brand and a preferred manufacturer of wired and wireless connectivity products, announced today that it is now manufacturing RF cable assemblies using Times Microwave low-loss coaxial cable, and connectors to address a wide range of telecommunications, cellular and Wi-Fi applications.

IRVINE, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 16, 2020
L-com, an Infinite Electronics brand and a preferred manufacturer of wired and wireless connectivity products, announced today that it is now manufacturing RF cable assemblies using Times Microwave low-loss coaxial cable, and connectors to address a wide range of telecommunications, cellular and Wi-Fi applications.
L-com's new line of coax cable assemblies are popular alternatives to standard RG-style coax cables. Each assembly is built using Times Microwave low-loss LMR-style coaxial cable and 4.3-10,7/16 DIN, BNC, N-Type, F-Type, QMA,SMA and TNC connectors in various connector genders and combinations.Times Microwave LMR-style cable offers much lower loss than standard RG-type cables, which is critical in many applications including wireless network component connectivity. Bulk LMR cable options include LMR-100,195,200,240,400 and 600 along with direct burial options.
In addition to these new low-loss cable assemblies, L-com now stocks the individual Times Microwave brand non-solder , solder coax connectors and bulk cable used to make the cable assemblies, all with same-day shipping.

The course has traditionally required an in-person component

FARMER'S BRANCH, TEXAS (PRWEB) APRIL 17, 2020
Kalkomey Enterprises is offering an entirely online New York Hunter Education certification course through Hunter-ed from April 15 until June 30. For the first time, New York is waiving the in-person component required for students to earn their hunter education certificate.
New York state's traditional certification process includes online coursework followed by an in-person component. Due to the Covid-19 Pandemic, the state has canceled all in-person hunter education classes. To ensure that hunters do not miss the opportunity to participate in the May 1-May 31 turkey hunting season, the state of New York has made the certification process fully online for a limited time.
Kalkomey is a longtime partner of the State of New York, offering the online component of the traditional course. Our New York State Department of Environmental Conservation approved course offers live-action, high definition videos, comprehensive instruction, and is designed to work on any device. We are proud to provide the state of New York the ability to certify their students during this challenging time.
This limited-time, fully online certification consists of an online course, a virtual field day, and a final exam. Upon satisfactory completion of the final exam, students will earn their hunter education certificate and be able to purchase their hunting license through the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC).

Afficient Academy, an ed-tech startup in the Bay Area, California offers AI based math and English after-school learning programs at its physical learning centers. It also offers its programs online with remote support. During this complete lockdown period, Afficient Academy converted its physical learning center's regular classes to virtual classes to support its learning center students and ensure that students are able to learn and progress efficiently compensating for the learning loss during the school closure.

SAN JOSE, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 17, 2020
Afficient Academy Inc., an ed-tech startup in Silicon Valley, California, announced that all its learning centers have transitioned online to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic.
In mid-March, a 'shelter-in-place' order came into effect in Santa Clara County, where a majority of Afficient Academy's physical learning centers are located. "We promptly decided to offer online support to our learning center students during this complete lockdown period, converting our physical learning centers to virtual learning centers," said Dr. Jiayuan Fang, Afficient Academy's founder & CEO. Since then, corporate learning centers have been conducting virtual classes during their regular open hours using Zoom online conferencing tool. Instructors are available online during the class period to assist students and are also offering support through email and phone call. All Afficient Academy's franchise learning centers are also now offering online support. Since over half of Afficient Academy's students were remote learners supported by online teachers before COVID-19 shutdowns, there is no change for our remote students.
What makes Afficient Academy especially effective during this complete lockdown period?
1.    Curriculum aligned to US Common Core Curriculum:
Unlike many after-school learning programs, Afficient Academy's math & English programs are based on US Common Core standards, making them directly relevant to what students learn at school. During the shutdown period, student can use Afficient Academy's programs to keep up with school material and do well in their classes.
2.    Leveraging AI-Based Technology for Excellent Results:
Afficient Academy's AI-based program identifies skill gaps, ensures that all skills are mastered, and leads students to complete each grade with an A or A+. Rather than impeding students' learning, this closure period offers an opportunity for students to use Afficient Academy's programs to work on gaps in their skills.
3.    Remote Online Support by Instructors:
Parents are busier than ever during this stressful period, balancing working from home and managing the house. Afficient Academy's programs automatically give students weekly assignments at the beginning of each week that are individually tailored to students' unique learning situations. Students can conveniently review learned material and learn new content. After a student signs up for our online program, a designated online teacher is assigned to the student. The online teacher continuously monitors the student's progress and provides supervision and support.
4.    Regular Parent/Teacher/Student Communication:
Teachers communicate regularly with parents and fully inform them of students' progress. Parents also receive updates and have their questions answered via email, phone calls, online conference tools, WeChat, etc. Finally, Afficient Academy's iOS and Android App helps parents stay updated about their kid's progress real-time.
Students have already missed school for nearly a month, and they most likely will not be able to return for the remainder of this academic year. "At Afficient Academy, we are sincerely committed to ensuring that our students are on the path to achieving excellent results," says Dr. Fang, "We are glad to see that, during this stressful period, our students are able to stay on course, build a strong foundation, learn the necessary skills, and get prepared for the next academic year."
About Afficient Academy
Afficient Academy, Inc. was founded in 2014 in Silicon Valley, California. The patented "Afficient Methodology" significantly improves learning experiences and effectiveness.

Elevated Body Temperature using thermal cameras with AI and Analytics can assist with detection of people who may have elevated temperatures.

AUSTIN, TEXAS (PRWEB) APRIL 18, 2020
AUSTIN, TX. Eagle Eye Networks, the global leader in cloud video surveillance, announced today enhancements to the Eagle Eye Cloud Video Management System for full support of dual spectrum cameras used in elevated temperature detection. Interest in the use of dual spectrum cameras with integrated analytics for locating faces and measuring temperature has greatly increased amongst Eagle Eye Resellers as they look for tools to reduce the spread of Corona19. Eagle Eye Networks wants to do anything we can to assist with the current situation as well as service our Reseller partners.
The Eagle Eye Cloud Video platform has always supported a large range of thermal cameras, however, some newer thermal cameras, that claim higher accuracy, operate simultaneously in the visible spectrum and the thermal spectrum. They combine information from both spectrums to obtain temperature readings more accurately on the human face. These cameras output specific analytic information which has been integrated into the Eagle Eye Cloud VMS. It is now simple to operationalize the deployment of these advanced cameras, view them remotely, record them to the cloud, and receive notifications when temperature setpoints are exceeded.
"The quick support for this advanced thermal technology, hosted on the Eagle Eye Video API Platform, demonstrates the future proof nature of this service. Integration of new technologies, new cameras, and new capabilities are core to our open cloud platform. This is a great example of being able to rapidly deliver a solution, in response to an unexpected situation, with a technology that could prove to be very important. This is only possible with an open cloud platform," said Dean Drako, CEO of Eagle Eye Networks.
The Eagle Eye Cloud VMS is built on the Eagle Eye Video API Platform making integration of new technologies like this quick and straightforward. Eagle Eye has completed this integration, however, given the open nature of the Eagle Eye Video Platform anyone could have done it.
Eagle Eye has tested and integrated a series of thermal cameras at diverse price points, all with varying levels of accuracy. Some of the more accurate cameras utilize a blackbody calibration unit in the field of view to provide a temperature reference point.
Eagle Eye Cloud VMS support for Dual Spectrum Camera Elevated Temperature Measurement is available immediately. There is no additional cost for this support.
Eagle Eye Networks Cloud VMS is fully integrated with the access control systems, such as the cloud based Brivo Access, which can connect the temperature measurements to the names of people entering the building.
To view the integration please visit https://www.een.com/eagle-eye-cloud-vms-thermal-monitoring-cameras.
DISCLAIMER: Eagle Eye products are not designed to diagnose coronavirus, H1N1, SARS, or Influenza. Eagle Eye is not advertising cameras for use in the medical industry or for medical purposes. Thermal products can identify individuals in a population that display higher temperature. Thermal cameras do not find individuals experiencing coronavirus symptoms. There is no way to thermally detect an infected individual who has a normal body temperature. Only a licensed medical professional can determine if a warm individual has a medical condition. Eagle Eye products are not sold or marketed for any medical use.

Full DC Power Chain Visibility with Real-Time DC Power Utilization and Capacity Simplifies Management of Thousands of Remote Sites

SOMERSET, N.J. (PRWEB) APRIL 20, 2020
Sunbird Software, the global innovator in data center management software, today announced the general availability of its latest dcTrack Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) Operations software.
Full Support for Direct Current Power Chain Objects and Calculations
With Release 7.1, dcTrack now fully supports all direct current -48 Volt power chain objects and calculations. When the load of compute devices is connected to a direct current power chain, dcTrack will serve as an electrical engineer and accurately perform all the necessary calculations to ensure that the load can be handled by the power chain, reducing unexpected downtime. New supported objects include fuse alarm panels, battery distribution bays, power plant rectifiers, and battery strings. dcTrack performs battery runtime calculations based on detailed battery specifications and the present plant load. The user can further simulate future expected load and model the effect on battery runtime.
Release 7.1 solidifies Sunbird's position as the industry standard in second-generation DCIM with brand-new dashboard widgets that provide zero-configuration analytics and business intelligence.
"The new dashboard widgets continue our vision of transforming data into actionable insights," said Herman Chan, President, Sunbird Software. "Data center devices and soon Edge and 5G sites will generate a massive volume and variety of data, but many data center managers don't have the time or training to be able to collect that data, analyze it, gain insights from it, and ultimately derive value from it. We listened to our customers for what Key Performance Indicators matter most to them, and with Release 7.1, Sunbird provides those metrics out of the box in zero-configuration dashboard widgets that make it fast and easy for data center managers to access the most important information on their data center resources and capacities."
New Dashboard KPIs Simplify Data Center Business Intelligence & Analytics
dcTrack Release 7.1 introduces new dashboard widgets to deliver data center managers at-a-glance views of their most important data center KPIs. The Power Chain Breaker Utilization widget allows greater insight into the power chain, providing data center managers the ability to get the most out of their existing resources and avoid bottlenecks and costly downtime. The Historical Item Counts widget gives data center managers a simple view of the rate of growth of their asset counts over time and can be filtered by function. dcTrack now has over 100 dashboard widgets, each of which can be drilled down to provide thousands of detailed reports to help data center managers make the most-informed, data-driven decisions.
"With dcTrack, it has never been easier to see and analyze all the data being collected in our data center," said Tim Healy, Comcast. "The solution provides dashboard widgets for everything I need to monitor, right out of the box."
"As the size and complexity of infrastructure grows, the ability to analyze data not only from facilities but also from servers, networks, and applications will become essential and more operators will look to advanced DCIM software to help," said Daniel Bizo, Principal Analyst, 451 Research - a part of S&P Global Market Intelligence.
Additional new features in Release 7.1 include configurable breaker derating, international date format enhancements, move items in bulk using file import, color-coded cabinets and contents in 3D view by item field values, edit item attributes in bulk directly in the UI, easier impact analysis, and much more.

Friday, March 20 – A school district IT Director urgently calls Enabling Technologies. His old phone system will not allow faculty to communicate with the District schoolchildren. Union rules dictate that no teacher can use their cell phone to call a student.

Monday, March 23 – The School district signs Enabling's's Statement of Work to enable Microsoft Teams Calling plans for 3,000 faculty and staff.

Tuesday, March 24 – One of Enabling's senior Cloud Architects, is on the job.

Friday, March 27 – Enabling has Teams Calling Plans configured, tested, and running for 3,000 Faculty and Administrators!

The district's results have been positive, as they've made 144,000 phone calls for over 4700 hours of talk time, had over 17,000 online meetings in Teams, and hosted 5 Live Events with upwards of 5000 viewers.

TORONTO (PRWEB) APRIL 20, 2020
Orenda Software Solutions announced today that its unique social positioning data is now available to the financial community through the Bloomberg Enterprise Access Point.
Orenda is an artificial intelligence platform that rapidly analyzes and converts social media content into quantified scores that clearly communicate public perception of a corporation's reputation and predicts how human emotions impact financial markets.

Orenda's platform measures data across nine social categories (Trust, Public Satisfaction, Social Responsibility, Corporate Influence, Exchange of Benefits, Character, Commitment, General Tone, and Overall Social Positioning). These measurements allow investors to determine when a company or person has fallen out of alignment with social values and public expectations, providing deep insights to assist in making informed investment decisions. Orenda's social positioning data will support investors performing traditional and quantitative research, portfolio allocation, risk management, and more.
The full data set consists of numerical scores derived from nearly 1 Billion data points; increasing at an average of 115,000 data points per day, every day. The data is processed through Orenda's proprietary lexicons and algorithms for scoring and safe storing. The data does not include any personally identifiable information.

Advertising fraud prevention specialist introduces free solution to help businesses of all sizes protect their ad spend.

SAN FRANCISCO (PRWEB) APRIL 20, 2020
Leading ad fraud prevention specialist, TrafficGuard, announced today the launch of its free pay-per-click (PPC) protection. With the launch of their free ad fraud protection, TrafficGuard is committed to helping businesses ensure their ad spend generates real advertising engagement. The free version of TrafficGuard's award-winning fraud protection gives businesses the transparency they need to protect themselves from ad fraud, both during and after the COVID-19 pandemic.
Businesses lose up to 30 percent of their budgets to ad fraud from fraudster tactics like bots and click fraud. In the U.S. alone, the daily cost of ad fraud is expected to surpass $100 million by 2023. TrafficGuard believes that with the power of transparency, businesses can stem that loss so their advertising delivers a better return on investment.
The COVID-19 crisis has also taken a heavy toll on ad budgets in the United States. The Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) has forecasted a 33 percent decrease in digital ad spend from March to June of this year. Their recent survey also revealed that 70 percent of advertisers have already adjusted or paused their advertising efforts. For small and medium sized businesses who rely on digital advertising to get customers, it will be vital to mitigate losses to ad fraud.
"Ad budgets are getting slashed and ad fraud is continuing to reduce them even further. By offering our PPC ad fraud protection for free, we want to make it easier for businesses of all sizes to get the transparency they need to fight fraud to protect their advertising," said Luke Taylor, founder and COO of TrafficGuard. "At TrafficGuard we have been working hard, from home, to get our free solution ready for businesses now, when they need it most. As a demonstration of our commitment to building a stronger digital advertising ecosystem, we have decided our free solution is here to stay. This is a really challenging time for many businesses and we want to help alleviate some of that pressure on businesses. In addition to our free offering, our premium PPC solution is now pay-as-you-go, allowing our larger customers more flexibility in tough times."
As part of the launch, TrafficGuard is introducing pay-as-you-go pricing, a characteristic untypical of anti-fraud software. This offer gives advertisers greater flexibility to use TrafficGuard's premium PPC protection in a time when ad spend may be fluctuating. TrafficGuard's mission is to drive trust and transparency in the digital advertising ecosystem. By equipping marketers with the tools to protect their ad spend, it will become harder for fraudsters to sustain their operations, strengthening the whole digital advertising ecosystem.
With a more accessible ad fraud prevention solution, TrafficGuard hopes transparency will one day reign in the ad ecosystem. Only when individual businesses of all sizes can afford to protect themselves against ad fraud will the industry be able to rid itself of this relentless budget-draining issue. When everyone is better equipped to protect their own ad spend, it increases the difficulty of ad fraud perpetrators to make money and survive.

Ocean Tomo Bid-Ask Market patent auction lot 110 consists of 9 US patents. The inventions disclose Presence Awareness to Internet Meetings, remote pointers of all participants, in real-time and similarly remote pointers of visitors of third-party websites.

CHICAGO (PRWEB) APRIL 20, 2020
Ocean Tomo Transactions, LLC will auction a portfolio of nine US patents related to network communications, and more specifically to multiple-party communications conducted between computers in a computer network. The Patents in lot 110 disclose Presence Awareness to Internet Meetings, remote pointers of all participants, in real-time and similarly remote pointers of visitors of third-party websites.
High bandwidth internet connections have facilitated new forms of online collaboration, allowing users to conduct multiple-party communications over an internet connection by sharing a common view of a displayed page in an internet browser window while allowing users to react or post comments on the displayed page, which is transmitted to all users, thus facilitating online discussion. However, such communications suffer from a common problem due to delays in transmitting posted comments and other information between the parties. In some cases these delays reduce the usefulness of an online communication since the parties do not feel a presence of other participants in the communication.
The Patents in lot 110 disclose an invention that over come the common problems due to delays in transmitting posted comments and other information to improve a user's experience of such multiple-party communications in a computer network.
As internet communication applications generally do not provide real-time Presence Awareness about participants, the patents in lot 110 would be of interest to social portals, internet meeting providers, e-commerce providers, website publishers and hosting providers, instant messaging providers and companies in the online gaming and gambling sectors.
Even before the COVID-19 outbreak and resulting shelter-in-place-orders resulting in a significant increase in the global web-based conferencing utilization, this market was provided to grow by 10% between 2019 and 2005 according to Grandview Research.
You can view the patents in Ocean Tomo Bid-Ask Market auction lot 110 here. To request bidder credentials or for further information on this auction or other auctions on the Ocean Tomo Bid-Ask Market, contact Layna Guo at Layna@OTI.com or 1-312-327-8179.

The Ocean Tomo Bid-Ask Market is an open on-line platform to buy and sell patents. This market is an important step forward, both as a simplified solution for patent transactions as well as a source of information on patent pricing.

Woolpert GIS Specialist Matthew Wellinski discovers data anomalies in FSRM funding at Hurlburt Field and develops a process that could translate to savings across the Air Force.

HURLBURT FIELD, FLA. (PRWEB) APRIL 20, 2020
Hurlburt Field will receive an additional $2.27 million in Facilities, Sustainment, Restoration and Modernization (FSRM) funding thanks to data anomalies discovered by Woolpert GIS Specialist Matthew Wellinski. Hurlburt Field is home to the Air Force Special Operations Command and the 1st Special Operations Wing.
Wellinski has been assigned by the U.S. Air Force (USAF) GeoBase program to Hurlburt Field, 1st Special Operations Civil Engineer Squadron's Real Property Office, as a GIS analyst to support the GeoBase program and integrate real property information for the base. His position is funded by the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) Geographic Information Office (GIO), to explore how real property and GeoBase collaboration can benefit both programs and the base.
Wellinski said these data anomalies were detected after Hurlburt Field leadership asked its Real Property Office whether the base was receiving less FSRM funding than it should, as compared to other bases. This initiated a thorough review of Hurlburt Field's assets, geospatial data and real property inspection process.
"Military installations receive funding based on the number of assets they have on their real property record, and real property inspections are done every five years at a micro level," Wellinski said. "By changing that review to a macro view, we were able to identify discrepancies in the data and accurately account for assets. By opening that aperture and evaluating how our data are being calculated, we realized that Hurlburt should receive an additional $2.27 million in FSRM funds."
Wellinski attributed the data anomalies to a combination of issues, from conflicting technical knowledge of assets to record keeping to vague guidance from support teams. He said this type of evaluation would benefit all bases and the USAF in general because it ensures the accuracy of the data and appropriate FSRM funding.
"After identifying our process change, I took it upon myself to look at an exported copy of another base's real property records," Wellinski said. "I found them to be missing or have significantly fewer transformers on record than were identified in their GeoBase GIS database and notified the appropriate personnel."
Hurlburt Field Asset Accountability Element Chief Barry L. Woods worked with Wellinski throughout this process.
"Matthew possesses a unique ability to see beyond what has been for years," Woods said. "He applies new methods, using updated capabilities in technology that allow us to identify opportunities to enhance our support of the mission. I cannot express how talented this young man is and how appreciative we are to have him as part of our team."
Woolpert Geospatial Program Director Vince Sclafani said data anomalies are a known problem at Air Force bases because each department is focused on executing its own mission, and they are not consistently reconciling their data with the real property and GeoBase datasets. He said data analyses such as these are highly beneficial for installations because their funding is appropriate and accountable. He said Woolpert is in the process of providing similar data analysis and reconciliation for the Air Force at the enterprise level through the GeoBase program.
"The proliferation of data and its applications benefits agencies and organizations around the world by ensuring the data are reconciled across usages," Sclafani said. "This is an added layer of security that Woolpert is able to provide because we have the data capabilities, as well as military and national security experience."

Flosum, a highly-rated DevOps tool for Salesforce, sees continued demand for its solution, despite current economic climate. The market is still strong for solutions that improve development team productivity, increase release cycle velocity, and improve release quality for a better customer experience.

SAN RAMON, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 20, 2020
Flosum, a highly-rated DevOps tool for Salesforce, sees continued demand for its solution despite current economic climate with 237% first quarter growth year over year. The market is still strong for solutions that improve development team productivity, increase release cycle velocity, and improve release quality for a better customer experience.
Flosum cites several reasons for their success. First, security – as the only fully native tool of its kind, Flosum ensures that the codebase and data never leave the customer's Salesforce environment. Other tools extract data from Salesforce and push it to different hosted platforms that the vendor's staff has access to. Second, Flosum handles all the unique metadata and component types associated with declarative development. Finally, Flosum is designed with a "clicks, not code" user-friendly interface to include Salesforce admins and citizen developers in the process.
"Salesforce has become the leading platform for enterprise applications, but DevOps tools based solely upon Git have not kept pace," said Poonam Kodnani, Chief Operating Officer at Flosum. "We designed Flosum to be the most comprehensive and enterprise-grade release management and version control system for Salesforce application development and customization. And for security-conscious organizations, we are the only choice that can ensure no data or codebase will leave the Salesforce cloud."
Flosum's highly effective products and excellent support have led to 98.2% rating for "would recommend," greater than 100% revenue retention, and over 250 5-star ratings on the Salesforce AppExchange.

Flosum, a highly-rated DevOps tool for Salesforce, sees continued demand for its solution, despite current economic climate. The market is still strong for solutions that improve development team productivity, increase release cycle velocity, and improve release quality for a better customer experience.

SAN RAMON, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 20, 2020
Flosum, a highly-rated DevOps tool for Salesforce, sees continued demand for its solution despite current economic climate with 237% first quarter growth year over year. The market is still strong for solutions that improve development team productivity, increase release cycle velocity, and improve release quality for a better customer experience.
Flosum cites several reasons for their success. First, security – as the only fully native tool of its kind, Flosum ensures that the codebase and data never leave the customer's Salesforce environment. Other tools extract data from Salesforce and push it to different hosted platforms that the vendor's staff has access to. Second, Flosum handles all the unique metadata and component types associated with declarative development. Finally, Flosum is designed with a "clicks, not code" user-friendly interface to include Salesforce admins and citizen developers in the process.
"Salesforce has become the leading platform for enterprise applications, but DevOps tools based solely upon Git have not kept pace," said Poonam Kodnani, Chief Operating Officer at Flosum. "We designed Flosum to be the most comprehensive and enterprise-grade release management and version control system for Salesforce application development and customization. And for security-conscious organizations, we are the only choice that can ensure no data or codebase will leave the Salesforce cloud."
Flosum's highly effective products and excellent support have led to 98.2% rating for "would recommend," greater than 100% revenue retention, and over 250 5-star ratings on the Salesforce AppExchange. Customers range from leading enterprise organizations and government agencies with highly complex teams and security requirements to small teams of Salesforce developers and admins who need to deliver quality releases faster.

Software publisher xkzero announced today the general availability of GetX Search for Sage 100cloud and Sage 100. GetX provides global-search capability right within Sage 100. With the newest release, global search is now supported for the Sage 100 Job Cost construction module.

CHICAGO (PRWEB) APRIL 21, 2020
Software publisher xkzero announced today the general availability of GetX Search for Sage 100cloud and Sage 100. GetX provides global-search capability right within Sage 100. With the newest release, global search is now supported for the Sage 100 Job Cost construction module.
"The challenge with structured systems like Sage 100 is that the user must navigate a complex menu structure in order to locate the data they want. That means that before you can take action, precious time is taken winding through a series of modules, tasks and options," says Paul Ziliak, xkzero co-founder. "With GetX the user enters the information they want is a browser window. Instantly the results are presented in an organized fashion. The user can then launch whatever task they need to perform right from the search browser."
Research from IDC showed that full-time users of traditional mid-market ERP systems spend 25% of their time searching for basic data. xkzero internal tests have shown 70% average time saving across various data search types using GetX. "GetX for Sage 100 will also save your butt. There is data that is simply not searchable using standard Sage 100 tools – memos, long descriptions, dollar amounts, detail lines of transactions. GetX finds that data in the snap of your fingers," Ziliak said.
Ziliak went on to add, "We're especially excited to now support search in the Job Cost module. xkzero served as a development partner to re-write Job Cost for Sage 100 a couple of years ago, so it was a natural for us."
About xkzero
xkzero is an award-winning software development and consulting company headquartered in Des Plaines, Illinois. Since 2005, xkzero has been providing leading mid-market ERP and mobile sales and delivery solutions for wholesale distributors and manufacturers across North America.

"Attackers are innovating, so we have to innovate," adds Russ Horn, President for CoNetrix.

KnowBe4, the provider of the world's largest security awareness training and simulated phishing platform, today announced it has ranked number 53 on G2's list of Best Software Companies 2020. KnowBe4 received five additional awards for leadership, best results, best relationship, best usability and most implementable.
Akin to The People's Choice Awards for tech companies, G2's Best Software Awards rank the world's best software companies and products based on authentic, timely reviews from real users.

With over 57,844 software companies on G2, KnowBe4 is honored to be recognized on the Best Software Companies list, an achievement that can only be earned through the endorsement of its users.

"With the highest traffic and engagement, largest selection of product and services, and highest quality data, G2 analyzes more than 4 million data point to determine which products and companies make the list."
"When we built the KnowBe4 platform back in 2010, one of our main goals was to create a platform that was intuitive and easy for customers to implement, so it's wonderful to be recognized in those areas," said Stu Sjouwerman, CEO, KnowBe4. "We're all about providing fantastic customer service and it doesn't get any better than earning an award based on reviews directly from our customers. We take our commitment to excellence in everything that we do at KnowBe4 very seriously, so it's amazing to be recognized as a best software company by G2."
Criteria: Winners were determined based on reviews left at G2Crowd.com between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31, 2018. All scores are calculated using G2's algorithms, including for Satisfaction and Market Presence, explained in detail here. Further information on methodology is available upon request.

Partnership expands healthcare reach for at-risk populations while protecting healthcare providers

DUBLIN, OHIO (PRWEB) APRIL 21, 2020
Updox, a comprehensive Telehealth and Collaboration Platform, today announced a partnership with the National Association of Free & Charitable Clinics (NAFC) to offer its full telehealth solution to NAFC physicians and clinics in the fight against COVID-19. Updox Telehealth includes HIPAA-compliant Video Chat, SMS and Secure Text messaging to support virtual care as a complete patient experience.
NAFC supports 1,400 free and charitable clinics and charitable pharmacies in the United States that serve more than 2 million patients and 111,000 medical volunteers. The organization is guided by its mission to ensure that the medically underserved have access to affordable quality health care.
"An essential part of fighting this pandemic is keeping patients out of emergency departments, urgent cares and waiting rooms, particularly those who are in at-risk groups. On top of that, patients still need routine care, monitoring and regular check-ups. That makes a reliable, easily-accessible telehealth solution essential to care," said Nicole Lamoureux, NAFC President and CEO. "We're grateful to offer the Updox telehealth solution to our clinics. It's easy to use for both practices and patients and offers safe, secure ways for care to be delivered and lives to be saved."
Updox Telehealth solutions are key to providing virtual care by giving healthcare providers HIPAA-compliant channels to reach patients who are too ill to get to the office, homebound, quarantined, immobile, or in rural environments. Updox Telehealth is easily available through any smartphone, with no apps or downloads required. As healthcare providers navigate this pandemic, Updox helps them safely treat their patients, protect staff and lower overall risks to help lessen the spread of COVID-19.
"Getting access to medical care is a challenge for many Americans and this pandemic only intensifies that need. We're committed to helping physicians and other healthcare providers connect with patients in a way that is secure, convenient and safe," said Michael Morgan, CEO, Updox. "We make telehealth as easy as making a phone call and can connect patients to local healthcare providers or specialists across the nation to get them the care needed without any added risk. NAFC member clinics do incredibly valuable work across the nation and we're honored to support them in their efforts."
In 2018, Updox started a partnership with the North Carolina Association of Free and Charitable Care Clinics (NCAFCC), where their clinics used the Updox platform to improve care coordination and patient
engagement. In addition to using other Updox solutions, the use of Updox Video Chat expanded access to care while giving low-income patients added flexibility and choice. NCAFCC's use of Video Chat has rapidly increased during the current pandemic.
"The impact of telehealth during COVID-19 has been lifesaving. Already, the clinics have counted nearly 4,000 patient encounters through Updox telehealth and conducted 2,059 medically-related video chats with patients. Telehealth allows clinic staff to safely triage patients to determine if care can be managed at home or if they need to be seen at the clinic or another facility," says Randy Jordan, CEO, NCAFCC. "Undoubtedly, telehealth will transform how we engage with patients going forward and Updox has shown itself to be a leader in the telehealth movement."
About Updox:
Changing the way healthcare connects, Updox's telehealth solutions are part of an all-in-one healthcare collaboration platform. Named for the past five years to the Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies, Updox is integrated with more than 100 electronic health records (EHR) and pharmacy management systems and serves more than 470,000 users and 170 million patients.

WASHINGTON (PRWEB) APRIL 21, 2020
Active Navigation, the data privacy and governance software provider, today announced it is has released a free-to-use COVID-19 Rule-Pack which offers corporate visibility into COVID-19 related activity across an organization's data estate. This Rule-Pack also helps to prepare companies for potential government legislation which may require documentation of pandemic related actions as a wave of COVID-19 related personal data is created, shared and stored.
In response to COVID-19, hundreds of thousands of data points such as geolocation and health information are being generated and analyzed to slow the spread of the virus. While this data may technically not be considered Personally Identifiable Information (PII), it is still sensitive and should be protected.

The no-cost COVID-19 Rule-Pack, which integrates into Active Navigation's core product, Discovery Center, enables rapid and defensible remediation decisions to be made across any connected repository.
"Businesses can have a huge positive impact during this pandemic, and we feel strongly about working together as a society to support one another," said Peter Baumann, Active Navigation CEO. "With massive amounts of COVID-19 data being shared at an unprecedented scale, we want to actively support organizations, private and public, with governance tools they can implement quickly and securely."
These COVID-19 rules:

Identify specific high-value keywords pertaining to the pandemic and its potential impacts

Expediates requests for information to ensure that vital information is identified and available, yet properly protected

Helps organizations to rapidly respond to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests and reduce the time and cost burden placed on staff and resources

Active Navigation will be demoing the Rule-Pack at FEDSpace - the federal data governance conference - later this year. For more information about the Rule-Pack, please contact Active Navigation or read this blog post.

Following a three-month long study, Data Scientists at Northwestern University declare Low-Code, Technology Agnostic Data and Analytics platform Plexa the winner against Hand Coding.

BARRINGTON, ILL. (PRWEB) APRIL 21, 2020
Low-code paradigm is shaping the future of Data and Analytics, arming organizations with high productivity and low total cost of ownership. Low-Code in Data and Analytics is following the footsteps of predecessor, Low-Code Application Development (LCAD). Gartner estimates that by 2024, Low-Code development will be responsible for more than 65% of enterprise application development activities. According to Forrester Research, the total spending in this category is forecasted to hit $21.2 billion by 2022, representing a compound annual growth rate of roughly 40% (Forbes). The race for disruptive innovation is on. Following the award of landmark US Patents, Kavi Global decided pit their Low-Code, Technology-Agnostic Data and Analytics Platform Plexa against professionals.
The Study
Five data scientists from Northwestern University's Masters in Analytics Program (MSiA) 2019 class took on the challenge during their Capstone project. Each data scientist was randomly assigned 2 Healthcare Data and Analytics use cases to solve using Plexa and hand coding. Scientists compared the two approaches in random sequence order across 6 Phases of the development lifecycle (Exploratory Data Analysis, Data Preparation, Model Development, Model Tuning, Model Validation and Model Accuracy), and ranked their satisfaction. Comparison criteria included User Experience, Capability, Functionality, and Productivity (time taken for development and documentation).
The Outcome
Plexa won in 3 of the 6 Phases (Data Preparation, Model Development and Model Tuning), tied in 1 (Model Accuracy), and hand coding won in 2 Phases (Exploratory Data Analysis & Model Validation). "This study made me a believer in the potential of Plexa and the commercial implications of empowering Citizen Data Scientists" revealed Dr. Diego Klabjan, Director of Master of Science in Analytics & Center of Deep Learning at Northwestern University. "Our team loved Plexa and provided recommendations to improve the Platform in the 2 Phases where hand coding won. We are planning to conduct another 9-month long exhaustive study with incoming Citizen Data Scientists to our Master's program, starting in the fall quarter of 2020", Dr. Klabjan added.
For this study Northwestern Data Scientists used a large, clinical dataset, developed by MIT Lab, named MIMIC II - Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care II. This dataset includes deidentified Healthcare data consisting of Demographics, Vital Signs, Laboratory Tests, Medications and more. The data includes 40,000+ unique patients over 60,000+ ICU stays at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center from 2001to 2012.
The 10 healthcare clinical use cases solved using Machine Learning and AI techniques during this study include predicting: Readmission, Discharge, Number of ICU Stay Days, Acute Kidney Injury, Chronic Heart Failure, Adult Sepsis, Days to Mortality, Mortality by Drug Adverse Events, Pulmonary Embolism, and Pneumonia.
Plexa
Plexa is an integrated Development, Deployment and Operations Management environment for Data and Analytics. Being Low-Code, Plexa's visual development paradigm offers compelling short-term productivity gains delivering speed, quality, and cost advantages. These capabilities are critical to efficiently manage the solution lifecycle, improve business-IT collaboration, and realize high-value business outcomes. "In addition to being low-code, Plexa's patented design is technology agnostic, freeing our customers from vendor-lock-in and future-proofing Data and Analytics Solutions. These capabilities result in long-term risk mitigation including: technology obsolescence and skillset obsolesce, eliminating complex coding requirements and empowering Citizen Data Scientists" explains Srinivasan Chandrasekaran, Head of Software at Kavi Global.
Out-of-the box Data Engineering capabilities of Plexa include Data Ingestion, Transformation, Business Rules, Data Catalog, Data Quality, Scheduling, and Administration. Out-of-the-box Analytics capabilities of Plexa include: Data Prep, Feature Transformation, Feature Extraction, Sampling, Data Mining and Predictive Analytics, including dozens of popular algorithms in Machine Learning and AI. The Northwestern study was performed on Amazon AWS Cloud Platform. Plexa is also available for On-Prem deployment or on other major cloud platforms including Microsoft Azure and Google GCP.
"We are grateful to the Northwestern team for conducting the study and providing us with valuable insights and expert feedback for further improving Plexa. We value our partnership and the ongoing collaboration with the Northwestern University", says Vijitha Kaduwela, Founder and CEO of Kavi Global.

Chambers of Commerce, local municipalities and others charged with economic development across the country are working with OperationMainStreet.com.

HUNTINGTON, N.Y. (PRWEB) APRIL 21, 2020
Launched in early April, OperationMainStreet.com is a national gift card directory of over 50,000 small businesses. Born in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the goal of the project is to drive local patrons to buy gift cards from merchants in their community to help save these businesses and the jobs they create.
The Operation Main Street site has added a webpage for every state, county, town and ZIP code in the USA. Any individual or organization looking to drive economic development for a specific region can browse the directory by state, county, town or ZIP and use the resulting link to promote their local businesses. If a local Chamber of Commerce or other organization wants to promote multiple ZIP codes, they can use the Claim Your Town feature. They can enter multiple ZIP codes to cover a specific geographic area and OperationMainStreet will automatically create a custom page and send the link.
There is no cost for a business to participate in the Operation Main Street directory. If a company sells their gift cards online and wants to list their website in the directory they can simply fill out the form on the site.
The project is made possible by gift card technology and services provided by eGifter, a small company located on an actual Main Street in New York. "The team feels the pain of small business everywhere and welcomes the opportunity to share our resources to drive this initiative," said Tyler Roye, CEO of eGifter.
The Queens Chamber of Commerce in New York created their custom gift card directory page using just the ZIP codes of the towns in their chamber.
https://local.egifter.com/location/queens-chamber-of-commerce
"The Queens Chamber of Commerce is thrilled to cooperate with our neighbors on Long Island and support Operation Main Street right here in Queens," says Thomas J. Grech, President & CEO. "This is a project that truly helps small businesses during these unprecedented times by allowing them to sell more gift cards, providing additional cash flow to get them through the crisis. I applaud Tyler Roye and his team at eGifter of New York for using their technology for this effort. As New Yorkers, we are ALL in this together," says Grech.
LongIsland.com, a regional online hub for content and events, chose every ZIP code on Long Island.
https://local.egifter.com/location/LongIsland
"LongIsland.com was happy to promote the site as we look for ways to help the community," said Andrew Hazen, CEO of LongIsland.com. "We even added it to our primary navigation."
Any merchant processor, gift card processor or gift card platform that is powering gift cards for small merchants can have all of their clients added to the directory.
"We can quickly integrate with processors to instantly add thousands of merchants to the platform," Roye added. "We hope many providers will reach out to join this effort."
About OperationMainStreet.com
Operation Main Street was born in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Our mission is to help small businesses all over the US sell more gift cards, providing additional cash flow to get them through the COVID-19. Our hope is that this will save many small businesses and the jobs they create.

To respond to the growing pandemic, the company has now deployed its solution at hospitals and healthcare providers in China, Russia, Italy, Serbia, and Brazil, and has engaged additional hospital systems and providers around the globe.
"Since we completed our initial research and shifted the company's resources and AI expertise to focus on COVID-19 solutions, we've seen incredibly strong demand from healthcare systems and providers around the world. Our system has enabled these hospitals to enhance their ability to manage symptomatic patients – especially those with severe or worsening respiratory status," said Moshe Becker, CEO and Co-Founder of RADLogics. "As we've seen in the surge of patients across the world, ERs and ICUs can become overwhelmed. Our solution improves patient care by providing doctors with a 'Corona Score' that provides clinicians automatic measurements of disease extent of COVID-19 patients, thus allowing doctors to better manage a patient's treatment."
Designed for easy integration and installation both on-premise and via the cloud – RADLogics' algorithms are supported by the company's patented workflow software platform that enables rapid deployment of the solution at multiple hospitals using commercial cloud-computing resources through Amazon Web Services (AWS), that can process up to 1 million CT studies per day. RADLogics has distribution partners in several key markets including China (ChainZ), and Russia. Notable RADLogics' deployments to date include the following installations:

Russia – Deployed by BinomixRay, after a pilot, Moscow Department of Healthcare's Diagnostics and Telemedicine Center is considering to scale the solution system wide in Moscow.

China – RADLogics' solution was studied through deployments in several hospitals, and the system was critical in the country's efforts to manage the COVID-19 surge.

Italy – RADLogics' system was initially deployed in the San Raffaele Hospital in Milan, Italy for investigational use as part of a pilot. Based on the effectiveness of the solution, it is in the process of being deployed widely throughout the hospital.

"Current epidemics are calling for new healthcare management approaches, and effective clinical management depends more on disease severity than on the virus identification," said Dr. Sergey Morozov, MD, PhD, MPH, who serves as CEO of Moscow Diagnostics and Telemedicine Center. "We are looking forward to integrating RADLogics' AI-powered solution across our hospital network throughout Moscow where imaging plays a crucial role in patient management – specifically chest CT. It allows defining symptomatic patients and stratifying them into mild, moderate, and severe disease burden groups. This clinical risk assessment is greatly supporting decisions on treatment at home, at the hospital, or at the ICU – especially when PCR results are pending or repeatedly false-negative."
"In Russia, we are leveraging CT to help determine which patients can be discharged from the hospital for home quarantine even when PCR is still positive," added Dr. Morozov, who served as Past-President of European Society of Medical Imaging Informatics. "These massive imaging data sets should be read by physicians reliably and promptly. Radiology automation or intelligence augmentation on top of teleradiology systems empowers clinical decision making, which in turn saves lives of the patients, preserves scarce hospital resources, and prevents physicians' burnout and morbidity."
Since announcing the findings of the initial study that RADLogics' CT image analysis algorithm achieved a high level of accuracy for detecting COVID-19 on CT, the company has processed thousands of additional patient cases in China, Russia, and Italy. Additional research and results on a dataset comprised with 110 confirmed COVID-19 patients from Zhejiang province, China is now available in preprint on arXiv.org.

The AnChain.AI team is excited to announce an official partnership with Splunk, provider of the Data-to-Everything platform, as part of the Splunk Technology Alliance Partner program.

SAN JOSE, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 21, 2020
Per the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), the laundering of illicit funds is perhaps the most critical threat to financial infrastructure today, compromising an estimated 2-5% of global GDP and up to two-trillion USD annually. Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Combatting the Financing of Terrorism (CFT) compliance and the tracing of laundered funds, however, is increasingly more difficult, as criminals utilize ever more advanced obfuscation tools to cover their tracks. Cryptocurrency has become a critical link in the money-laundering chain, adding a new dimension of complexity to the investigation of financial crime.
AnChain.AI is combining the behavior-based machine learning of its BEI: Blockchain Ecosystem Intelligence with Splunk's world-leading data infrastructure, enabling financial institutions, law enforcement agencies, and regulators to trace the flow of criminally implicated funds, investigate suspicious transaction activity, and track down suspects.
"The AnChain.AI team is proud to partner with Splunk, one of the world's top cybersecurity companies, enhancing blockchain security, risk management, and compliance strategies through the prestigious Splunk ecosystem." said Victor Fang, Ph.D., Co-founder and CEO.
AnChain.AI's Blockchain Ecosystem Intelligence (BEI) is empowering the fight against financial crime, tracking down scammers exploiting coronavirus-driven panic through pandemic-essential product listings. Even as the scammers receive payments in various denominations and move to launder them through traditional bank wires, cryptocurrency conversions, mixers, and other obfuscation tactics, the AnChain.AI team is able to follow their transaction trail, identify associated wallets, and even pinpoint their geolocations.
BEI is coming soon to Splunkbase. Sign up here to learn more.

AuriQ Systems has announced the free beta release of their new digital analytics service, MyData PivotBillions, for cookie privacy and ITP compliant online marketing. This service utilizes enhanced user identification methods that are fully compliant with cookie privacy regulations and helps to solve the pains of incomplete marketing attribution.

PASADENA, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 22, 2020
User privacy is one of the highest priorities of most major browser vendors, with Apple Safari leading the way with it's ITP (intelligent tracking prevention) features. Particularly within the crosshairs of ITP and similar measures are any attempts to do cross site tracking through javascript based cookies. These measures essentially block all third party cookies and purge many first party cookies within 1 to 7 days. As a result, many digital analytics services (e.g. - Google Analytics) that rely on javascript tags are now experiencing difficulty in assigning new vs returning visitor identifiers and determining accurate attribution scores. Unfortunately, this has had a significant impact for marketers to be able to analyze the effectiveness of their online campaigns.
AuriQ's MyData service is designed to be able to maintain high accuracy of visitor identification, regardless of browser, minimizing data loss for digital marketers and analysts. This is made possible by allowing clients to use domains that they own as the originating source of the tracking tag. MyData's same-same domain compliance ensures that browser privacy features recognizes that the site setting the cookie is the same as the site the visitor is browsing on, thus any identifiers assigned are not flagged as being used for cross site tracking. At the same time, it is a fully managed hosted service where data is collected and stored on behalf of the clients, and reporting is provided as downloadable files that are easily opened with Excel, Google Sheets, Tableau or any other BI tool. With MyData, marketers and analysts can rest assured that their on-site attribution as well as new and returning visitor segmentation are accurate.
AuriQ is offering the MyData PivotBillions service for free up to 10 million pageviews per month per account. To find out more, users can go to the MyData Pivot Billions website (https://mydata.pivotbillions.com) and sign up for a free account.
About AuriQ Systems, Inc.
Since its inception in 1996, AuriQ has been creating high performance data analysis solutions to make our clients' data more visible, accessible and actionable.

Incident Responders Challenged to Match Their Skills Against Colleagues in First of its Kind Contest with $5,000 Prize

NEW YORK (PRWEB) APRIL 22, 2020
Cynet (http://www.cynet.com) today announced the company's IR Challenge for incident response professionals. The first-place winner of the contest will receive a $5,000 prize as the contest qualifies the investigative capabilities of participants against a set of challenges designed by top IR experts. The Cynet IR Challenge is open now and can be accessed at https://incident-response-challenge.com/. The contest will remain open until May 15th, 2020.
With the launch of this challenge, Cynet has assembled the top analysts and researchers to build out the challenges in this IR contest and ensure that solving the presented problems will strain the skills of even the most experienced responders. The main guideline in the IR Challenge is that the tests reflect real life scenarios rather than artificial mind drills. In light of that, the team has reviewed a large number of documented investigations to distill a total of 28 patterns, starting from easy and becoming progressively more difficult as the IR professional proceeds.
Incident response (IR) is a methodical approach to orchestrating and managing the response after a cyberattack or other security breach. The objective is to confidently manage the situation in a way that reduces damage and limits recovery time and costs. Prominent to this process is the ability to conduct a forensic investigation across the attacked environment in order to form a clear understanding of the incident's root cause, attack vectors and overall impact. The challenge also tests for IR investigative strengths of participating individuals, allowing them to measure and sharpen their skill set.
"While Capture the Flag challenges that test hacking capabilities are common, there has never been a publicly available test for IR related forensic investigation," said Dori Harpaz, VP, Marketing, Cynet. "In the course of this timeframe anyone can try their hand, starting from the first and proceeding to the other increasingly difficult IR challenges. We welcome all participants and will reward the most accomplished with a financial prize, recognition and a certificate of completion."
Success in the IR Challenge will be based on the results as well as the time it took the contestant to solve. At the end of the two-week contest period, a winner will be declared and the results of the challenge will become available. The Cynet IR Challenge questionnaire will remain online afterward as a free resource for IR practitioners.
To participate in the IR Challenge, please register for free at https://incident-response-challenge.com/.

No contact" service appointments lets owners maintain their vehicles without leaving home

BOSTON (PRWEB) APRIL 22, 2020
Zippity, the mobile automotive service and software company, is introducing at-home service appointments for car owners forced by the Coronavirus quarantine to stay at home. Until now, only employers of large companies have had access to Zippity's ultra convenient onsite car care program, offered by large employers as a perk. Now Zippity is extending the service to accommodate all Boston area car owners impacted by the quarantine. As an essential service, Zippity is able to continue operations at this time. There are no extra fees for at-home service appointments.
"We're happy to expand our coverage to accommodate anyone dealing with the difficulties of this outbreak," said Chief Executive Officer, Edward Warren. "We've all been asked to do our part by staying home and practicing social distancing, but essential services like car repair are still necessary for many customers. By making onsite car care available at customers' homes, we hope to relieve a potential stressor during this unusual time while adhering to public health recommendations."
Zippity performs these services with a "no contact" method. Customers request service online at Zippitycars.com. On service day, a uniformed technician arrives at the customer's home, retrieves the car key from a pre-arranged location, and performs all services on site. Technicians are trained on CDC guidelines for avoiding transmission of COVID-19, wear disposable gloves during the entire appointment, then spray and wipe down surfaces after service is complete. Customer communications are conducted online, so no face-to-face interaction between the customer and the service technician is required.
At-home service requires car owners to have a fairly level, off-street work area with sufficient room to safely move around the vehicle. Zippity service appointments are performed over containment mats, so there is no risk of oil or other vehicle fluids being spilled into the environment.
Zippity At-Home Services were initially offered exclusively to employees of companies that partner with Zippity for workplace services. These services have now been expanded to car owners across the Greater Boston area. Car owners can learn more about Zippity at-home services by visiting http://www.zippitycars.com/at-home

The survey of higher education's immediate priorities related to the COVID-19 pandemic was conducted April 6-19 by Bay View Analytics on behalf of OLC, WCET, UPCEA, CDLRA and Every Learner Everywhere, and underwritten by Cengage; findings will be discussed in a webinar, this Friday, April 24.

BOSTON (PRWEB) APRIL 22, 2020
A new survey of U.S. higher education leaders and practitioners reveals nearly all (90%) higher education institutions surveyed used some form of emergency distance education to complete the Spring 2020 term. "Digital Learning Pulse Survey: Immediate Priorities," conducted online this month by Bay View Analytics (formerly the Babson Survey Research Group), also indicates emergency online instruction differs from a pre-planned fully online course. Even experienced online instructors had to improvise as they went along, with more than one-half (51%) using new teaching methods for these newly online courses.
The survey was conducted in partnership by the Online Learning Consortium (OLC), WICHE Cooperative for Educational Technologies (WCET), University Professional and Continuing Education Association (UPCEA), Canadian Digital Learning Research Association (CDLRA), and Every Learner Everywhere, with the support of underwriter and primary partner, Cengage, and media support by Inside Higher Ed (IHE). These organizations have come together to help identify and focus the resources needed to support educators and institutions in addressing current and future challenges related to the rapid shift to remote instruction during the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.
"It's worth noting that, even as faculty identified a variety of support options that would be helpful during this challenging time, their most pressing concern is for their students," said Jeff Seaman, lead researcher and director of Bay View Analytics. "When asked what assistance would be most helpful, 57 percent identified additional support for their newly online students – rating it more important than support for themselves."
Additional findings from the survey include:

Almost all institutions (97%) moving classes online had to call on faculty with no previous online teaching experience. One-half (50%) of the institutions were able to rely on at least some faculty with online teaching experience.

A majority of faculty (56%) who moved courses online were using teaching methods that they had never used before.

Faculty had to make a number of adjustments to their courses to complete them online. While only a few faculty (17%) made changes to required readings, roughly one-half (48%) reduced the amount of work they expected. About one-third (32%) lowered their expectations for the quality of student work.

"This is a transformative moment for educational institutions – one that will unquestionably have lasting and likely unforeseen impacts," said Jennifer Mathes, Ph.D., chief executive officer for the Online Learning Consortium. "We are partnering on this research to help understand the transition that institutions are currently facing and how we can best support them as they navigate the new reality."
"The transition to an emergency version of online learning happened so fast, that it is helpful to pause briefly and reflect," said Russ Poulin, executive director of WCET. "We first need to thank the frontline heroes who made the impossible happen in transitioning the courses. The survey helps us to understand better what actions were taken and what steps are needed to proceed."
"The massive tectonic shift to online during the pandemic vividly illustrates the vital role played by deans of professional and continuing education, chief online learning officers, and many others across the institution like instructional designers and online student service personnel," said Bob Hansen, CEO of UPCEA. "Imagine this crisis happening just ten years ago, let alone fifteen or more. It's clear that the investments made in highly entrepreneurial units charged with driving online strategy have saved the day for higher education, positioning us for a future that may look very different."
"Faculty reported that the uncertainty around the fall semester is creating a sense of anxiety," noted Nicole Johnson, Research Director of CDLRA. "Early decisions on how instruction will proceed for the remainder of 2020 are critical for giving faculty time to prepare for ongoing online instruction, particularly if social distancing orders remain in place."
"Navigating this pandemic will test higher education's capacity to provide high-quality, effective teaching and learning in every course, to every student," said Jessica R. WIlliams, Ph.D., Director of Every Learner Everywhere. "By engaging and learning directly from educators who are experiencing the shift to remote teaching and learning, we can better understand the immediate impact, challenges, opportunities, and support needs. We see this survey as an important tool to ensure equitable learning experiences for all students."
"Institutions have done a tremendous job in an extremely short and unexpected time to move to a distance education model during this crisis," said Fernando Bleichmar, General Manager for Higher Education and Skills at Cengage. "But they clearly need additional funding and resources to adjust to the current environment and fulfill their mission of student success. Everyone in the education ecosystem needs to work together to support institutions and help them deliver an affordable, equitable and quality learning experience in an uncertain time ahead."
Webinar: 'The Great (Forced) Shift to Remote Learning'
Survey findings will be presented in a free webinar this Friday, April 24, at 2:00 pm ET, hosted by Inside Higher Ed. "The Great (Forced) Shift to Remote Learning: a Survey of Instructors and Campus Leaders" will feature a discussion with the survey's lead researcher Jeff Seaman, OLC's Jennifer Mathes, as well as Will Austin, president of Warren County Community College, and Inside Higher Ed Editor Doug Lederman. Click here for webinar details and registration.
Methodology
The results are based on responses from 826 U.S. higher education faculty and administrators collected during the period of April 6-19, 2020, representing 641 different institutions. The partners plan to field a follow-up pulse survey this summer to gauge shifts in priorities.

No contact" service appointments lets owners maintain their vehicles without leaving home

BOSTON (PRWEB) APRIL 22, 2020
Zippity, the mobile automotive service and software company, is introducing at-home service appointments for car owners forced by the Coronavirus quarantine to stay at home. Until now, only employers of large companies have had access to Zippity's ultra convenient onsite car care program, offered by large employers as a perk. Now Zippity is extending the service to accommodate all Boston area car owners impacted by the quarantine. As an essential service, Zippity is able to continue operations at this time. There are no extra fees for at-home service appointments.
"We're happy to expand our coverage to accommodate anyone dealing with the difficulties of this outbreak," said Chief Executive Officer, Edward Warren. "We've all been asked to do our part by staying home and practicing social distancing, but essential services like car repair are still necessary for many customers. By making onsite car care available at customers' homes, we hope to relieve a potential stressor during this unusual time while adhering to public health recommendations."
Zippity performs these services with a "no contact" method. Customers request service online at Zippitycars.com. On service day, a uniformed technician arrives at the customer's home, retrieves the car key from a pre-arranged location, and performs all services on site. Technicians are trained on CDC guidelines for avoiding transmission of COVID-19, wear disposable gloves during the entire appointment, then spray and wipe down surfaces after service is complete. Customer communications are conducted online, so no face-to-face interaction between the customer and the service technician is required.
At-home service requires car owners to have a fairly level, off-street work area with sufficient room to safely move around the vehicle. Zippity service appointments are performed over containment mats, so there is no risk of oil or other vehicle fluids being spilled into the environment.
Zippity At-Home Services were initially offered exclusively to employees of companies that partner with Zippity for workplace services. These services have now been expanded to car owners across the Greater Boston area. Car owners can learn more about Zippity at-home services by visiting http://www.zippitycars.com/at-home

The survey of higher education's immediate priorities related to the COVID-19 pandemic was conducted April 6-19 by Bay View Analytics on behalf of OLC, WCET, UPCEA, CDLRA and Every Learner Everywhere, and underwritten by Cengage; findings will be discussed in a webinar, this Friday, April 24.

BOSTON (PRWEB) APRIL 22, 2020
A new survey of U.S. higher education leaders and practitioners reveals nearly all (90%) higher education institutions surveyed used some form of emergency distance education to complete the Spring 2020 term. "Digital Learning Pulse Survey: Immediate Priorities," conducted online this month by Bay View Analytics (formerly the Babson Survey Research Group), also indicates emergency online instruction differs from a pre-planned fully online course. Even experienced online instructors had to improvise as they went along, with more than one-half (51%) using new teaching methods for these newly online courses.
The survey was conducted in partnership by the Online Learning Consortium (OLC), WICHE Cooperative for Educational Technologies (WCET), University Professional and Continuing Education Association (UPCEA), Canadian Digital Learning Research Association (CDLRA), and Every Learner Everywhere, with the support of underwriter and primary partner, Cengage, and media support by Inside Higher Ed (IHE). These organizations have come together to help identify and focus the resources needed to support educators and institutions in addressing current and future challenges related to the rapid shift to remote instruction during the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.
"It's worth noting that, even as faculty identified a variety of support options that would be helpful during this challenging time, their most pressing concern is for their students," said Jeff Seaman, lead researcher and director of Bay View Analytics. "When asked what assistance would be most helpful, 57 percent identified additional support for their newly online students – rating it more important than support for themselves."
Additional findings from the survey include:

Almost all institutions (97%) moving classes online had to call on faculty with no previous online teaching experience. One-half (50%) of the institutions were able to rely on at least some faculty with online teaching experience.

A majority of faculty (56%) who moved courses online were using teaching methods that they had never used before.

Faculty had to make a number of adjustments to their courses to complete them online. While only a few faculty (17%) made changes to required readings, roughly one-half (48%) reduced the amount of work they expected. About one-third (32%) lowered their expectations for the quality of student work.

"This is a transformative moment for educational institutions – one that will unquestionably have lasting and likely unforeseen impacts," said Jennifer Mathes, Ph.D., chief executive officer for the Online Learning Consortium. "We are partnering on this research to help understand the transition that institutions are currently facing and how we can best support them as they navigate the new reality."
"The transition to an emergency version of online learning happened so fast, that it is helpful to pause briefly and reflect," said Russ Poulin, executive director of WCET. "We first need to thank the frontline heroes who made the impossible happen in transitioning the courses. The survey helps us to understand better what actions were taken and what steps are needed to proceed."
"The massive tectonic shift to online during the pandemic vividly illustrates the vital role played by deans of professional and continuing education, chief online learning officers, and many others across the institution like instructional designers and online student service personnel," said Bob Hansen, CEO of UPCEA. "Imagine this crisis happening just ten years ago, let alone fifteen or more. It's clear that the investments made in highly entrepreneurial units charged with driving online strategy have saved the day for higher education, positioning us for a future that may look very different."
"Faculty reported that the uncertainty around the fall semester is creating a sense of anxiety," noted Nicole Johnson, Research Director of CDLRA. "Early decisions on how instruction will proceed for the remainder of 2020 are critical for giving faculty time to prepare for ongoing online instruction, particularly if social distancing orders remain in place."
"Navigating this pandemic will test higher education's capacity to provide high-quality, effective teaching and learning in every course, to every student," said Jessica R. WIlliams, Ph.D., Director of Every Learner Everywhere. "By engaging and learning directly from educators who are experiencing the shift to remote teaching and learning, we can better understand the immediate impact, challenges, opportunities, and support needs. We see this survey as an important tool to ensure equitable learning experiences for all students."
"Institutions have done a tremendous job in an extremely short and unexpected time to move to a distance education model during this crisis," said Fernando Bleichmar, General Manager for Higher Education and Skills at Cengage. "But they clearly need additional funding and resources to adjust to the current environment and fulfill their mission of student success. Everyone in the education ecosystem needs to work together to support institutions and help them deliver an affordable, equitable and quality learning experience in an uncertain time ahead."
Webinar: 'The Great (Forced) Shift to Remote Learning'
Survey findings will be presented in a free webinar this Friday, April 24, at 2:00 pm ET, hosted by Inside Higher Ed. "The Great (Forced) Shift to Remote Learning: a Survey of Instructors and Campus Leaders" will feature a discussion with the survey's lead researcher Jeff Seaman, OLC's Jennifer Mathes, as well as Will Austin, president of Warren County Community College, and Inside Higher Ed Editor Doug Lederman. Click here for webinar details and registration.
Methodology
The results are based on responses from 826 U.S. higher education faculty and administrators collected during the period of April 6-19, 2020, representing 641 different institutions. The partners plan to field a follow-up pulse survey this summer to gauge shifts in priorities.

With classrooms closed due to social distancing efforts, Rouxbe has stepped in to ensure culinary education students are able to finish degrees while they shelter in place

VANCOUVER, B.C. (PRWEB) APRIL 22, 2020
Rouxbe, the world's leading online culinary school, announced today they have partnered with hundreds of high schools, community colleges, universities, and culinary schools to provide online learning tools for students currently enrolled in culinary studies in the midst of the coronavirus crisis.
As students are no longer able to learn within a traditional classroom environment, Rouxbe is offering the same level of education remotely through these partnerships. Students using the Rouxbe program have full access to: Culinary Foundations Levels 1 and 2, as well as their Advanced Courses on Plant-Based Foundations, Seafood Sustainability, and the James Beard Food Waste program, Waste Not! The cost for these programs are less than 10% of the charges normally assessed if one signed up individually, providing financial relief as well.
"Rouxbe has provided culinary education online for over 11 years, training those who move on to become professional chefs, caterers, restaurant owners as well as highly skilled home cooks," said Ken Rubin, Chief Culinary Officer at Rouxbe. "Our ability to step in and help students continue their education is an honor, as we know how difficult it can be to put lives on hold. With the ability to access Rouxbe any time, from any device, students are able to work around their kids' homeschool projects, taking care of loved ones or other jobs they may have."
The program is designed to be flexible depending on the needs of each institution, and the exact particulars will vary depending on what works best for teachers and students. Instructors can pick and choose units to assign based on their current curriculum and what may have been covered in previous lessons. Grading can be done using Rouxbe's auto graded quizzes, or though live grading - either by teachers within each individual school or by Rouxbe instructors.
"Rouxbe has helped make it possible for our students to bridge the gap between our traditional face to face education and our new remote learning environment; now our students can still reach their goals," said Chef Jack Kane, Program Chair of The Miami Culinary Institute at Miami Dade College. "The platform is incredibly flexible and easy to personalize based on what our students need to learn in order to finish their coursework."
Some of the organizations using Rouxbe for online learning include Big Sky Culinary (University of Montana), Ivy Tech, Monroe Community College, South Seattle Community College, and Scottsdale Community College.

With automated bidding, search term addition, keyword audits and budget optimization, etailz's AdManager provides advertisers with data-driven insights through AI.

SPOKANE VALLEY, WASH. (PRWEB) APRIL 22, 2020
etailz.com, Inc, the leading Amazon retailer that provides unparalleled marketing expertise and logistical support, today announced the launch of its new self-service Amazon cost per click advertising software, AdManager.
AdManager uses AI to automate the management of Amazon Sponsored Product Ads, which minimizes wasted ad spend, increases relevancy, and maximizes return on investment. For the past three years, etailz has utilized AdManager internally for their retail and agency partners' Amazon marketing. In that time, the software has managed over $5.8MM in ad spend, resulting in an average return on ad spend (ROAS) of 10:1, average advertising cost of sale (ACoS) of 10%, and average sales increase of 30%.
"We built AdManager to address the issues we, as retailers, were having. Through Seller Central alone, or competitive softwares, there are many limitations, including: access to historical data, streamlined reporting to inform data-driven decisions, and the ability to efficiently optimize campaigns at a mass scale and at the product level. AdManager makes that, and so much more, possible," said Kunal Chopra, CEO of etailz.
Powered by an expansive data model, the AdManager automates four major optimization processes: daily bid optimization, high-converting search term addition, negative keyword audit, and daily budget optimization.
Advertisers can tailor AdManager's bidding strategy to suit their strategic initiatives by either setting a target ACoS and using AdManager's tried and true optimizations, or create their own custom rulesets to guide the software's actions. Depending on their goals, advertisers can set single-metric rules, multiple-metric rules, or a combination of the two in a tiered structure. Guiding metrics can be any combination of ACoS, ROAS, clicks, CPC, ideal cost per action (CPA), ideal CPC, sales, and more.
AdManager also runs weekly audits for relevant, high-converting customer search terms, and then adds them to the list of bidding terms. Likewise, AdManager evaluates current keywords to identify and isolate low-performing terms, which minimizes wasted ad spend and increases campaign relevancy.
Additionally, AdManager runs hourly checks of the daily budget. If a campaign runs low on daily budget while meeting or exceeding the defined KPI's, AdManager can automatically increase the daily budget to prevent lost momentum.
One of etailz's beta clients, a supplement company named NutraBio, utilized AdManager to increase marketing sales by 43%, decrease spend by 16%, and decrease their average cost of sale by 5%.
"I spent a lot of time building custom excel sheets and employing best practices for my ad campaigns. With a significant time investment, I was able to achieve a 12% ACoS through Seller Central. With just three weeks of running AdManager my ACoS has dropped below 8%, and it took nowhere near as much effort. The level of support from etailz ensured that this was a pain-free process. Now I have opened up my budget for more aggressive ad spending and even greater returns," said Marc Bruggemann, Online Marketplace Manager of NutraBio.

Focus module gives market researchers new ways to stay close to consumers when in-person research is not an option.

NEW YORK (PRWEB) APRIL 22, 2020
CMNTY Corporation, global provider of online community platforms for market research professionals and brands, has expanded its platform with real-time video chat functionality. The new solution called Focus makes it easy to host video sessions as part of in-depth interviews, virtual focus groups and live brainstorming sessions.
CMNTY's mission has always been to help market researchers overcome challenges in their daily research tasks. With the current COVID-19 crisis and the inability to perform in-person research, CMNTY made it a priority to develop a real-time video solution. "The market research industry is in need of a response to overcome the health and economical crisis, with in-person research nearly being impossible." says Maxim Schram, founding CEO of CMNTY. "An online community is a great research tool, especially now people are at home en masse and ready to talk. Focus taps into people's natural tendency to connect with others through video, leading to even more useful insights."
Focus is an extension to CMNTY's qualitative research toolkit. It provides an easy way to conduct a live group chat session with a moderator, respondents and observers within a community platform. It helps record non-verbal communication such as body language and tone of voice on topics that are emotionally and spontaneously oriented.
"We are very much looking forward to introducing the new Focus solution to our clients.", says Fabian Bäumer, senior expert Insights & Innovation at Beautiful Lives. "The ability to take a deep dive with participants during an online conversation on the content they created allows us to enrich our ethnographic research. We can bring the best of (online) focus groups, i.e. depth and specific details, together with the assignments that we have participants carry out in the online community. And the fact that everything is in one ecosystem will also provide a lot of efficiency. In short, we are eager to work with it!"
CMNTY Platform combines a variety of online quant and qual data collection methods in one single, online environment. Companies can host forum discussions, co-creation sessions, polls, surveys, heat maps and private messaging and now also video group sessions. Focus fully integrates with the platform's recently developed central insights hub CMNTY Pulse, giving community managers access to the recorded video sessions, automated audio transcripts and sentiment for further analysis.

Whether they work as independent contractors or are part of a large public health or social services agency, with Olive, case managers can develop electronic care plans, monitor clients, and complete all case documentation without resorting to paper notes or returning to the office to file documents.

THOUSAND OAKS, CALIF. (PRWEB) APRIL 22, 2020
Olive App, LLC today announced the launch of Olive, a cloud-based case management system designed for public health and social services.

This lets case managers provide a higher level of service, while enabling them to care for more clients in the field.
The Olive care plan app makes it easy for case managers to:

Identify client needs based upon specific assessment criteria that's customizable per organizations needs (public health, social work, vocation services and more)

Evaluate outcomes and service effectiveness while maintaining compliance with intelligent reporting

Complete audit compliance with input validation, duplicate data entry prevention, audit logs, access control and more

Track follow-up visits and receive alerts via email and website notifications

"Olive is truly liberating to staff that spend too much time writing handwritten notes in the home and then traveling back to the office to document," said Sandra Copley, former Maternal Child and Adolescent Health director and Field Nursing manager for Santa Barbara County. "This technology is reflective of what we do in public health, enabling public health professionals to be more available and present for their patients as well as including the necessary components for reimbursement and for documenting vital data and outcome measures."
"Having worked in public health administration for over 25 years, I know that what nurses and social workers want to do more than anything is take care of their clients," said Nancy Leidelmeijer, creator and co-founder of Olive. "Our goal with Olive has always been to make the documentation part of their jobs easy and seamless, so the one-on-one time spent with clients is maximized."
"Having built several case management systems over the years has taught me a lot about what users want and need," added Todd Mueller, head of engineering and co-founder of Olive. "Case managers first and foremost need a simple, easy-to-use system that helps them be more efficient. While management needs the reassurance of a system that is compliant to prevent state chargebacks that result in lost funds for the agency. Finally, the internal IT team needs reassurance the system is secure, reliable and can perform under load. With Olive, we have addressed all three of these concerns and continue to improve the system daily based on user feedback and technology advancements.".

Verified electronic security leader now offers protection from potentially crippling losses

INDIANAPOLIS (PRWEB) APRIL 23, 2020
Sonitrol, the leader in verified electronic security, announces the launch of their newest data and network protection product solution, Sonitrol Network Protection powered by Cisco Meraki. With this release, Sonitrol now offers a fifth service to their customers—joining verified intrusion, access control, video surveillance, fire and network protection--giving the company a more robust ability to verify intrusion and security threats than just physical assets.
Sonitrol Network Protection keeps your network, devices and data safe from daily cyber-threats and attacks. The solution provides firewall protection, intrusion protection and prevention, ransomware protection, anti-phishing, malicious file scanning and more—protecting businesses from huge monetary and data losses. It is cloud-based and managed from a single dashboard GUI, making managing your network easy. This solution also provides robust business management tools: content/URL filtering, application-aware traffic control, guest WIFI access, analytics and heat mapping, and custom reporting options. The technology used always stays current with automatic firmware and security patches, and it works within a connected ecosystem, delivering Day-0 security.
The need for network security is in high demand for small to medium business owners. According to CSO Online, $170,000 is the average small business loss when a network has been breached. Ransomware hits are targeting businesses hard with phishing emails and malicious files which can all be prevented with network security. It's not if you get hacked, it's when you get hacked, and keep in mind, most businesses don't even know that their network has been breached until it's too late. Now Sonitrol provides a solution to prevent such potentially huge losses.
"Our clients already trust us to help protect their people and physical property, now we have a solution to also protect their digital assets," says Julie Beach, Sonitrol Vice President. "The risk of cyberattacks is increasing every day and can severely impact the operations of businesses. Sonitrol has an affordable solution that fits all our customers' needs."
Providing 100% cloud-managed IT, Sonitrol Network Protection can configure your network in minutes, allowing it to be managed from anywhere.

Cybereason was again one of the EDR leaders in Round II of the MITRE ATT&CK product tests.

BOSTON (PRWEB) APRIL 23, 2020
Cybereason today announced that its award-winning Cybereason Defense Platform completed Round II of the MITRE ATT&CK product evaluations. This latest round of tests demonstrated Cybereason's ability to successfully defend against the techniques and tactics frequently used by Russian-affiliated cybercrime group APT29. In these evaluations, Cybereason once again showcased how its market-leading visibility and actionable threat detection enables security analysts to stop attacks before material damage occurs.
MITRE developed and maintains the ATT&CK framework based on open source reporting of adversary tactics and techniques. ATT&CK is freely available, and is widely used by defenders in industry and government to find gaps in visibility, defensive tools, and processes as they evaluate and select options to improve their network defense.
Cybereason's results in the MITRE ATT&CK Round II evaluations indicate:
Superior Correlation: Cybereason delivered extremely high correlation efficacy out of the box. The ability to correlate data, unaided and in real-time, provides an immense advantage to defenders. Using correlated data to create a full attack story within moments of initial detection can mean the difference between stopping an attacker, and damage being done to an organization. This gives security analysts an intuitive understanding of the path an attacker takes, significantly shortening the time to respond and remediate.
Complete Visibility: The Cybereason Defense Platform provides superior visibility with detailed context for every incident. Analysts can view the entire process tree with a complete timeline of events for all malicious activity across every machine and every process. Cybereason enables security teams to thoroughly see and stop attacks, even against advanced threat actors.
Real-time Detection: Cybereason delivered immediate, contextualized, associated alerts automatically and consistently across all tactics, without analyst overload. Cybereason's Cross Machine Correlation Engine powers 'best in industry' correlation of malicious activity in an environment by intelligently connecting detections, enrichment, and telemetry across all tactics without requiring additional time and risk of inconsistency due to manual construction of the story. This empowers analysts to resolve incidents faster and more completely.
Full Incident Context: The Cybereason malicious operation (MalopTM) gives security teams the full context of an incident across all affected machines and automatically pinpoints techniques at each stage of the kill chain. Upon receiving a Malop, analysts can quickly remediate in a single click, reducing mean time to remediate.
"The ability to publicly test the Cybereason Defense Platform against real-life attack scenarios is a rare opportunity, and we pride ourselves on having built our platform from the ground up with real-life attack scenarios in mind. Cybereason built an endpoint platform that helps our customers future proof security operations by addressing today's sophisticated threats while simultaneously preventing emerging problems of tomorrow from happening. We look forward to working with the MITRE ATT&CK team again for the third round of evaluations later this fall," said Lior Div, Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder, Cybereason.

Fueled by the growth of sophisticated and targeted threats to mobile devices, Cybereason Mobile addresses one of the biggest risks facing companies today. Also launched was Cybereason Mobile MDR, a fully managed mobile threat defense offering designed to detect and prevent suspicious activity before damage occurs.

BOSTON (PRWEB) APRIL 23, 2020
Cybereason today announced the expansion of its award-winning Cyber Defense Platform with the introduction of Cybereason Mobile, a new cloud-based offering designed to help enterprises prevent, detect and respond to both mobile device and traditional endpoint risks by connecting disparate threats in a single and complete malicious operation (Malop).
Cybereason Mobile launches alongside the company's new Cybereason Mobile MDR, a fully managed mobile threat defense offering designed to detect and prevent suspicious activity before damage occurs. While leveraging Cybereason Mobile MDR, enterprises have access to a team of security analysts to monitor for advanced mobile threats 24x7x365 across Android and iOS devices for a more efficient process when discovering, triaging and mitigating incidents.
"Cybereason Defense Platform acknowledges the reality of today's most common ways of doing business. Protection from your mobile endpoints all in a single console made easy to deploy, configure, prevent, detect and respond," said Phil Hochmuth, Program VP, Enterprise Mobility, IDC.
"Today's expanding digital footprint makes it critical to have mobile device threat visibility, a massive blindspot within enterprises. The launch of Cybereason Mobile and our managed service is a cybersecurity industry game-changer. It automates the mobile device detection and prevention process and cross-correlates threats across all endpoints from workstations, servers, cloud and mobile. Cybereason is giving security analysts and security operations teams the industry's deepest visualized cloud services and the ability to stop targeted threats to their networks," said Lior Div, Chief Executive Officer and Co-founder, Cybereason.
Cybereason Mobile features include:
Built-for-mobile, autonomous protection
Cybereason Mobile provides a single, scalable, and lightweight sensor giving immediate insights, response actions, and on-device detection to prevent known and unknown zero-day threats from reaching the endpoint.
Cybereason Cross-Machine Correlation
By correlating all incidents through the Cybereason Defense Platform, security analysts can leverage the revolutionary cyberattack defense engine with machine-learning algorithms able to connect disparate malicious events.
Multi-Faceted Visibility at the Application, Network, Operating System (iOS and Android), Device Level
Cybereason Mobile not only provides visibility to all primary attack vectors of mobile endpoints, but can also prevent, detect, and remediate against them. Cybereason Mobile generates a baseline of normal vs. abnormal, potentially malicious, behaviors to uncover a breadth of use cases in real time.
Cross-platform compromise context across all phases of the attack lifecycle
Cybereason Mobile's nondeterministic detection approach, aligned with the MITRE ATT&CK lifecycle framework, enables security analysts to connect disparate attacker's activities, across traditional and mobile devices, into a single and complete malicious operation (Malop).
Cybereason Mobile MDR
The Cybereason Mobile MDR provides a fully managed mobile threat defense offering that security analysts/defenders use to prevent threats before damage is done. From real-time prevention, complete compromise investigation, to system configuration and policy management, Cybereason Mobile MDR provides 24x7 coverage.
Recent Accolades Regarding Cybereason
Cybereason recently gained wide recognition as the top-ranked current offering in the recently published "The Forrester Wave: Endpoint Detection & Response, Q1 2020." In addition, Cybereason received a strong rating in NSS Labs Inc.'s recent Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP) Test with a AAA rating in the Resistance to Evasion category by detecting and blocking 100 percent of the malware and exploits used during the test.
The Cybereason Defense Platform is used by more than 600 of the world's largest and best-known enterprises.

English language learners in China will develop and grow vocabulary with resources from WordBank

DURHAM, N.C. (PRWEB) APRIL 23, 2020
MetaMetrics announced today that it is partnering with Youdao, Inc., a leading intelligent learning company in China, to integrate its Lexile WordBank into China's leading online dictionary designed for children, Youdao Kids Dictionary app. Now, as a result of this global partnership, Chinese primary students learning English can develop and grow their vocabulary. Youdao Kids Dictionary is a popular online dictionary, providing Chinese and English language content and intelligent-learning services for primary school students.
Youdao CEO Feng Zhou said, "We are quite delighted to partner with Lexile WordBank. We always seek to provide the authoritative content for Chinese kids on their way of language learning. "
To build strong English language skills, it is necessary to develop a rich vocabulary. The Lexile WordBank includes more than 50,000 words from the top K-12 textbook programs, all published since 2011. The WordBank contains recent and relevant vocabulary, unlike other databases available today that were developed from out-of-date resources or texts intended for adults. The vocabulary in the WordBank spans the K-12 curriculum, including words from science, math, social studies and general vocabulary words, and is searchable by grade level and subject. It allows curriculum and assessment developers to transform vocabulary instruction by ensuring that their products and assessments contain the words students need to know when and where they encounter them.
"The learning experts at Youdao recognize that building a strong vocabulary is critical to becoming proficient in English," said Malbert Smith, CEO and co-founder of MetaMetrics. "We are proud to partner with them to include our WordBank in their new Youdao Kids Dictionary vocabulary app."
Using the Lexile WordBank, curriculum and assessment developers can identify where and when students will likely encounter words in their school reading and prioritize a subset of high-value words for a specific purpose. For example, using the Lexile WordBank, curriculum and assessment developers can answer questions, such as in what grade do students typically first encounter a specific word or what are the science vocabulary words a fourth-grade student should know.
For more information about the Lexile WordBank, visit https://metametricsinc.com/education-companies/products-and-services/lexile-vocabulary-service/.

TAMPA, FLA. (PRWEB) APRIL 24, 2020
Healthcare cyber security has become a growing concern, as health data is among the most targeted by cyber criminals. It is reported that the data breaches and phishing cost nearly $6 billion to the healthcare industry every year. The demand for the healthcare cyber security market has increased due to the increasing number of data breaches and cyber attacks in recent years.
Cyber Chasse leads the healthcare industry in best practices by offering advanced cyber security solutions to healthcare providers in the US. Anil Kumar Jayaprakash, Director of Cyber Chasse says, "The Majority of cyber attacks can take place through the exploitation of vulnerabilities in VPN systems. It is essential to keep the software updated and patch vulnerabilities in the VPN systems with the best practices".
As per a report, the healthcare cyber security market will exceed $20 billion by 2025. The increasing number of cyber-attacks in hospitals, pharmaceutical, and other healthcare organizations is likely to propel the entire industry in the coming years. Hackers are introducing unique malware, as a result of which hospitals are facing difficulties in securing important information.
Cyber Chasse expands its use of Splunk to secure the IT network of healthcare organizations. Ivin Kuriakose, CEO of Cyber Chasse said, "Healthcare cyber security is our primary focus and we know how to plan proactively to protect the digital assets of healthcare organizations. We created a plan that incorporates cyber security solutions like – HIPAA risk analysis, penetration testing, network access control, data breach audit, SIEM, vulnerability threat management, etc.".
Using Splunk Software, Cyber Chasse is helping healthcare organizations to gain insights into system performance, protect patient records, improve the up time of online services and deliver better access to the patient's information.

Grammar Rules and Review' Provides Supplemental College English Instruction With Built-in Tracking, Recyclable Seats, and No Access Codes

NEW YORK (PRWEB) APRIL 24, 2020
Long time ed-tech provider Merit Software introduced an innovative online learning tool for higher education institutions this week, 'Grammar Rules and Review.' The interactive, web-based English grammar guide offers an affordable way to provide incoming students with the English language support they need to catch up with their peers and succeed in college-level classes.
According to national education campaign Complete College America, more than one million students begin college in the US each year needing gateway support in math and English. Many of these students take remedial classes in college-level math and English that cost thousands of dollars and don't count towards a college degree. Research shows this disparity is greater for low-income students and within communities of color. States recently increasing in-class, supplemental support have doubled the percent of students completing remedial courses within one year, increasing their chance of graduation.
Merit Software's 'Grammar Rules and Review' provides colleges and universities with an alternative to costly traditional remedial courseware. The online learning tool delivers English grammar exercises covering ten essential skill areas. The program's tracking and progress monitoring technology allows faculty and staff to view student scores and progress throughout the program. Seats are purchased by the department, not the students. As a result, students are not forced to buy expensive and controversial access codes.
"The evidence of greater effectiveness of in-class, supplemental instruction compared to traditional remediation is growing. As colleges everywhere have been thrust into a full-scale online learning experiment due to Covid-19, our experience is that online learning works best when it is a supplement to instruction," said Ben Weintraub, Product Manager, Merit Software. "Grammar Rules and Review was designed with flexibility in mind, allowing it to be used as a corequisite, teaching tool, or reference guide by institutions and instructors to support student success and reduce the cost of earning a college degree. Plus, students hate buying access codes for resources they feel their school should be supplying."
'Grammar Rules and Review' is designed to assist college and university, high school, and workplace education students, as well as intermediate and advanced English language learners. Colleges and universities utilizing the tool receive reusable student seats, flexible seating tools that accommodate multiple sections, custom class durations, and drop/add functionality. To utilize the online learning tool, students access a login provided by the institution.

Speakeasy AI delivers next generation conversational AI with powerful controls and customization

OLD GREENWICH, CONN. (PRWEB) APRIL 24, 2020
Speakeasy AI today announced the release and general availability of its next generation conversational voice bot, Sky. This latest release works seamlessly within the Speakeasy AI solution, including Amplify customer journey reporting and Nerv, our custom voice neural net. Speakeasy AI can now allow for management of complete conversational AI experiences within Sky while maintaining BYOB (bring your own bot) capabilities within voice channels. This means customers will have the option to deploy Speakeasy AI with or without an existing digital chatbot(s). Sky's conversation management also allows for actions that call upon those other AI investments, empowering AI orchestration with "bots talking to other bots" to provide the right answer, experience and action for the customer. Sky can manage conversations across the breadth of self-service customer journeys and engagements, all while enabling the quickest and most robust update cycle in voice automation.
Sky empowers Speakeasy AI users to tailor conversation flows that leverage context wrappers to ensure multiple intents can be recognized during a customer conversation. This means appropriate actions can be initiated across varied contexts in play. While taking a hotel reservation the user might ask about parking fees; Sky can provide an answer and then resume the reservation. Sky makes it easy to gather information to make bookings and complete processes. Sky's entity extraction (for number variables and proper nouns) component utilizes Speakeasy AI's patent-pending speech-to-intent technology that doesn't rely on transcription alone. This means increased accuracy related to specific business related vocabulary, and a full end to end solution.
Sky has been developed to provide advanced bot functionality that can be easily setup and maintained without custom development. Open API's are available to easily connect to multiple back ends with the help of our conversation flow designer. The conversation flow designer takes a drag and drop studio pallet approach to allow business users to easily craft custom voice flows. Sky makes conversational design intuitive and directly connected to business goals and desired outcomes. Sky was built aligned with industry standards for conversational AI design to allow for easy use and transition for designers who are familiar with other tools.
"We set out to create a conversational AI manager that gives real power and control to users around industry standards like entities and slots," said CTO, Moshe Villaizan, "but Sky circumvents traditional design issues while enabling true customization and control. The full Speakeasy AI solution provides a powerful foundation of trust between AI and the business it serves."
"Providing a conversational management tool that is agile, powerful and understandable is key to achieving conversational AI that works for businesses and customers," said CEO, Frank Schneider, "Moshe and our team have created a full solution that will define conversational AI practices moving forward and most importantly, serve our customers and their customers' needs."
Sky will be available to customers during Active Listening phase as well as with the full delivery of the Speakeasy AI solution.

New survey from Altman Vilandrie & Company shows impact of COVID-19 work restrictions on telecom tools and infrastructure during work from home boom. 74% of at-home workers now use video conferencing more, and 43% report home internet slowdowns. Home internet and mobile providers have the opportunity to cater to at-home workers an.d invest in networks as more say they will use tech at home after COVID-19

BOSTON (PRWEB) APRIL 24, 2020
With more Americans working from home than ever before due to COVID-19, workers are becoming more reliant on home internet, with three in four at-home workers using more video conferencing, according to a new survey released today by Altman Vilandrie & Company. The survey, conducted in April, reveals opportunities and challenges for home internet and mobile service providers as the social distancing and business restrictions continue.
Approximately 318 million Americans live in states with business closures or restrictions, forcing workers and employers to change Work From Home (WFH) policies and capabilities on the fly. The biggest change has come in video conferencing: the survey reveals that 74% of remote workers now more frequently use conferencing software like Zoom and Skype. This trend, and surges in streaming video usage, has put more strain on home internet services, with 43% of at-home workers reporting more slowdowns since the beginning of the COVID-19 stay-at-home measures. To a lesser degree, mobile networks are also strained as some consumers still use mobile internet at home (24% report slowdowns).
"While clearly secondary to public health concerns, the unprecedented mass migration from the traditional office to the home has its challenges," said Altman Vilandrie & Company Principal Mat Grudzien. "But the fixed and mobile internet structure has held up pretty well and providers now have the opportunity to rethink their strategies and create upside opportunities in the long run."
Grudzien noted that while reports of outages were up, it wasn't registering as a major concern: only 10% at-home workers named "slow or unreliable internet" as the top WFH pain point, an equal percentage to those concerned over a lack of dedicated home office space. The top WFH pain point was family/childcare distractions (32%), driven in large part by widespread school closures.
While COVID-19 is changing how people use their home internet and pushing them to evaluate their internet plans, a great deal of uncertainty remains: 37% of surveyed respondents didn't yet know if they want to keep or change their existing plan as a result of COVID-19. Of the remaining population that had an opinion, nearly one-third were planning to change their plan – a high amount for a relatively stable industry. However, not all this switching will have a negative impact on telecom operators, as only 31% of that group is considering spending less or cancelling their service.
"With special deals and improvements to speed and reliability, providers can tap into a growing reliance on connectivity," said Altman Vilandrie & Company Principal Matt Del Percio. "If the work restrictions and school closures continue into the fall, more consumers may feel the need to adapt and upgrade their home internet or mobile services."
Moving forward, the survey findings indicate work trends from COVID-19 will solidify even after the social distancing and work restrictions are lifted. The survey shows that 40% believe they will use video conferencing post-COVID-19 more than they did pre-COVID-19, with 27% expressing a similar belief in using online collaboration tools like SharePoint. Not one respondent said they would use those technologies less often in the future. The responses were more mixed for working from home after the work restrictions are lifted, with 33% saying they will work remotely more post-COVID-19 than they did pre-COVID-19, and 16% predicting they will do it less often.
"There's a lot of evidence that some of these WFH habits created by social distancing will have real stickiness," said Grudzien. "Telecom operators should first prioritize investment in their network and digital channels to make sure they can support this shift, but there is a long-term opportunity here to be more creative in how they cater to this new class of at-home workers. Concepts like 'no touch' installation and WFH bundling of services and software applications are now in play in whatever the 'new normal' looks like after COVID-19."
The survey, led by Grudzien and Del Percio, polled 803 U.S. consumers from April 4-6, 2020. For more charts and data, as well as other TMT survey analysis, please click here.

Mazik Global supports Maryland's CRISP and Maryland Department of Health with test-scheduling app that simplifies and expands capacity for drive-up COVID-19 testing at field clinics, helping ease the burden on the local healthcare system

BALTIMORE (PRWEB) APRIL 25, 2020
Chicago-area software company Mazik Global has partnered with Microsoft, CRISP (Chesapeake Regional Information System for our Patients) and the Maryland Department of Health (MDH) to launch the MazikCare COVID-19 Patient Scheduling App (https://bit.ly/2XRtkOY) in Maryland and in Washington, D.C. on April 20 in response to the pandemic.
With healthcare providers in Maryland increasingly overwhelmed with patients in need of testing, a need to expand testing to remote sites became necessary. After Maryland Governor Larry Hogan's decision to convert Vehicle Emissions Inspection Program (VEIP) sites for drive-up COVID-19 testing, the teams still needed a way to order tests, coordinate with providers, and schedule appointments. So CRISP and the State of Maryland turned to Microsoft and Mazik Global for a software solution.
"Mazik and Microsoft partnered with CRISP to develop a solution under the state's aggressive timeline that will continue to scale to meet the COVID-19 testing needs of Maryland residents," said Michael Berger, CRISP Chief Information Officer. "The solution is elegant for users and based on a powerful cloud infrastructure. We could accommodate up to 100,000 appointments a week now if necessary."
The app, powered by Microsoft Dynamics 365, allows provider-referred patients to schedule a test slot in about three clicks. Patients then get appointment reminders and wait-time updates via text and receive a unique QR code for touch-free check-in. They can alternatively make an appointment through a call center, whose system seamlessly connects with the rest of the platform through CRM.
For organizers and facilitators, the app syncs with resources (e.g., number of test kits available) in real time to ensure a supply and demand match for open testing slots. Facilitators can use the app on any mobile device to track appointments, perform fast check-ins, and centralize patient data across test locations.
"Due to the power of the MazikCare, the Dynamics 365 Platform, and the unparalleled skill of our passionate team, we were able to design, configure, test, and produce the first iteration of this solution in days," said John Bowdler, Mazik Global VP of Services. "I'm very proud of our team's dedication to solutions that combat this global crisis."
The Patient Scheduling App is now one of five tech-based solutions Mazik Global has developed to ease the burden on healthcare systems and care teams. The test scheduling app, along with Mazik's other solutions, are also capable of connecting to patient electronic health records (EMR/EHR).
