The ONLY Property and Facilities Management Software Exhibition in the UK in 2008

07 October 2008

With a notable absence in the property and facilities management industry of a dedicated exhibition focusing on software solutions for Occupiers, Investors, Block Managers, Managing Agents and Facilities Managers, Qube Global Software are pleased to announce the launch of their Open Doors exhibition. This will be held at Qube Global Software new and purpose built offices at 9 King Street in Central London on the 4th and 5th November 2008.

The aim is to offer access to three leading property and facilities management software solutions under one roof as well as offering the opportunity for visitors to discuss any element of managing their property and facilities with Qube Global Software’s highly experienced staff. Experts will be on hand to provide demonstrations to groups every hour on the hour, or if preferred, one-to-one demonstrations of Qube, Planet and Horizon will be available.

A panel discussion will take place at 12 noon on both days. This will focus on Qube Global Software’s promise to provide ‘Software that works like you do’. Industry experts will open this discussion with what this phrase means to attendees as experts in their field and what is expected from Horizon, Planet and Qube. How can Qube Global Software’s solutions meet the needs of the market and assist users in their day-to-day challenges?

Open Doors will show attendees how to tackle any issues involved in managing their property and facilities, two of these issues have been identified in Realcomm’s survey on the top ten issues facing Real Estate IT in 2008. Namely Business Intelligence, Document Management and Global Expansion through the use of the most up-to-date tools available
