“I am really excited about the features you presented to us today in Version 8.0 of IPS. I have picked this program apart to see what we can use to save time and energy and what you have shown us today was mind blowing. I had used Ascend in my previous employment and I feel that UBERbase IPS Version 8.0 is mush more user friendly.”
