TurningPoint, the Industry-leading PowerPoint-based Audience Response Tool, Is Featured at International PowerPoint User Conference

TurningPoint 2006, a 100 percent natively integrated PowerPoint-based audience response solution www.turningtechnologies.com, was a featured product at the recent PowerPoint Live conference in San Diego. Not only was the product demonstrated, TurningPoint was used as it was designed to: gather information throughout the conference sessions from the audiences.

TurningPoint is the only audience response software with 100% native integration into Microsoft PowerPoint. Its easy-to-use, real-time response and feedback system means consultants and strategists can uncover candid anonymous answers during presentations and planning meetings, thus enabling the consultant or manager to focus on the aggregate opinion vs. the opinion that "gets the most air time."

Todd Dunn, a member of the Presentations Council (one of the councils sponsored by the International Communications Industries Association, Inc.), used TurningPoint to demonstrate how users could generate ultimate presentation impact. Following the presentation, he stated, "The participants in the audience who had never seen TurningPoint simply answered, 'Wow.' TurningPoint received a great response. It really opened their eyes to the advantages of using an audience response system because they saw how it could be used for entertainment as well as gathering solid data throughout a presentation."

TurningPoint helps managers easily aggregate insightful information about the challenges of a project -- analyze, adjust and implement the information quickly, thus increasing project success.

"Because it is so easy to use, I can see dozens of applications," said Mary Waldera, a Presentations Designer of MCW and Associates who was asked to try TurningPoint. "After using other audience response systems for over two years, I know what a challenge some of these packages can be to work with. I was amazed and floored at how easy and user-friendly TurningPoint was. Without having ever used the product, in a matter of minutes I had created half a dozen slides. Additionally, the keypads used to select your response -- which traditionally are heavy and bulky -- are compact, light-weight small devices. The receiver was awesome, no antennas, no power needed. You just plug it into your USB port. TurningPoint changes everything."

Turning Technologies boasts an extremely flexible pricing model. Users can configure systems of any size to meet specific budget requirements. Depending on the market and the options selected, complete systems ready to collect data from an audience of 32 participants range from $1,500 to $3,500.
