Welcome to our new, ConstructConnect help system, your gateway to all things related to our products including User Guides, Release Notes, Frequently Asked Questions, Downloads, Training Materials, Events and more. We realized that having our product documentation in several disconnected systems was confusing and awkward and wanted to provide a better user experience for you, our loyal customers and for our potential new customers.

Let’s take a look at several of the key features of the new site!

A Sleek New Toolbar for Quick Navigation

At the top of the help site, you’ll notice a new toolbar. This handy feature lets you jump straight to important sections like:

  • Frequently Asked Questions
  • Release Notes for the latest updates
  • Training Videos for learning tips and tricks

Think of the toolbar as a shortcut to the sections you’ll use most often. It’s all about saving you clicks and time.

A Fresh Landing Page for Easy Browsing

When you visit the site, you'll land on a shiny new homepage. From here, you can choose the specific product you need help with. Plus, there are three main options that span all products:

  • Latest Product News and Releases
  • Frequently Asked Questions
  • Accounts and Licenses

The best part? The search bar on the landing page lets you search across all product categories. If you're unsure where to start, this feature will point you in the right direction.

A Better User Experience

Smart Search and Organized Content

The search functionality has been upgraded to make finding what you need even simpler. Here’s how it works:

  • If you’re viewing a specific section or category, searches will only show results from that area.
  • Need to broaden your search? Just click the “ConstructConnect Help” button in the top left to search the entire site.

This design makes narrowing down or expanding your results as easy as a single click.
