Impact tools are used by many of the meeting attendees. During this event, producers can work with Impact subject matter experts to fine tune their skills and to learn more about new product improvements that will help them be more effective with their clients.

The Impact user group meetings are unique in the software industry. Users of Impact tools have a real voice in the enhancements that are made to the system and actually vote for the changes that are engineered into the software platform.

The “hot” topic of the meeting this fall was the Roth Conversion reports. The addition of three new reporting modules to the Qualified Plan Distribution Analysis (QPDA) software represents the delivery of powerful new analytic tools for the financial service professional.
