New Release - WaterGEMS, WaterCAD, HAMMER CONNECT Edition

We're happy to announce the CONNECT Edition release of our water distribution modeling products. There are a lot of new features we think you'll find useful. Some of these include:

• Access tools quickly through a modernized ribbon-based user interface with built-in search to find commands more easily, consistent with MicroStation CONNECT Edition and Microsoft products.
  
  
• Create and manage customized reports that automatically combine graphs, data tables, color-coded and annotated plan views, and more into a single report. 
  
  
• Run historical simulations using actual operation of pump and valve controls based on SCADA system records.
  
  
• Additional capability to model shut downs and power outages in SCADAConnect Simulator.
  
  
• Create AVI videos of your model runs.
  
  
• Include service laterals, for automatic customer load assignment during hydraulic analysis.
  
  
• Collaborate on water system design and operation as a team using Bentley CONNECT Cloud Services.

We will be presenting a "What's new" webinar during the week of November 7, 2016. Go to the link below to sign up for the webinar.
