New Footprints Carbon Savings Pod and Analytics Engine released

Footprints Carbon Savings Calculator for Adobe Connect Pro

With the New Year starting and many companies looking to implement web conferencing and eLearning to reduce their costs as well as the environmental impact of their operations, we're proud to announce the new version of Footprints, the Carbon Savings Calculator pod for Adobe Connect Pro.

Footprints calculates the Carbon and the Financial savings for every meeting you run in ACP and tracks the results for your entire organization with a sophisticated back-end analytics engine.

You can track the savings silently or display the impact to your attendees so they can see what your organization is doing to protect the environment. The tool shows attendees the Carbon and Financial impact of their participation as well as the distance saved, plus they also get to see the impact for the entire meeting and the total impact your oganization has had on the environment for the entire year.
