"Networking with other Plex Customers and Rockwell employees was definitely huge. Making very important connections with users and employees of Rockwell and Plex to better understand our industry and what Plex and Rockwell can do to help us get the most out of the system was very critical."

"There is no substitution for in-person networking. Video conferencing has come a long way, but the connections made face to face in a shared experience are irreplaceable."
