Featured: Tech with Heart Hub to Replace Heart2Heart in July

Consolidating platforms to help you connect 
 

The Tech with Heart client hub has quickly become the go-to place for our product updates, client discussions, and ongoing training sessions. By the end of June, we will replace your Heart2Heart widget and access as we have this more consolidated approach.

In Tech with Heart, you can find:

    • A new client resources page to access everything you need (access via home page and More)  
    • A forum to ask your peers questions, ask questions of Solver SMEs, and a place to provide encouragement or a smile to others in our Businessolver community (go to Community > Discussions) 
    • Monthly training, product updates, and client roundtables to keep you connected to your technology
    • A link to Pitch! where you can submit product/feature enhancement ideas 

Trainingsolver courses will be provided via SSO through Benefitsolver in a great new training format.
