Lucernex Vice President of Product Management and Retail industry veteran Louise Mailloux-McBurnett talks about the buzz at this years ICSC Recon.
I recently attended the ICSC ReCON in Las Vegas. It was a wonderful opportunity to mingle with current and prospective clients as well as leaders in the real estate world. As Vice President of Product Management for Lucernex, I naturally have my ear to the ground regarding technology and tech issues and how they affect retail.
It was an exciting event this year with attendance much stronger than in recent years.

Lucernex expert and EVP Ken Brown’s (see Ken’s management summary here) provides a case for why integrated IWMS solutions are more beneficial than stand-alone real estate solutions or “Franken Products”.
When considering the purchase of real estate software point solutions such as Lease Administration, Project Management, Purchase Management, CMMS and Space Planning/CAFM it is helpful to understand the differences, benefits and challenges of a-la-carte options vs. an integrated suite of products. Individual software solutions are just that – products that are sold individually and have little to no compatibility with other product offerings. Product suites like an Integrated Workplace Management System (IWMS) are offered as an integrated group of solutions and give the user benefits such as flexibility, ease of use, common overhead, better support for system architectures and platforms. Vendors, like Lucernex Technologies, who build their systems from the ground up using one architecture, one database, one codebase and one common interface eliminate many of the problems encountered with so-called “best of breed” solutions. This blog will illustrate specific examples of why an integrated product suite such as IWMS is best:

Replace Accruent SLM, IWMS, SLIM, REM with Lx Retail
Accruent’s Store Lifecycle Management (SLM) product sold to dozens of retailer and corporate users since 2004 came about due to a license sold to Accruent by Lucernex in 2003 allowing Accruent to market the Lucernex IWMS solution under the Accruent name. The core of the Accruent solution remains, in large part, the 3.81 version of Lx Retail. Lucernex has since updated the location performance management software and is now at version 9.0 having made vast improvements in the capability. The former creator of SLIM, Ken Brown, is now in charge of Lucernex product design and development after selling the SLIM product and his company, National Facilities Group, to Accruent in 2003. As a result Lucernex can provide the smoothest transition for current Accruent clients.
No first year software cost!!
To make this easy to budget, Lucernex will convert any Accruent client to Lx Retail and charge no first year fee for the software. In addition, as a conversion from Accruent is really more of a simple upgrade into the newer version of Lucernex, our professional services team will charge a simple cost plus 20% for the project.
No one can convert you from Accruent faster, cheaper or more accurately than Lucernex!
Please use our Product Information page if you are interested in talking to an Lucernex representative about our Accruent upgrade.
