The new products added to AvePoint's FedRAMP authorisation include AvePoint tyGraph, which offers advanced workforce analytics on employee engagement and assists in the adoption and ROI of Microsoft 365. MaivenPoint Examena, a platform that facilitates safe, AI-enabled examinations, and MaivenPoint Curricula, developed to enhance the modern learning experience for ongoing education, were also added.
