The platform provides two levels of content for the users depending on whether or not

they are registered data providers:

• Visitor content: This perspective caters to non-data provider users who require access to anonymized benchmarking data. Users within this view can access benchmarking data without requiring registration on the platform. Notable users within this category include financial institutions
• Client content: Designed for data providers, this view grants users access to comprehensive benchmarking and monitoring services. Users in this view must be registered data providers to utilize these detailed benchmarking and monitoring services A prime example of users within this category is building owners. Building owners can create an eQuad account and then seamlessly transfer their buildings and projects from EN-TRACK to eQuad. They can then be processed for {"for" or "by"?} financing and investment funds, property managers and financial institutions. These can then transfer their investment performance data back to EN-TRACK.
