AMS Selection in 2026: What’s Changed, What Still Matters, and What to Do Now

If you’re looking at an AMS search in 2026, you may already feel the familiar weight of remembering how difficult the last one was for you.

The long requirements spreadsheets.
The demo overload.
Too many vendors.
Tons of jargon.
Customizations that seemed reasonable at the time, but quietly created years of friction.

That experience still matters. But you’ll be happy to know things have changed for the better.

This webinar will show you what has positively shifted in AMS selection (and what hasn’t) so you can approach your next decision with clarity instead of dread.

Yes, choosing an AMS is still a serious, high-stakes decision, but the process around it has evolved in meaningful ways.

Market dynamics have shifted.
Platforms have matured.
Peer transparency is higher.
Modern evaluation tools now make it possible to reduce risk, compress timelines, and avoid many of the traps associations used to fall into.

Most importantly, we’ll focus on what to do now.

How to start preparing for a 2026 AMS search in a way that’s grounded, practical, and far less overwhelming than it used to be. Looking forward to seeing you there.
