, a global provider of cloud-based business management software and services, today announced the recipients of the 22nd Annual AvidCX Awards. This prestigious honor, historically presented by Avid Ratings and now part of ECI, recognizes top-performing builders for delivering outstanding customer experiences, with winners selected in both the United States and Canada.

Each year, the AvidCX awards recognize homebuilders with the highest customer experience scores, based on survey results from major public builders, leading private firms, and custom and small-volume builders. This year, 472 qualifying builders participated in the program, which analyzed homebuyer data on satisfaction, referrals, and key experience metrics from January to December 2024.

Using its proprietary AvidCX™ platform to analyze every homebuyer survey and calculate overall scores, the award recognizes builders who rank within or above the top 25^th percentile of their peers.

“The AvidCX Awards serve as a trusted benchmark for customer service. We are so excited to honor this year’s deserved winners, who have adapted to changing market demands with determined resilience and earned this recognition as a result,� shared Aaron Everson, Business Unit Leader, ECI Software Solutions. “These homebuilders and professionals have shown they consistently go above and beyond to serve their customers.�
