Zuken customers share their opinions on how they've applied Zuken innovation and are realizing success in their own organizations:

"Zuken's expertise in integrating design tools as a unified system enables us to apply technology and innovation that will improve our flexibility. Now we will be able to further increase the speed and efficiency of our design using one system, connecting multiple sites and design teams."
Juergen Barfuss, Director of Purchasing Siemens Automation and Drives Germany

"With conventional technology we would simply not be able to route such a complex board. EMC issues mean that we have to route manually and the Zuken tool is not only fast and powerful but it's also remarkably easy to learn to use, so saves a great deal of training time. We started off with one seat and now have seven; that's a clear demonstration of the confidence we have in Zuken."
John Rich Circuit Assembly Manager Hewlett-Packard, UK

"The Zuken Signal Integrity tools have given us greater confidence in error free high speed board design. There were no problems at all in integrating the tools into our design flow. Now we are looking forward to developing further the virtual prototyping stage within our design methodology."
Andrew Glascott-Jones Renishaw plc, UK

"When Thomson Consumer Electronics required a business and technology partner that would help it work the business issues out of the process as well as deliver the tools and technology it needed, Zuken was there. We recently introduced the Cable Modem 1, which we designed using Zuken's VISULA PCB design system. It was one of the shortest time-to-market that we have ever had. We went from design to pre-production within 8 months."

"It's always a time consuming task, but [Zuken's] Board Designer has several useful macros for speeding up and automating the [design-] process wherever possible."
Nick Jarmany Managing Director Densitron Computers, UK

"Easy to learn and use, CADSTAR does not demand that the user is a specialist, so a greater number of users can make use of it with Zuken's support. This gives engineers and technicians much greater autonomy. It is the most versatile of all the tools we tested and, as a large number of subcontractors use CADSTAR the product provides greater flexibility for sharing work with them."
Roselin Lionti Ingenieur Electronique Systems Department, French Atomic Research Commission, France

"You reach a point where 'good enough' is no longer acceptable and investment in increased software and hardware becomes self-justifying. Raymarine's main driver behind the purchase of CADSTAR was ultimately reduced time to market through fewer design iterations. CADSTAR delivers these benefits via its intuitive user interface and improved integration with both 3D mechanical CAD systems and thermal analysis software tools."

Nigel Wright Product Design Manager Raymarine, UK

"After a thorough review of the options, it became clear that Zuken not only offered the lowest cost to change, but they demonstrated scalable solutions that could be adapted to meet the differing needs of our various companies. Zuken's solutions are industry leading technology, and we are able to provide the commercial flexibility that we need as we acquire companies and further consolidate our engineering environments to maximize productivity."
