"First Impressions testing is a truly significant service. ECL is to be commended for offering this unique service that will save companies both time and money in bringing truly effective SKDs to market." - Will Strauss, President, Forward Concepts
"BOPS, Inc. had several years experience with ECL starting first with benchmarking but soon expanding our relationship to take advantage of a variety of their other services as we realized the incredible value and their depth of understanding of the issues facing a microprocessor company."
"Among other things they helped us dramatically improve the quality of our Software Development Kit through thier evalualtion under the "ECL First Impressions Program" which provided an initial but thorough analysis of the SDK. We then expanded that effort into an "ECL Deep Impressions" project. Over the course of 7 months ECL provided us with a complete and thorough analysis of our entire Integrated Design Environment. ECL Deep Impressions examined in detail the features, relative quality, stability. and out-of-box experience of our tools. That work ultimately had a tremendous positive impact on our feature set, priorities, and roadmap, as we were able to depend on ECL as a virtual alpha and beta customer and marketing partner."
"Their work, their professionalism, their understanding of our end customers' expectations, and their intimate understanding of all aspects of the microprocessor business provided us with an invaluable partner both from a technical and marketing perspective. In fact, without exaggeration, the best dollars we ever spent, either marketing or engineering, were with ECL." - Mark Bowles, Former President, BOPS, Inc, now Vice President, Discrete Time, Inc.
"ECL was incredibly thorough. I really liked the mix of backgrounds and disciplines of the engineers that they put on the project to get a wide spectrum analysis. It was great - guys that new DSP, guys that knew software, and even people that were novices helped give us a better picture of user patterns. . Obviously it [the ECL First Impressions Report] was thorough and gave some far-reaching suggestions ... definately some of the key areas for improvement really helped endorse our own views of what needed to be prioritized. This was the ammunition to help sell an improvement plan internally at Improv Systems. It was also powerful in terms of understanding what to go tout to customers ... there were things that we were better at than the competition, and ECL helped bring that out." - David Hoff, Manager, ARC Internatlonal
