Here
is what some of our customers are saying about
using Photopia:
“I
have purchased and learned software for the past
10 years and
I have never
had the quality of tech support I received from
Mark (Jongewaard).” -
Ken Osborn, Dir. of Engineering, PMC Lighting
"I've
been a fan of Photopia for several years. It's
provides me with useful results within minutes
which allows me to look at many design iterations
in a short amount of time. I find it
invaluable for refractors which are nearly
impossible to
prototype."
"We've
used Photopia for several years and believe it
has been the second most important purchase made
for product development, second only to to the
purchase of an automated punch press."
"We
are very happy with the accuracy of Photopia. We
have our own goniometer and have made many comparisons
between the predicted and measured results. We
have found Photopia to be so accurate that whenever
we have seen a difference between the measured
and predicted performance, our measurements have
turned out to be wrong."
