User reviews

Engineer on hand

No more waiting for engineering availability. Sizing members yourself and moving on with your design. Doesn't get much better than that.

Like the description said ...

... No more guessing. I'm a designer and I've had a few charts which were limited in usefulness. I sat down with a engineer and we looked at the recommendations for a few test cases. The app works. Looking forward to using this app for both speed and accuracy.
