Dear Sir or Madam,
"Order is half of life" – This German aphorism describes pretty accurately the daily routine of many engineers, who quite often need more than half their workday to find the right component. Why it's a fallacy to believe, a simple classification system could solve this problem and why it's always better to use Intelligent Finding than searching, you can learn here.
Today, every self-respecting business has its own website. But with the rising usage of mobile internet, this is no longer enough. According to recent surveys, people are now using predominantly mobile devices like smartphones or tablets to surf the net. Here you can learn more about why in the future companies won't be able to avoid getting their own app.
Enjoy!
Your CADENAS Team

Are your customers king yet? |
 |
For many component manufacturers, the premise "the customer is king" is on the top of the list because they already provide them with 3D CAD models of their components as downloads through an Electronic Product Catalog. But to provide a comprehensive customer service and to support engineers and purchasing agents in the most optimal way possible, it's necessary to supply them not only with pure geometrics but also with additional component information and meta data.
