"Target 3001 is a great piece of software. I have no problems with it. I would like to take this opportunity to say thanks to all the Target 3001 team for all their hard work in producing such a complex, but, so easy to use CAD package. It is precise and so well engineered!"

Dear Harald and Markus

Just to say we are very grateful for all your support with this project especially as we are so inexperienced. It was much more than we expected. If you have any potential customers who would like a reference site, please ask them to contact me, and I will be happy to recommend Target 3001 to them.


Kind Regards

Steve Benson

Wow, you are great. Thank you for your help and patience.
... I love working with Target. I tried several different applications, free (eg: KiCad and many others), demo (Eagle), and commercial (I bought AutoTrax DEX as well as yours) and by far, I like Target the best. Your support is outstanding and the application is very stable and is well written and implemented.

One more time, I’d like to say thanks. I just got PCB’s back from PCB-Pool from my second project in Target 3000! and I couldn’t be happier. The boards are great and matched exactly what I laid out in Target. I continue to be more pleased with Target the more I do with it.

This is fantastic software. I am currently using Target 3001 to complete the board layout of a transceiver for my Capstone class at school. It is very easy to learn and use. Keep up the good work!

Hello there,

this is just a short email to say how impressed I have been with Target 3001. I have just joined the family business which has been established for over 30 years (www.winterandsmith.co.uk) and have been accustomed to using software such as Protel and Orcad, whilst working for larger organisations.

For a small company the thought of having to pay a few thousand euros for a piece of software is out of the question. I have now tried target 3001 and found it better than both Protel and Orcad, for a fraction of the price.

Well done and keep up the good work

First, I wish to say that the more I use your package, the more I like it. It is far and away the most user-friendly package with such power that I have used. Most of the other packages show their heritage of being Unix ports and do not comply with the Windows interface standards, making them extremely difficult and awkward to use.

Target 3001! on the other hand is exceptionally easy to use. It is obvious that the developers have actually used it for making their own software. Thank you for creating such a wonderful package!

Hello, good day,

I have received the first of my pcb's from Shannon, and I would like to record the excellent results from using Target.

I investigated it using the free download from the internet, and then bought TARGET light. I was amazed by the large range of features, and found that I could work my way into the programmes, although I had no experience of PCB layout.

Because I was not familiar with any of the conventions of the subject, I feel that some introduction at a basic level would be helpful, but the Basics Chapter in the manual lists definitions and there is a tour on the disk. I was able to produce my first pcb for production three days after starting the programme. The second PCB followed , and I made a mistake in allocating layers. Harald Friedrich telephoned and e-mailed to assist without my requesting this, most helpful.

I have introduced TARGET to my local technical college and I think it would be very valuable, also amazing value for money

... Excellent product, very easy to use, keep up the good work.

Set up and working. Great new ways to do things in sim and pcb.

Best regards.

Good morning,

at the moment I use Target 3001! Light for hobby. I appreciate Target 3001! because I find it an easy-to-be-used program and in the same time quite powerful, with many libraries, and because of its quality-cost ratio, which makes it suitable also for students and people designing circuits just for hobby. Last but not least, because of ready on-line support. Well done.

Dear Mr. Friedrich,

we are pleased to confirm that we are most satisfied with the co-operation with your company.

Not only is the turnover with your PCB layout software TARGET 3001! over the past 16 months very pleasing, but also the fact that there have been no problems whatsoever in the past. Your overall service and especially your delivery service are second to none. Moreover, the personal contact with you and your employees is always friendly, competent and reliable at all times.

We are firmly convinced that TARGET 3001! will also be successful in English speaking countries. With a clear conscience we are able to recommend you as a professional partner. We look forward to a continued close co-operation.

Yours sincerely,

Manfred Mutzbauer Product Manager Software and Consoles

...I am still very pleased with my TARGET 3001! design station. A few months ago I started exploring the wonderful world of Microchip MCU's (16F84). And I was very happy to see that this component (and lots more) was supported. I also am pleased with the new CONRAD library. In Holland we have a store near the german border. So it's now very easy to order my components there and create the PCB's with your software.

...After evaluating TARGET for a couple of weeks, I found TARGET to be an excellent program both in terms of features and price. TARGET caught my attention because of it's power, features, ease of use, code size and price. ...

Having run the TARGET software, in general I found it reasonably straightforward.

Hello Mr Friedrich,

you should know that I feel your product should make tremendous inroads in the North American market. It is exceptionally powerful, easy to use and clear, and (phenomenally) perfectly stable. It has not even approached a crashed state in the hours and hours I've evaluated it... Symbol and package creation boarders on trivial, schematic construction and PCB layout is convenient and intelligently devised, and customizability is profound. Your software offers, based on my research, the superior ratio of price/performance when compared to all other competing packages. Simply put, one cannot go wrong in selecting and using this software as their principle CAD package. I really am deeply impressed and have recommended it to my peers excitedly.

I complement you also on your choice of demo feature availability. Your discover version is powerful enough that a user feels s/he can thoroughly test the software by building a real project which s/he can then have built for complete evaluation. When I move to have my project manufactured (very soon, I hope!!) I will pass my final judgment, but you should be aware that if I feel my result is satisfactory, I know that I will take no risk whatsoever in recommending that my institution purchase your software for extended use; I will make this recommendation in complete confidence.

Thanks again for you time!!

Mr. Friedrich;

I have downloaded your demo and I am VERY impressed. I have used many, many EDA packages over the years, and they all have limitations in one way or another or were WAY overpriced. It appears a great deal of thought has been put into your product and the price is very competitive. Nice job!

I have been using the trial version of your software and am very impressed with the ease of use.... It is a great software and I am very pleased to have come across it in the internet.

Hello,

I have succesfully produced my first PCB using Target 3001! and am quite pleased with the results. I have previosuly used Protel, and am impressed that, for my simple needs, your much cheaper software package allows me to do the same things.

My next PCB is proving to be a little more challenging however...


thanks,

Stuart Walker
