Inlynk Optymo is designed specifically to address the needs of the EDA market. We get tremendous satisfaction when we hear from experts in the electronics field who have found Optymo exceeds their expectations.
Optymo is well-designed for our business. Interface Concept is a 44 person R&D company focused on the design, development and manufacture of electronic embedded solutions targeted to Defence, Aeronautics, Transportation and Telecommunication industries.
On the one hand, we were initially attracted to the flexibility of Optymo, and on the other we were impressed by Inlynk’s network of partners and its focus on, and understanding of, the electronics industry. Optymo is clearly designed for companies like ours by people who are sensitive to our expectations in terms of responsiveness and adaptability.
With Optymo, we measured the time saved by automating actions that previously were manual: the result was that the time saved is used for tasks that have more value for the company – increasing our overall productivity. For instance, a delivery that previously took us one hour, now takes only 5 to 10 minutes with Optymo. The same can be said for customer orders, managing the stocks of components, controls, automatic transfer of accounting entries to our accounting software — in short, everything has become faster with Optymo.
Moreover, the quality control in Optymo reinforces our ISO 9000 process and thus strengthens the confidence of our clients in our products.
Optymo lets us deeply understand our process and purchasing decisions. This includes the technical aspects of our projects, tracking and measuring part and vendor quality, performance, and many other important business functions. With Optymo, we can interact directly with our database, and can take informed action based on the custom reports we create in-house, as well as having the flexibility to develop add-ons to extend the use of the Optymo software.
In fact, everyone at our company uses Optymo because it is a real platform for business. In a word, is a comprehensive tool that is indispensable to our company.
Mr. Héliès, Interface Concept
First of all, the electronic orientation of Optymo held my attention.
Actually, it's the only software that I've seen that is able to manage our industry's constraints, particularly the management of substitution parts, multiple references and manufacturing references. I also appreciate the multimedia features of the database (PDF files management, for example), as well as the power of the search engine.
André Noël, Production manager, LyrTech Inc.
I've been particularly impressed by the flexibility, speed and power as well as the overall simplicity of the Optymo search engine.
This software is very useful for our inventory control and enhances our purchasing process efficiency. And the outstanding professionalism and availability of Inlynk's technical support is an important factor worth highlighting.

Dear Inlynk,
I want to let you know that we are pleased with our recent purchase of Optymo, which has allowed us to establish a rigorous management of our production and procurement activities.
This tool fully meets our expectations and the installation was very straightforward and simple. Also, Optymo was easy to configure and adapt to the specificities of our internal organization.
In addition, the responsiveness of your staff and their attention to our requests is very valuable and makes us feel like we are working as a team.
We will certainly recommend this tool for companies wishing to acquire an ERP system that is easy to use and implement, and well-adapted to the field of electronic design.
Jean-Luc Pavy, CEO, TeamCast
Although METRAWARE is research office and only does buying for prototypes and small series of designs, Optymo has had a significant positive effect on our stock management and procurement activities.
Optymo not only allowed us to minimize the cost of acquiring components through automatic and up-to-date comparisons of prices from various suppliers, optimizing the order quantity across several projects without it becoming a headache (our original reason for purchasing Optymo); but because Optymo is networked throughout our company it allows efficient and consistent selection of parts from the very beginning of a project, without needlessly increasing the number of parts, vendors or proposals.
The time we invested in customizing our Optymo database was well worth the effort as we use it several times a day, if only to reference a datasheet of a component or a packaging list.
