## FlowTracer Reviews
  ### 1. Builds are quick and smooth using Flow Tracer

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Semiconductors | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 13, 2018

**What do you like best about FlowTracer?**

It had better visibility in EDA tools and to compute resource utilization as compared to leading commercial tools. Its more scalable for EDA and SoC applications compared to general purpose enterprise tools. We had good access to the FlowTracer's development cycle and releases, so it was helpful for us to give our requests. Its really surprising that this tool is not widely used. 

**What do you dislike about FlowTracer?**

Initially the installation was little rough. The analytical and reporting capabilities could be better

**Recommendations to others considering FlowTracer:**

Any design manager will require something like FlowTracer. Its easy to use and has a great team to support. Its easily customizable and the company takes our feedback for each of their releases. So its easier to get your required features in the tool

**What problems is FlowTracer solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We used the Flow Tracker tool mostly for Logic verification and analog simulation. The tool was very helpful to avoid silly screw-up in some forgotten file update that tanks chances on first-silicon success
