San Jose, Calif., June 28, 2004 -- For the third consecutive year, Novas Software, Inc., the leader in debug systems for complex chip designs, ranked first in customer satisfaction and referral potential in a comprehensive EDA branding study conducted by CMP's Electronic Engineering Times (EE Times) in April and May, 2004. The EE Times survey gauged the perceptions and preferences of 662 chip designers in North America and Europe on various aspects of brand equity including brand awareness, product association, company reputation, purchase considerations and use, customer satisfaction, repurchase loyalty and referral potential. A total of 32 EDA tool vendors were evaluated in the study. >Novas rated highest among all vendors for customer satisfaction and "referral potential" indicating that Novas customers would recommend the company to a colleague. The debug leader ranked fourth behind the three largest EDA suppliers (Cadence, Mentor Graphics and Synopsys) in vendor perception, purchase consideration, product usage, best integration with other vendor tools and most ethical company and was consistently ranked above average in every other category measured.
