Integrator Quote
“In my time working with the fixture design tool I have found the interface easy to use, intuitive, and straight forward – I honestly don’t see how it could be any simpler,” said Joe Tame, Lead Systems Designer at eInteractive. “The pertinent information is a simple click away to assist in product selection and feature guidance - with easy-to-understand descriptions for each. I also like that the summary page provides cut sheets and installation information needed for the electricians and/or the design team. It’s really nice not having to hunt through a website in order to pull the required specs together.”
