CSB gives access to the same innovations and benefits accessible to larger companies such as increased productivity, faster time to market and operational agility.

We decided to look for a solution that would enable us to improve efficiency, enhance visibility, reduce lead times and improve product margins. We chose CSB because of its simplicity and flexibility. It is a comprehensive PLM solution that can adapt to our needs as our business grows," explains a customer. "Small companies create some of the most exciting products but often struggle to structure their processes and leverage their competitive advantages. With CSB, they can benefit from Centric's proven industry best practices and intuitive technologies developed from our extensiv experience with implementing PLM solutions for larger businesses," explains Chris Groves, president and CEO of Centric Software.
