"Because of the addition of the Feature Modeler and Feature Model Library to the Feature Analyst toolset, we can now deploy novice AFE technicians on large, complex extraction projects with confidence knowing that expertly designed extraction models are being used to create refined and accurate results. These models can also be used to train our technicians and analysts on proper extraction workflow and solution-specific AFE modeling."

- Jason San Souci, Feature Analyst Power User and Certified Trainer
