Gurobi Welcomes SAT AG

“Beyond our own experience with Gurobi’s advanced algorithms and full-range of APIs, many published benchmarks and studies show Gurobi is the most technically advanced Mathematical Programming solver available,” said Dr. Thomas Arzt, CEO of SAT AG. “Gurobi’s focus on continual improvement is important since we focus on delivering the best performing optimization solutions possible, now and over time, for our clients.”

“Of course, performance wasn’t the only reason we chose Gurobi. Keeping projects on-time and on-budget is something we pride ourselves on. As a result, good documentation and direct access to support staffed by Gurobi optimization experts played as big a role in our decision.”

This relationship further expands the number of ISVs world-wide adopting the Gurobi Optimizer to help them meet the needs of their clients. “ISVs such as SAT AG are a critical part of our business,” said Dr. Robert Bixby, CEO and co-founder of Gurobi Optimization, Inc. “That is why our ISV program offers flexible licensing and great support tailored to the needs of companies like SAT AG. In addition, we make a point of not building applications that compete with those of our ISVs; we’re a partner, not a competitor, and are very pleased that SAT AG has chosen to switch to the Gurobi Optimizer.”
