E*ECAD provides EDA tools from a variety of vendors using several licensing models, that enable customers to tailor purchases to their needs. E*ECAD currently offers tools covering process development, front end, back end and physical design. Tools can be leased or purchased through E*ECAD using the pay per hour rental model, monthly and yearly subscription licensing, or perpetual licensing. All tools, regardless of method utilized, are downloaded and run on the customer's workstation.

By providing its partner companies with global exposure, and automating their software sales, distribution and support, E*ECAD is meeting the needs of both customers and EDA vendors.
