based upon customer feedback had resulted in a simulation product
years ahead of anything else on the market," said Frank Perna,
chairman and chief executive officer of MSC.Software. "The
simulation software market, and PLM market at large, is very
competitive, but MSC.Software wins deals because we have the
deepest, broadest software product portfolio and a dedicated
services and support team to satisfy our customers. We look forward
to continuing our close work with Toyota engineers in Japan and
