Members Testimonials
'BASDA has proved to be an invaluable interpreter of legal and regulatory changes and the impact of these requirements on our software. Through the use of collaborative working parties, where Access may appear as a proactive contributor, or a more passive benefactor, we attain industry specific knowledge at a low cost of acquisition. This allows us to focus on what's really important - providing the best software solutions for our clients.'
'As the recognised voice of the software industry, BASDA has been able to successfully communicate our opinions at a level which would be difficult to achieve independently. Acting as a collective voice, BASDA works tirelessly to safeguard the interests of our industry.'
Kevin Misselbrook, Customer Services Director, Access UK
'Mamut has been a member of BASDA since 2000 because of BASDA’s unique position in the UK software business landscape, its interaction with UK government and the network opportunity it provides with our peers in the UK. In addition, BASDA’s engagement regarding industry issues and defining standards is unique, even in a European perspective.'
Eilert Hanoa, CEO, Mamut ASA
'I have been a BASDA member for over ten years with a number of UK-based business software companies including SAP and IFS. I have always felt the need to continue membership, primarily to be able to stay in touch with issues affecting the industry and to stay close to what my competitors are doing.'
'The Marketing SIG has been especially useful in working together as an industry to gain the best deals and services from suppliers, such as event and exhibition companies.'
'The weight and standing of BASDA as an industry body has given me and my company access to key Government and EC officials; contacts we could never have dreamed of reaching as a single company.'
'BASDA’s ability to clarify industry issues and set standards has not only informed and educated our customers and prospects, but also initiated many sales opportunities, for example in the areas of EMU and eBusiness.'
Peter Robertshaw – Marketing Director, Active Risk
'I am a great believer in not re-inventing the wheel, so I find BASDA meetings an excellent opportunity to meet with my peers and share experiences and best practice.'
