Comments from those who selected Quintura as one of their Top 10 Tools in 2007

• "searching results are shown in clouds; great visuals for kids"  Cheri Toledo
• "(for visual search), and other tools that visualize information and reveal connections not directly visible. I’m convinced that as information continues to grow in abundance, we will shift the “grunt cognition” of filtering and presenting patterns to software, so we can retain our sanity and interact with patterns instead of individual information elements."  George Siemens
