From his talk at the 2024 Barracuda Virtual Reactor Users’ Conference

Martin Weng

I found the use of Barracuda Virtual Reactor and the workflow easy and user-friendly. I was really positively surprised by the speed of the GPU calculations and how quickly I was able to obtain qualitative good results in minutes and hours compared to days and weeks. The staff at CFPD Software were also very friendly, supportive, and professional in all my communications with them.
