“TARA Systems is a long-term and reliable partner of SES in the area of set-top boxes in a fast-moving tech environment. I am always entirely pleased with the high quality of the deliverables – particularly I really appreciate every individual expertise and their even stronger overall expertise as a highly efficient organism, their fast-paced decision making, and the high engagement of all team members. Their structured working method enables us to respond to short-dated changes in the development and thus to react to new challenges of our customer projects. TARA Systems does not only develop and take responsibility for the whole client Software, they also supported us during conception phases, market introduction and maintenance phases. It's really a pleasure to work with them.”

“Broadcom has been closely working with TARA Systems in the area of STB SoC solutions since 2008. Tara has a profound and deep knowledge of our SoCs and contributed with Inaris in several customer projects over the years in the area of DVB and video streaming solutions on our SoCs - both on Linux and Android TV. I personally cherish the Tara team and their skills not only in engineering but also in the way of coworking with us and our common customers, always constructive and with the clear focus to solve problems and satisfy the customer.”
