Trusted by Supply Chain Leaders
Z2 fills a critical gap for our purchasing... so we don't end up with stoppages. It has been a valuable tool allowing our organization to avoid supply driven product redesigns and, alternatively, massive inventory over-purchasing.

It was a game changer for us. Z2 freed our team from manual checking and data gathering, delivered incredible time savings across our entire product portfolio, and gave us a scalable foundation to future proof our compliance processes.
The great thing about Z2 is that it has been evolving with the industry and global requirements. The tool has been helping us more and more as we have been using it, and the benefits to the company have been increasing with our usage.
What we're now doing is building out a global component library with a connector – or data feed – from Z2, which is the world's most comprehensive aggregator of electronic component-level attribute information.
