❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about Quantonic quantum computers
Quantum Basics
What can quantum computers do that classical computers cannot?
Quantum computers excel at specific problems like molecular simulation (drug discovery), optimisation (logistics, finance), cryptography, and certain machine learning tasks. They use quantum phenomena like superposition and entanglement to explore many possibilities simultaneously.

Is quantum computing ready for practical use?
We are in the NISQ (Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum) era. Current quantum computers can demonstrate quantum advantage for specific problems. Educational quantum systems like ours are ready now—students can learn real quantum concepts and prepare for the fault-tolerant quantum future.

How is Quantonic different from IBM Quantum or Google?
IBM and Google build large-scale superconducting quantum computers for cloud access—incredible systems, but requiring massive infrastructure. We build accessible, room-temperature photonic systems for on-premises educational use. Think of it as the difference between a cloud supercomputer and a teaching laboratory.
