Anylogic has multi-method modelling capabilities, offering a unique combination of discrete event, agent-based and system dynamics modelling. It allows users to tackle various complex problems and simulate multiple systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The learning curve is steep if a user is new to simulation modelling or has limited programming experience, Mastering the various modelling methodologies and understanding the software's advanced features may require some time and effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Its relative easy to model variables for almost any problem. On the other hand, it is a design platform that can make visible situations of improvement in an organization and through its graphic modeler, it can impact those for timely decision making, which is why it is definitely an excellent option.

Although it is definitely a highly reliable tool, it is important to highlight that to use it comfortably, the hardware is required sized according to the type of models that are developed and thus not fall short in the execution of the implemented dynamic systems, the above because, at As we make the model more complex, more processing is required.

Anylogic helps in using the discrete, agent-based and system dynamics libraries together which makes simulation more realistic. Using Java functions for customization has been a lot of help while using it for my work. It also has many examples which makes easy for beginners to learn. The interface of the software is also user-friendly. All the libraries and other modules are easily accessible. Also, there are many examples available; which although require more in-depth explanation for new users; is good enough for anyone who has a basic knowledge of this software. Anylogic is a "one-stop" software for any purpose, be it for financial sector, healthcare, supply chain, logistics or traffic management, it has a multi-purpose use.

I felt that more modules/documentation can be provided to learn from grass root level. Though examples are present it doesn't tell one how to do it, but only what has to be done. Also, one has have good knowledge of Java, or at least Object-oriented concepts to do good projects which is kind of a downside. Any learner who is not well experienced in this will find it a tedious task to do the work. Also, when compared to other simulation software's like Flexsim it is difficult to construct a model. Flexsim allows a 3d model to be made and simulated without the use of "blocks" as in Anylogic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best leading simulation software for business applications. It has simplified video tutorials which are very helpful. Used it in my previous organization for layout designing & it is highly efficient.
It has cloud based collaborations & the colorful visualizations are attractive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is bit expensive. New video tutorials has to come up with versions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Various simulation tools. Also easy to perform graphs and monitor variables. I think the statistics and graphs that you can do in Anylogic are very useful for presentations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The java interface can be tricky for people who don't know java. However, I'm not a java user and never programmed in java before using Anylogic and I felt like it was quite easy to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Very dynamic and extreme detailing can be done. Features are extremely beneficial. All sorts of simulations can also be done. Visual representation is excellent. Agents are very detailed and perfected. For an expert, this is an ultimate tool. Representation of results are great. Also, agent based simulating is a significant feature. Not many available tools can handle agent based simulation. The software advanced and is capable of handling and simulating large projects. However, significant advance knowledge is required to conduct such extensive project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are some severe demerits. Its extremely complex tool. Java is often required. The software is extremely resource (Graphics/ RAM) consuming, The biggest downside is the programming tool requirement to feature important characteristics of agents. Therefore, it is not easily doable by all, and it takes quite some time to understand the console. There are better tools available for such scenarios. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Best practice to design a process to simulate the process with actual figurs and on real ground, the anyLogic provide effective simulation of supplg chain, manufaturing, mechanical and many other processes.
Very easy in installation, processes with more details on each step can be concluded by putting a data label or any such tool there. END TO END process simulation like manufactruing, demand, plants, capicity, labours every thing can be simulated and concluded the results before deploying it.

Not easier, no open support is available. Business approach is purely understand and transmit into any logic terms, whicn are not common, it is not driven by setting a data file, like excel table etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
