GeoHECRAS is user-friendly and allows me to utilize a number of features to come up with the best deliverables I can. The interface is easy to refer to whether working with other engineers or showing our clients the results of a study. It has provided my firm additional opportunities to serve our clients in numerous ways and has saved me a significant amount of time. This has allowed myself personally to be more effective while reducing budgets for clients I'm working with. Lastly, the customer service for CivilGEO is incredible. They're always willing to help however they can and are quick to respond to any question you have. Overall, it's a great software that I would recommend to any engineering firm.

The oft-advanced notion that the advantages of NX are mainly about "free-form stuff" is false. Even if you're primarily doing work involving traditional machined parts (as I do), the toolset in NX allows for faster workflows both in concept and in production design. Equally importantly, the toolset in NX enables quick accommodation and steering of late-breaking concept and scope changes, which is a great factor regarding client satisfaction (and thus repeat business).

ZWCAD pleasantly surprised me. It is incredibly lightweight, quick to open files, and very easy to adapt to, especially for those who have used other CAD programs. The interface is intuitive and the transition was almost immediate, without the need to relearn everything from scratch. I am amazed at how ZWCAD manages to be far superior to Autodesk's CAD.

I’ve been using Onshape for over six years and have logged more than 2,000 hours in the platform—and it still impresses me. The interface is clean and intuitive, and the feature set is powerful enough to handle complex design work without feeling overwhelming.
What really sets Onshape apart is its collaborative workflow. Real-time sharing, version control, and branching make working with others seamless, whether you're in the same room or halfway around the world. One feature I especially appreciate is Follow Mode—being able to follow someone’s cursor as they work through a model makes collaboration and review incredibly efficient. It’s the next best thing to sitting side-by-side. As First Robotics Mentor, this feature allows me to follow my students' work in real-time and recognise where they are struggling to better support them on their way to becoming Onshape masters.

I would praise Joe for his understanding and diligence during what was for me a difficult period following a complete system loss. Customer care for me is about solving issues in a constructive and friendly manner. Well done.
CMS software is very very good value and on a cost/licence/usablity basis it is excellent and if you can use Autocad it is a straight forward product to use and downloading and pruchasing the item is simple once you get it clear in your mind which model of whichever version of the software you are looking at and wish to buy.
The software is very easy to install and set up for your personal requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Top Mechanical Engineering Software Result from Civil Engineering Design
I have taken at least four courses on PCSWMM, and yet I still find it difficult to tackle some workflows. Geostorm is like working with a LEGO model, although I must agree with one previous reviewer that adding catch basins to the pipe instead of a model is quite awkward. That is a SWMM flaw, not a GEOSTORM flaw. Some other wrappers have worked around that, and with good reason. I believe that CivilGEO would like to cover all EPASWMM bases before tweaking the actual model, and that is completely understandable. You have to walk before you run, but my first work with GEOStorm was a gigantic solar farm that covered an entire town, draining to a river that was also modeled in GEOStorm. I tried Autodesk's Infoworks, and I don't understand why a flood model needs to look like a relational database.
GEOStorm will be your best bet if results are what you are after. The problem with most of these other programs is that they fail to prioritize the user experience. If you need to gather rainfall, streamflow, terrain, land cover, and soil data before laying out your model, you are already a couple of days behind, and most importantly, you will be tired before you start modeling. See, I look forward to working with CivilGeo's tools. It is that engaging, and that in itself is a battle won. The most difficult part of any project is getting started, and CivilGEO's products invite you to do just that. When was the last time you were eager to work? You have to experience it, because you have three options;
1 - Work slowly
2- Have a battery of Python scripts that can pull all that data for you. (Good luck maintaining that library for a few users.)
3-Use Geostorm
Five years ago, I wasn't sure if I would continue with my career in water resources. I was getting tired and bored. CivilGEO is one of the main reasons that I continued, and for that, I am grateful.
If you cannot relate to that, the same thing happened to me on the other side of my professional career, land development, some ten to twelve years ago. Learning Civil3D changed that.
Many people are familiar with CAD, and a significant number are also familiar with GIS. It is the common ground and the intersection of these two that makes things go right. CivilGEO understands that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The other people that I work with use SolidWorks which is way more than what I need. I was using AutoCAD every day to accomplish my 2D projects. The fact that it works with AutoCAD files is definitely a plus.
I myself have not had the need to contact Customer Service but others at my office have and expressed that it was a nice experience. They were treated like a person and things were explained so that they could understand.
It was easy to get started using DraftSight since it was similar to AutoCAD. This saves a lot of time from having to completely learn something new. The layout is simple and easy to use. With using DraftSight every day, it is really nice that it integrated with my current way I work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Top Mechanical Engineering Software Result from PCB Design

The MCAD CoDesigner functionality has been very useful for integrating PCB designs into our mechanical 3D models in AutoDesk Inventor, and was a big reason we moved to Altium. The 3D views are very useful within Altium and creating PCB footprints and adding existing STEP files available from many component manufacturers is easy. The OutJob functionality is useful in exporting files.
The Draftsman documents are very powerful and have saved a significant amount of time in creating and updating production documentation. The layout capability works very well with a lot of configurability.
The ActiveBOM functionality is useful is checking part status and availability and for rolling up BOM cost.
Overall, Altium was an enormous leap from Mentor Graphics PADS (which I used for the previous 15 years), although now there are a number of other alternatives, including at least one open-source alternative that also has impressive capability (I have not explored these in detail).
Electronic design (schematic capture and layout) only makes up 10% of my working hours according to my time logging (among mechanical design, project planning, as well as customer, sales, and production support), but I am quite productive in Altium compared to my previous workflow. If this was my primary job function, I would be even more comfortable in the software as it is certainly designed with the "power user" in mind, but there are many things I don't remember or haven't needed.

IronCAD has several ways of doing the same thing so it is super easy to learn even for people with no previous CAD experience. Power users can when needed use the same technique as in the competitor's programs so it's not limited to just one way of working. I have stayed with IronCAD for 23 years and I have seen over the years how the competitors mimic things that have always been possible in IronCAD.
It can do everything we need at our company, including the creation of advanced corrugated boxes with correct consideration of inside loss and more.
We have also started using it for design of thermo formed trays and it works quite well. There is some improvements needed in this area but IronCAD is working hard to create those improvements.
The programming API is well developed and we have created a large number of plugins ourselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
