## Reviews

### "Nice geological software\!" — 5.0/5

> **Bartosz** | *2 November 2018* | Oil & Energy | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ability to create cross-sections and logs of rock formations. I cannot describe how important this is in geology. Good cross-section log is essential for formation evaluation.
> 
> **Cons**: It takes a while to get used to the interface, but every software is like that. One just has to learn a way around it.
