Honestly, every time I show a simulation it knocks the socks off of the people who see it. > > **Cons**: The cost. This is the most expensive software ever purchased in my 45 years of employment. > > Fantastical (I know that's not a real word, but it describes what it's like to be able to virtually create and simulate exactly what we plan to do in the real world) ----- ### "Powerful solution for production simulation" — 5.0/5 > **Andraž** | *13 June 2024* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to make simple concept layouts and simple material flow simulations. At the same time the program gives you the ability to create very complex and detailed simulations. Also the python API alows you to easely add aditional funcionality to the program and to create more complex simulations. > > **Cons**: Bad or missing documentation for some of the functionality mostly in the Python API > > My overall experience with the program is very good. The basic functionality is pretty easy to learn and it still offers some powerful tools for creating simulations of the production process. ----- ### "Costly Simulation App for Specific Market Needs" — 5.0/5 > **mohammad** | *5 June 2024* | Aviation & Aerospace | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Visualization, Simple simulation and layout design, > > **Cons**: Needs knowledge of coding in specific level. > > Overall, the application is very good and unique. I like it and have learned to model my case, but I feel it will be difficult for most engineers to learn. The money invested in this app, considering the time required for the learning curve, seems too high. Recently, VC invested in developing robot modeling, which makes sense, but I don't think it was a good long-term investment due to the rapid changes in robot programming. instead, I expect the company to introduce a simpler way to start using AI or a simpler simulation app that presents numeric modeling using the process elements. ----- ### "Robot simulatio with Visual Components" — 5.0/5 > **Angel** | *5 June 2024* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: The possibility to integrate robots and equipment from different manufacturers/companies into a powerful and elegant simulation environment. > > **Cons**: The learning curve of the environment is a bit costly > > The experience with Visual Components has been very interesting ----- ### "More easy to use needed" — 4.0/5 > **Dietmar** | *13 June 2024* | Machinery | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Possibility to gain production times models > > **Cons**: to much programming knowledge needet. too lees easy useable > > You need one expert wo does notnig else than that programm. no chanche to handle it only a few days per year.
