With file sizes getting larger and larger, you need software to view and utilize the data. Not everyone has workstations, and it is not feasible to expect the end-user to purchase something for short use. With Optelos, we are sharing data with end-users and giving them a system to utilize the information without needing their own special GIS/CAD software to use the information. Sharing full-resolution models, point clouds, orthos, PDF, CAD, Word, or any information with our clients through a single system enables a more collaborative working relationship.

One of the best things is the flexibility to use the best tool for the given scenario. Sometimes photogrammetry isn't feasible, but Optelos offers location intelligence systems that cover all bases by pulling metadata from photos and files—allowing you to use visual data to complete your work as necessary.

The most significant limitations come from using the models for measuring and annotations. The point cloud is the primary tool you utilize to measure and annotate, and while it is more accurate. There is a time and place that I would prefer the model.

We have become more efficient with our estimating and project managment with optelos. Faster and more accurate estimates. Better prep with the operations team. Less mistakes in estimating and in the field. As we continue through projects the data keeps building on itself. It's so cool to look back at everything come the end of a project to see exactly how we progressed. If we did make a mistake, it's easily indentified and corrected as the software ensures the whole team is on the same page.

We had been experimenting with 3D modeling of buildings and drone software for a while and had a problem...How does one share files that are upwards of 50GB and they are not in a file format that most people can run on their average computers. In comes Optelos! This cloud based software provides a seamless environment for us to share our visual data internally and externally. The location intelligence makes going through hundreds of pictures from jobsites a thing of the past. We know where we want to look and Optelos presents everything based on GPS coordinates....even pictures from your iPhone!

Due to the software being so robust, it looks a little overwhelming at first sight. No worries though. It only takes about an hour or so to master the basic navigation of the software. Also, one must realize they are likely not going to use every feature in their business model.

It took a few tutorials sent by the company and IT help to answer our questions - once learned it is valuable but takes a bit of exploration to understand it.

File organization and annotations are helpful

Interface could be a bit clearer as to where tools are and ease of use.

Options provided us the tool to effectively monitor our own assets but also to serve a variety of industries with a single product. Tackling the Oil and Gas, Telecom, Power, and Renewables industry with one product is an amazing capability.

The ability to visualize, combine and annotate a variety of data sets all in one platform is essential to be able to maintain effective asset management. Easy of using digital twin as a base for the digital report is very unique to Optelos and creates a singular space that can be co-shared with finance, maintenance, operations, and many other teams.

The lack of ability to work with DTM and DSM models.

The data visualization is something that we use the most. We work with Drone Data so sharing the final, processed product with the client is often a roadblock. Most clients that are new to this will not know what to do with an .LAS file or a 3D Mesh. With Optelos, we are able to not only provide the visualization of their files to them but they then have the tools to work within it.

One thing that I would like to see is an option to conveniently process data. When needed, the Optelos team can process data but they are notified through a personal email/call/message. I would like to see an option for me to upload data to a folder and have a "Request to Process" form to fill out stating what I need.

It has been great so far and we are exciting about furthering out partnership with Optelos as we continue to grow out global structural integrity program.

Overall ease of use, Quality of rendering, reporting, tagging videos

***It would be handy to provide a simple path for uploading rendered 3D images there were rendered locally that could be shared using the optelos platform. This adds flexibility on the end user for allowing different work flow availability

We capture data using many different techniques, we needed a solution that worked for us but also for our clients. Optelos have been totaly flexiable in their approach which has been essential when working on such a wide range of projects. Every software solution requires different capture techniques to get the best out of it, but Optelos have been brilliant at helping us and our clients to maximise the value of the data, rather than just storing loads of files, every day is a school day and we, and our clients are better for it. Often underrated, but shouldn't be, they are nice people to work with - that carries a lot of weight.

Lack of data limits Ability to get advice Listened and reacted to our needs and that of our clients Ability to absorb almost all data and assign it to a location, a piece of equipment, whatever is required Not needing to deal with processing issues - it gets done!

Not much: The need to email when you wanted a project proccessed, numerous times I forgot to do this, including today.

We utilize Optelos to analyze major telecom operators' infrastructure assets and determine the real-world alignment to the intended design. Optelos has helped us determine errors, create scopes of work to correct those errors, create bills of material and dashboard the errors found. It is instrumental in our cause.

The ease of use of the platform and ease of availability of the most useful of data sets Optelos apart from all competitors analyzed. In addition, the software team is nimble and able to customize the solution to a variety of needs across the customer base.

Dashboarding capability could be improved to allow for greater macro data visualization. Something that looks more like Tableau for instance.

Optelos allows the presentation of construction site progress to my clients -- making the information more actionable. Also, the ability to compare to previous captures in terrific!

The ability to have all data in one place for a customer's project is invaluable. Maps, 3D models and photos are all presented in a single platform allows our customers to see the current state and history of a construction project. Customer service has been amazing -- I receive responses quickly and the Optelos team is always open to jumping on a phone call to discuss what I'm trying to show/structure. Due to the flexibility of the application -- having this type of support to help present the data to our clients correctly the first attempt helps us keep our clients happy!

It takes a little while to learn how to navigate the UI... but once you (your customers) do it is not an issue.

good and easy to use. have not tried their AI module yet.

viewing photos quickly, easy to assign roles for clients to view. we like that u can comment on video timeline.

UI / UX can be improved. Reporting can be improved .

Optelos is low cost way to professionally organize and deliver drone data. In addition, the ability to access and collaborate with the data is the most important feature for me. I also should mention the Geo Folders, being able to place certain folders that are geolocated on a 2D orthomosaic to reference something important is highly critical and useful feature.

I think the feature list, which has annotations and tags for the images can use an upgrade to the user-interface.

Awesome. We are super happy with everything Optelos promises and provides.

Optelos is a simple and smooth drone data visualisation and sharing platform.

Overall an excellent product. Maybe the processing of data once uploaded could be faster. But this is not really a hindrance.
