1. The best-integrated feature application to speed up functional safety activities.2. The easy linking of safety analyses and requirements created in DOORS.

1. Tool takes more system memory and hangs a lot. 2. Software doesn't have many user-friendly options when compared to other applications.

It takes time to learn but it is easy to maintain and complete the required documents

The possibility to develop the complete product lifecycle for FS, CS and SOTIF

There is no straight way to follow the V-cycle process. It is required to jump from a project item to another one continuously to fulfill all the docs

We are using Medini to implement our Functional Safety Process. Overall, the tools is acceptable. It gets the jobs done with ad hoc works-around that must be manually recreated in different models. Should use SysML or at least UML as template in the same fashion as Sparx System's Enterprise Architect or IBM's Rhapsody.

We use all features of Functional Safety analysis. Medini allows us to have all these analysis to be coherently located in a single model. The tool is relatively easy to use. But, create templates to tailor the tool to our existing process is challenging if not impossible without expert help from Ansys. Currently, we cannot integrate Medini with our other tools except by exporting/importing via MS Excel or MS Word. And, this process is cumbersome and prone to errors.

Limited SysML capability to model Systems/Items and Functional Safety work products in Medini.

The idea is good to have all safety activities in the same tool. still Medini have many blockings for new users, where they feel more easy on the old classic tools than Medini.

it covers most of the safety activities and a change done in one activity could reflect on other levels/ activities too.

Tool take more memory and hangs a lot. Also Medini dont have user friendly options, compare to the classic tools we used for analysis, in particularly where FMEA/FMEDAs even a copy paste is not supported.

Great so far

Extensibility: I like it how easy it is to extend the metamodel and enhance the modeling flow with custom scripts. This makes it very easy to adapt medini into pretty much any safety/security analysis workflow. Reporting: The integration with BIRT is fantastic and the fact that you can automatically generate reports from top to bottom and export them in many different formats takes a lot of the burden off of the team. Community: The scripting and reporting forums are a great source for information on how to get the most out of Medini. Integration with external tools: The integration between Medini and tools such as SCADE Architect and Simulink makes the communication between system architects and safety/security engineers very straight forward.

I feel like sometimes it is hard to find examples on scripting and reporting. A more extensive documentation covering those would be welcome (especially concerning scripted data sources in reporting). This is a very minor con though, since the support we get in the Medini forums is top notch. But it would be a nice feature to have.
