Easy to use and very useful for the learning of chemical processes, especially for students of chemical engineering and professionals in the area

Many students fell behind in the semester because they did not understand their application despite being simple

It is very useful software and being a chemical engineer I have used it frequently throughout my bachelors in plant design projects and with no doubt I would recommend Chemcad for the process simulation.

Chemcad is software specially dedicated to the chemical engineers for the process simulation. While it might be difficult for the beginners to understand the interface, once you get soaked in you can make a really good use of it. Chemcad comes up with numbers of features like equipment sizing, equipment design and process economics as well. Also it includes thermophysical calculations. With all those features, it definitely helps engineers from designing a equipment to designing the whole plant as well as performing other calculations too. One might say that other application are better than this, I would definitely argue with that for the fact that it is great value for money

As mentioned earlier, this software might be quite difficult at the beginning because the interface is confusing but there are lots of tutorials and webinars held that will help you to learn. Furthermore, in case of any errors or unexpected results, you have to sort out for the problems manually as the program won’t do itself.

For processes that are not too complex, this software is easy to pick up on.

Process design with multiple unit operations is extremely difficult and Chemcad rarely converges. Little to no troubleshooting available.

Is the best option for analytical chemistry out there

Without a doubt is one of the most practical softwares in analytical chemistry, it has a lot a features, and you can handle your equipment and do the interpretation all in the same software. Also it's easy to write macros and change the features you find complicated.

It takes a great time to master the software, there in a lot of the versions the manage of the signal is very hard and the help assume you know very practical things in the equipment and the software it self.

Great chemical engineering software that allows studying chemical processes at a wide range of levels.

Use of this software is very intuitive. Simpler chemical reactions are readily set up and the dynamics and thermodynamics of those reactions accessible right away for study.

For the moment, the level of this software is too advanced for my needs. I am confident that I will eventually take advantage of many more of its capabilities, but for now the advanced capabilities confuse my analyses sometimes.
