Pros/Cons
Pros
- People are pleased with the quality of the visual output and now that we can use the Occulus Rift to provide an immersive experience, there is even more to be pleased about SIMIO.
- The support team are great and very friendly and over all I find the package excellent. I would certainly recommend this to others.
- These are really great and informative. The support team are very friendly as well and also a mine of useful knowledge and experience.
Cons
- More slow for complex simulations. I don't find any other disadvantage.
- They sometimes seem to get stuck against each other instead of walking around each others.
- Too much clicks required. Lack of quick programming shorcuts.
Pros
- The Support team are also absolutely fantastic and really help answer any questions that I may have - they are such a great asset.
- Simul8 clearly recruits great talent, both on a personal and professional level. Overall - Simul8 has been great to do business with and well worth the investment.
- Great tool and very powerful. Like everything there is a learning curve, but you can get good results very quickly and as your learning progresses, you can build even more insightful models.
Cons
- Another limitation is that sometimes while using this software, operator travel link becomes corrupt creating difficulty for the users.
- Struggle to find answers to my particular visual logic problems online - always require customer support.
- The VL interface is also quite frustrating as compared to normal programming languages. Finding commands is difficult, and the use of the interface is not intuitive.
