Review: ANSYS Medini Analyze
1. The best-integrated feature application to speed up functional safety activities.2. The easy linking of safety analyses and requirements created in DOORS.
CONS1. Tool takes more system memory and hangs a lot. 2. Software doesn't have many user-friendly options when compared to other applications.

Ideal tool for FS
It takes time to learn but it is easy to maintain and complete the required documents
PROSThe possibility to develop the complete product lifecycle for FS, CS and SOTIF
CONSThere 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
Reason for choosing Ansys medini analyze

HQN review of Medini Analyze
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.
PROSWe 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.
CONSLimited SysML capability to model Systems/Items and Functional Safety work products in Medini.

Goiing Good and Need Improvements
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.
PROSit covers most of the safety activities and a change done in one activity could reflect on other levels/ activities too.
CONSTool 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.
Reason for choosing Ansys medini analyze

Medini Analyze Review
Great so far
PROSExtensibility: 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.
CONSI 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.

Ansys medini analyze review from a safety and security user point of view
The expereience is good. We now use it to speed up functional safety and cybersecurity activities for various projects.
PROSThe most impactful features are the possibility to manage most of the safety life development of a product inside a single tool. Is possible to define an item definition, HARA, derive SG, create functional safety and technical safety concepts, link requirements, perform FMEA, FMEDA, FTA. All in a single environmel and with deep in treacibility. From last version it also features security actvitity. It also integrable with other company tool beacuse it support othe rrequirement managent tool import export (for example Doors).
CONSBIRT, the add in integrated to create custom report template, is not easy to use and require some javascript programming knowledge. The user manual of BIRT contains very minimal informations and the only source of help is the Medini forum.
Reason for choosing Ansys medini analyze
IT offers a complete package to support all functional safety activities, not only FTA.

PROSHigh traceability between safety artifacts. All in one. Allows concurrent work with git. Support is good and on time
CONSYou need to write scripts to increase tool flexibility and automation capabilities. Some bugs arise from time to time. Reporting can be improved.

ANSYS Software Review
I appreciate the classes and tutorials/examples that are provided through the ANSYS portal.
CONSThe software looks old and outdated. I also wish the icons by default had word labels. It is hard for a newcomer to know they need to turn those on.

Maxwell and Simplorer user
I have very good experience with Ansys tools, especially Maxwell and Simplorer. It helped me in my project where we reduced time to market time due to good simulation accuracy and prediction of performance before asking for physical samples from suppliers. Also, it is easy to share models with suppliers, which save time and money.
PROSI really like the Maxwell tool for magnetic simulation. It is a very detailed and useful tool from the concept phase to simulation level analysis with the Simplorer tool with an easy interface.
CONSSometimes it is difficult to remember all tips and tricks to improve simulation speed and accuracy especially if tool used after some time.

Pros and Cons
functional safety analysis of automotive projects
PROSthe traceability feature is excellent, easy to use and follow. FTA feature is extra ordinary. make it lot easier to arrange and re-arrange.
CONS1. it should be in a common server so that anyone with access can leave comment and update. at the end, the complete process can trace all the updates in one version, not in several. 2. does not have any easy way to share the work. need to generate *.mprx file in order to share the work / updates. very difficult to follow up which one has the latest update.

For those who care about traceability
One of the best features of the program is the easy linking of safety analyzes and requirements created in DOORS. And also having folders such as FTA, FMECA, hazard log, safety plan etc. on the same platform provides convenience for companies.
CONSWe thought that it was directly integrated with the fault tree+ program, but it took much more time than we expected. As a suggestion, a library prepared on the basis of EN 5012X standards used in rail systems will accelerate the spread of the program to the sector.
