Capterra’s researchers use a mix of verified reviews, independent research and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or speak to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.
Capterra carefully verified over 2 million reviews to bring you authentic software and services experiences from real users. Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI. Learn more.
Capterra lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Capterra is free for users. Software and service providers pay us for sponsored profiles to receive web traffic and sales opportunities. Sponsored profiles include a link-out icon that takes users to the provider’s website.

With the evolution of power systems PSCAD is the best tool to obtain fast and accurate simulations with the help of comprehensive library of various types of models.
Lack of resources to learn more about using the software.
PSCAD is very important, valuable and intelligent software for electrical designers for their simulations.
But sometimes it is not easy to find out the roots of modeling errors.
PSCAD is one the best applications for dynamic simulations of power systems. I like all of its features including building circuits and displaying plots.
The interface is not developing in my opinion, still hard to find things and different buttons.
PSCAD's ease of accessibility and does it worth to buy.
I like all the features of this software. But sometimes it is very difficult to sort out the problems encountered during simulation.
The ability to perform CFD analysis is amazing and it is very similar to the Ansys Fluent.
I noticed a restriction on exporting files to only discovery file format.
I like the powerful and capabilities that are built into the software.
Symmetry planes, contact types, convergence reports (in my case) 'on the fly analysis' were completely missing.
I like the combination of a 3d direct modeller with the super easy simulation feedback. Design iterations are made instantly.
Installaing on a remote server without GPU is slightly painful.
Ansys discovery is a great tool for easy and quick simulation.
Too many features can be difficult to navigate.
