Pros
What I like most about anyLogistix is how it helps you design and improve supply chains in a clear and easy way.
The best part is, the usage and management of this software is incredibly easy. Overall, I highly recommend this product to any organization looking to improve their supply chain process.
The overall experience with the software was positive and I am very much happy because this software is helping me to solve my complex assignment with so much of ease.
We are still in progress in simulating some of the scenarios. But with a very helpful Support Staff, we are really sure some limitations might be able to resolve via a workaround.
Cons
As a user, I found myself struggling to navigate through the interface and perform basic tasks.
Difficult to find the prices if you are forecasting the warehouse budget and expenditure of different locations. Its hard to find and difficult to put data.
Every time I zoom in and out, it cuts off some partners and I am unable to show the whole network.
Inserting your own data and running analyses is complicated. I received a lot of error messages but they did not tell me exactly what was wrong.

"Many functionalities and potentials to expand by the user"
Pros: 1. Ease of use 2. Has a PLE version with most of the functionalities available, and with a lot of examples 3. One of the offered functionalities is the study of risk 4. The risk events can also be included in the optimization model 5. The customers and sites models can be detailed by the use of the AnyLogic simulation package. This capability offers many potentials to the user who wants to tailor the model to her/his problem, and even expand the study to simulate usage, operations etc.
Cons: There are some typos in the help menu, and some of the terms are not very well explained. However, the more recent version's help menu is a lot better.
"Best supply chain design digital twin, simulation and optimization software"
Overall: We have built several supply chain digital twins that allowed customers to find solutions to their business challenges such as finding the optimal location of their distribution centers, finding the right size for those distribution centers, allocating demand and supply to supply chain nodes, finding cost saving, service improvements and risk vulnerabilities in their supply chain
Pros: anyLogistix is well structured and enables users to create a digital twin of any organization's supply chain. It provides support for simulation and optimization, hence becoming an ideal planning tool to find the best logistics and inventory setup, analyze suppliers, evaluate alternatives and act upon them. It is really useful to evaluate and manage supply chain risk
Cons: As any other robust tool, it takes time to learn how to use it effectively. Good thing that there are partners that offer training and support
"Experience with anyLogistix "
Overall: Despite the limitations, the software has a lot to offer and my overall experience was good with it.
Pros: What I like most about anyLogistix is how it helps you design and improve supply chains in a clear and easy way. It combines two powerful tools: optimization (to find the best solutions) and simulation (to test different scenarios). This means you can see how a supply chain will perform in the real world, even under unexpected conditions. The platform is user-friendly, so you don’t need to be an expert to use it. Plus, the 3D maps and visuals make it easy to understand how different decisions impact the supply chain.
Cons: The software is powerful but can feel complicated, especially for those new to supply chain management. Another issue is that it can be expensive, which might not suit smaller businesses or individuals. I also feel it doesn’t allow as much customization in certain cases, limiting flexibility. Additionally, for very large data sets, the software can slow down, and the available documentation may not always provide enough detail for advanced users.
"Suma Machine Review"
Pros: When we have a problem, i can get quick answers which is very good.
Cons: Interface and funktions ist seems a bit old.

Overall: As a student exploring the complexities of supply chain management, I found AnyLogistix to be an exceptionally user-friendly tool. Its design prioritizes simplicity without sacrificing the depth of analysis, making it an ideal platform for both beginners and advanced users. One of the standout features is its intuitive interface. The software provides pre-built templates and step-by-step wizards that make it easy to create and simulate supply chain models. This means that even if you’re new to supply chain modeling, you can quickly get up to speed without feeling overwhelmed. Despite its simplicity, AnyLogistix doesn’t compromise on functionality. It allows for detailed scenario analysis, helping users to explore different strategies and optimize supply chain performance. The integration with AnyLogic further enhances its capabilities, allowing for a seamless transition between strategic and operational simulations. In short, AnyLogistix strikes a perfect balance between simplicity and power, making it an excellent tool for students and professionals looking to gain practical experience in supply chain modeling and optimization

"Great Software for Company with Large Volume based Transaction"
Overall: We are still in progress in simulating some of the scenarios. But with a very helpful Support Staff, we are really sure some limitations might be able to resolve via a workaround.
Pros: 1. Software was very easy to use. And most of all, the support was quick response and very helpful. 2. With reasonable value, we already get Greenfield Analysis, Network Optimization, Simulation & Transportation Optimization. 3. We can import data in excel based and also integrate with some common db such as sqlserver & Oracle. 4. The Example Scenario was easy to understand. And most of it represents current business challenges such as Shipments Scheduling, Warehouse vs Cross-docsk Optimization, MRP Inventory Policy, etc.
Cons: 1. The software was design for Simulation. So if we want to use it as transportation planning, we need extra effort to break down the simulation back into detail shipment level. 2. Some experiment results might be different from the manual calculation. It occurs if we mistakenly identify which information to provide in order for the simulation to be correctly calculated. 3. If we still want to use the software as planning tools, we need to do some workaround so the calculation can be used. Unfortunately, this understanding might be confusing for some low educated staff.

"Useful introduction to logistics software in class case studies."
Pros: When conducting a GFA and a NO analysis for class case studies, the data tabs were easy to understand and utilize when identifying which tabs to input information into. The “Paths” feature is also really useful in displaying the connections between parties within the created network.
Cons: One improvement I recommend would be the scroll feature on the map for zooming in and out. When I want to capture a snapshot of the map of an analysis for a report, the map only shows my network partially rather than including all the partners. Every time I zoom in and out, it cuts off some partners and I am unable to show the whole network.
"Review as a Academic Instructor "
Overall: I have been using this for my Supply Chain Analytics course. It is very user friendly and helps me to teach supply chain analytics through Green Field Analysis, Network Optimization and simulation models
Pros: Easy Accessibility and Quick Support option to resolve any issues. Initially I faced certain issues as the maps were not loading in GFA scenario.
