Genial, muy potente para educación y simulaciones de sistemas, sobre todo para ingenieros industriales.

Pros

La interfaz gráfica del modelado y datos facilitados de la simulación. Motiva a mis estudiantes de ingeniería industrial.

Cons

Dependencia de conocimiento de programación. Considero que deben de reducirse la dependencia de saber programación, este programa es muy potente para ingenieros industriales, pero los ingenieros industriales no tenemos mucha experiencia en programar.

Pros

Its value for money and provide security for my files. Also customer support is pretty much good. Effiency is alos good like its efficient, and it consist of tutorial based training.

Cons

actually the application it too much large when i installed it is about 7 gb of size, so in this part i find it difficult

Pros

I was introduced to this software by my university professor. I got interested with the use-cases, and looked into cloud library. Then I started creating some real scenarios in the tool to learn modeling and simulation. Proud to say that I made a small transportation simulation that replicates local transport system of my town. Every possible and required options are available in the software.

Cons

I learned AnyLogic on my own, by going through guide book and videos. I created the model but it was difficult to operate. I felt that UX can be improved. When I zoom in or zoom out or scroll, it was not intuitive. Since there are different versions (free, paid), it is not clear which programming library will work and which not.

Overall, I rate this software a 9.5/10. I honestly couldn't find any other software that does the job like this one, it's honestly the most helpful tool out there, and certainly, super fun to use too.

Pros

I love how easy it is to use compared to other simulation software. Programming is also extremely efficient. The 3d engine works like a charm and I honestly couldn't be happier with it. It has all of the necessary guides online to easily get started, so you can learn the basics in less than an hour. Customer support is extremely helpful, their answer times are short and they treat you really well. Security wise, I didn't have any issues at all. It also seems extremely worth it, specially when you work at a company.

Cons

The only issue I had was the amount of tools locked behind a paywall. Some of this would be helpful in the student edition (like the git feature and having the limitation to not be able to use web sockets).

Overall, my experience with AnyLogic has been positive. It is a powerful tool that can handle complex simulations with ease, though its dated interface sometimes slows down workflow. Once you get past the learning curve, it becomes an invaluable resource.

Pros

AnyLogic offers a vast array of functions and modeling capabilities, allowing me to simulate complex systems effectively. The versatility means it can be adapted to many industries, from logistics to healthcare, and the built-in tools help streamline the simulation process.

Cons

The user interface feels very outdated compared to modern software. While it is functional, it lacks the intuitive design and visual polish that could make it more enjoyable and efficient to use, especially for beginners who may find navigation cumbersome.

Pros

A lot of system dynamic scenarios and simulations can be analyzed with this software. The tutorials were also very great, which as a student, I really appreciate!

Cons

I found that the UI was at first difficult to learn. But with the help of the tutorials I managed to overcome the difficulties.

I thought it was pretty good, I think that there are some things that can be better like customer support and student use but overall it was pretty good.

Pros

Flexibility to do work and options, I liked that everything was very transparent and allowed me to get my work done.

Cons

Looks a little behind on technology graphic wise. However I think that is still very small compared to the overall project.

In all I rellay like the functions of anylogic, its fun to lean and "try and error" your own simulation models. But sometimes ist difficult if you dont how to solve a problem. the anylogic help + cloud is great but not that easy to find the right solution to your problem soemtimes, cause of the amount of funcionalities

Pros

easy starter concept but possibilty to model complex Logistic systems. I really loce the amount of different opprtunities to finish your task

Cons

more tutorials fordifferent block would be helpful, new "how-to" videos for busines cases. Maybe a mothly trial for premium for students like me :)

Pros

the user interface is easy to use. the software features are excellent for making a simulation including adding variables to make the simulation more realistic

Cons

the manual or documentation is not detailed enough for certain use cases. for beginners, the modules sometimes are easily switched over and can cause confusion.
