## Reviews

### "Simul8 Review" — 2.0/5

> **NUR SELIN** | *9 July 2024* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It has some good features such as importing/exporting data via Excel easily. It provides ready to use simulation results. Visual logic is perfectly helpful for interact the simulation as user wants.
> 
> **Cons**: The software always hangs while we're using/creating simulations. In addition, due to huge amount of data is imported to the software, it slogs on to process the data. The graphs display poor visualisations.

### "Happy with the time spent" — 5.0/5

> **Adrian** | *10 December 2025* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very complex, in a good way. This can be used for a lot of things to increase outputs in production and id like to learn more.
> 
> **Cons**: Would need individual training to set up. I find that once its set up its a great tool but to apply it to my area, i would need help
> 
> Very good, great presentations. All the answers were very torough and show that the range for this is very big

### "Great Product" — 5.0/5

> **Colin** | *25 April 2024* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Support from team on getting started and support.
> 
> **Cons**: Training in the start up package should be longer.
> 
> Enjoyable to use and making the simulation.

-----

### "Simul8 User Review" — 5.0/5

> **Matthew** | *16 January 2025* | Design | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software is very dynamic in terms of the types of problems you can solve with it.  You can do a lot with the basic functionalities but the visual logic can open up even further potential.
> 
> **Cons**: It can be quite difficult to learn by one's self.  The online help supplied by Simul8 is good but maybe more in-depth examples would be useful.
> 
> It has been positive, and as I've used it more, you learn just how capable the software is.

### "User Feedback" — 4.0/5

> **Pranav** | *11 July 2024* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: 1. Ability to visualize results, KPIs in Result Manager&#10;2. Ability to export results easily&#10;3. Ability to have Visual Logic code at one place&#10;4. Built in plot features e.g. Utilization, Contents
> 
> **Cons**: 1. Hangs/Crashes a lot if the simulation input data is huge&#10;2. Takes huge time loading (on every click) if simulation input data is huge&#10;3. Visual logic needs experience (unlike java or other commonly used languages)&#10;4. The resource-pool size value changes after optimisation experiment is run&#10;5. Their is no direct way to plot utilization for activities that have replications (\&gt;0)
