Reviews of AnyLogic
Alternatives Considered:
Anylogic is excellent for simulation
Comments: We are using AnyLogic to model our cross docks and yard operations. I love using this software for this purpose. The support for modeling "pedestrian" like congestion/etc on our docks and yards is amazing. I know of no other simulation modeling environment that does this.
Pros:
AnyLogic is an incredibly flexible platform for creating very sophisticated simulation models. I love it's integration with the Java programming language. Also, I like how they separate the visualization from the logic of the modeling.
Cons:
To do all that AnyLogic does, it is an extremely complicated modeling tool. It takes a while to learn.
My review of Anylogic
Comments: My overall experience with AnyLogic is quite very good, I continue learning and I have built some very good models with the software.
Pros:
Flexibility to combine more than one modelling method in one model, low code modelling, and ability to use Java for advanced modelling.
Cons:
Some of the descriptions of different objects or functions do not provide a clear explanation of the object.
Anylogic Simulation
Comments: It was good, I look forward to learn more about it.
Pros:
Its 3D simulation representation, and ease of using logics.
Cons:
I could not find a way for changing the product type in the process
Student Project
Pros:
Simple to understand and Its versatility in multi-method simulation.
Cons:
Steep learning curve for beginners to use.
One of the best simulation tool in the market
Comments: Using AnyLogic science version 5.5. Providing classes for students, and also using in research projects.
Pros:
- flexibility (use of Java), provides a great opportunity to develop very complex models - huge amount of features to conduct different types of experiments - huge amount of samples + detailed tutorials - ability to mix in one model different simulation approaches
Cons:
- very slow, probably because of the user interface - not very user-friendly in terms of writing the code, autocompletion etc - 2D/3D object library could be more wider, also would be great to have a tool to create own 3D objects
