Easy and accessible CFD tool
What do you like best about the product?
As someone who is new to CFD simulations I found simsccale easy to learn. The workflow is straightforward and prevents user errors. Simulations run fast depending on the geometry and settings. The post process results have many filters and tools for detailed anaysis. using this tool has helped build a lot of my confidence as an engineer in thermofluid part design. If i have any questions the support team quickly reposnds and provides a video going over their suggestions which is super helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the drawbacks are when simulating complex geometry specifically parts designed in nTopology. Sometimes there can be isssues meshing or the UI can be a slow to shopw results.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Simscale is allowing us to have an accessible CFD tool to create solutions for our customers.
Easy to use for all engineering skill levels.
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use and friendly user initerface. The software is very easy to figure out and we have been able to teach it to many young engineers still in college.
The way the CAD is implemented in. I can upload an assembly and modify that assembly right in the software. Such as if something is misaligned.
The multiple different simulation styles that can be used, such as having both CFD and FEA analysis.
The multitasking capabilities and not needing a super computer. I can run multiple simulations at the same time, and still use my very basic work laptop in the background to continue working on other tasks while the simulations run.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is really nothing I dislike.
The new addition of starting your CFD simulation in translusent white when it is complete instead of being already set to cutting the model and having it show the velocity right when you look at the solution field.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping us design better products by using their CFD function to see how our new designs react under flow BEFORE buying prototypes. Allows us to optimize before purchasing parts.
Intuitive and Easy to use!
What do you like best about the product?
I like the project setup, whith the ability to have multiple geometries and simulations. The speed of meshing and simulation runs utilizing cloud computing is a huge plus. Also the documentation, support and large user base is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe some of the CAD functionality could be improved. Would like to be able to roll back the feature tree or suppress features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Understanding the affect the geometry shape has on our fan products.
CAE Analyst

CFD and Thermal
Some suggestions for improvement. Overall positive
What do you like best about the product?
Simple UI. Setting up is easy
Onshape compatible. I am able to import directly from Onshape
Cloud Based. I can run multiple sims at the same time. Computation is all online.
Variety of physics.

What do you dislike about the product?
Parts hidden in Onshape sometimes show up in SIMSCALE. I had to painfully delete them in SIMSCALE.
Limited Boundary conditions especially ( connectors). I wanted to add spings between two flat surfaces. Easy to do in Solidworks sim but I cannot do it in simscale.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Modal, Static
Helped us design our machine structure to have natural freqeuncy well above our operation frequencies. with good safety factore agains yield.

Speedy cloud-based simulations
What do you like best about the product?
Simscale has a very friendly, easy to navigate interface and incredibly well organized documentation which enables designers in our studio to perform PWC studies. Customer support is top quality, with very knowledgable team responding quickly to any queries. Cloud-based system has helped to speed up our simulations - we can now run multiple variations simultanously and compare options much faster, which is great condsidering ever-changing nature of early stage design concepts.
What do you dislike about the product?
It'd be great to have more options for display modes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Environmental analysis and comfrot criteria for design options.
CAE: FEM+CFD+EMS puzzle piece of a full could SaaS company system
What do you like best about the product?
Parasolid connection from Onshape(Parasolid kernel) to Simscale(Parasolid kernel) with version controll, works perfect.
What do you dislike about the product?
Still some features a laking like comparing two transient non-linear FEM results over all steps. Reports are not there yet (but coming as I was in contact with the UX team), but not that critical - because the browser viewer with post processing capabilities is perfect for most cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
solving linear and non-linear FEM simulations of our onshape parts/assemblies in detail with perfect support
more e-motor CFD and EMS in future

Fast and easy-to-learn simulation tool
What do you like best about the product?
Good variety of simulations. Easy of Use. Easy Boundary Conditions Setup. Speed of simulation. Custumer support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Geometry handler not the most easy to use or not really versatile. Download of the results not always available for some simulations as well as some boundary conditions (e.g. periodic) not always available . Post Processing is quite slow and does not allow the extraction of more useful info from the results (area averaged values, mass averaged values, radial or axial profiles of certain quantities).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Conjugate Heat Transfer simulation for component design, or results comparison.
Best in class CFD Technical Support
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that I can load up several simulation variations and run them in parallel...all from my laptop while traveling is AMAZING for my productivity. I'll never go back to a big expensive personal computer that I'm chained down to.
While cloud is great, people matter even more. My contact from the Simscale support team has been my mentor and coach through onboarding with the platform, and helping troubleshoot some tricky geometry. I value the best practices he shares and that the in-bullt chat feature brings me right to him. Had I known the support was so good it would have been easier for me to justify the purchase internally more quickly.

What do you dislike about the product?
There have been times when I've desired a cylindrical coordinate system, or radial symmetry. However I'm still able to run and learn everything needed from my models without such symmetry.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My initial need was a cost effective CFD software that would give me access to cloud compute resources as I did not want to buy another computer. Simscale solves that problem in spades. However it was their technical support that I came to appreciate even more.
SimScale provides excellent support for FEA/CFD
What do you like best about the product?
The level of support SimScale offers is fantastic. They offer plenty of tutorials and guiding documents, as well as quick live support through their chat. In the past, I've had videos and in depth explanations provided by the SimScale team based on my specific question.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some slight inconsistencies between versions and tutorials. Sometimes I look at an old forum and the UI looks slightly different, making it harder to follow along.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
SimScale helps iterate through design decisions faster and helps validate models before me invest time into building them.
