    Excellent software, excellent support

    What do you like best about the product?
    SimScale is exceptionally straightforward to use. Currently, we have only used the FEA side of SimScale, but have been very impressed. Not only is the software great, but the technical support that we receive with our subscription is phenomenal. Namely, Igor has been an incredible asset in providing tips/tricks and insight while using SimScale.
    SimScale also seamlessly integrates with our 3D software, Onshape. We are able to select the exact version of a part or assembly and import directly into SimScale.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    My only gripe against SimScale is its controls (fly, rotate, pan). It is difficult to go back and forth between various software, and need to mentally adjust between controls. I'd love to see this be more user preference driven.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    SimScale offers more informative data to us than other FEA software that we have used. We are able to easily and quickly see how our parts or assemblies will perform under loads/vibrations.

    powerful and intuitive cloud-based FEA-tool with great support

    Reviewed on Sep 10, 2025
    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    SimScale combines an intuitive browser-based interface with the flexibility of a professional FEM solver. Onboarding was quick and easy, even coming from ANSYS, and the UI lets me focus on building solid engineering models instead of spending time on setup or IT infrastructure.

    The biggest upsides for me (as a freshly started engineering service provider) are the excellent technical support (fast, personal, and very helpful), the fact that I don’t need to invest in expensive hardware or server setups, and the fair pricing.

    For everyday structural simulations (static, harmonic, dynamic, thermomechanical) it delivers everything I need. The constant updates and user-requested features are also a strong plus, showing that the platform evolves fast according to the needs of their users.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Some clients of mine expect me to use “big-name” software just for the sake of it, which is not a technical issue but can be a practical one as a freelancer.

    Under the standard mechanical FEA license, SimScale is not yet at the same level of solver robustness and feature depth as flagship tools like ANSYS. Very specialized modelling (e.g. advanced composites, multiphysics, or extreme nonlinear / dynamic cases) can be tricky or even impossible, and the solver stability can occasionally be an issue on more demanding setups.

    While the platform is improving rapidly and a new MARC solver is promising (but rather costly), for very niche requirements you may still need additional (and much more expensive) tools.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    SimScale eliminates the need for expensive local hardware and IT setups, which is a huge benefit as an independent engineering office. I can run professional simulations directly in the browser on a laptop, scale computing resources as needed, and focus on the actual engineering instead of infrastructure. The platform also shortens the learning curve thanks to its intuitive UI, so I can get models up and running quickly. Combined with responsive technical support, this allows me to deliver reliable simulation results without the overhead of traditional FEM software. From a business perspective, the pricing and flexibility make it possible for me to offer simulation services at a competitive rate, while still accessing professional-grade tools.

    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    Compared to other finite element analysis programs, Simscale offers excellent compatibility with Rhino models. I was able to quickly identify the structural fit, displacements, and interactions of my desired model. Over the past 15 years as an engineer, I've experienced many structural analysis programs, but Simscale is by far the best value for money.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    When examining external forces for various cases in a single model, I have to re-enter all the boundary conditions, and it would be nice to be able to retrieve the boundary conditions from just before.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Our company develops lightweight frame systems for modular buildings. Because we use thin steel sheets, typically around 1mm thick, we need to ensure that buckling occurs within a small range. We also use Simscale to rapidly analyze composite structures by joining composite materials. We create actual mockups, conduct structural tests, and compare the results with Simscale's FEA analysis to establish a basis for evaluation in actual projects.
    Furthermore, we are engineering curved façades with diverse geometries that are difficult to analyze using conventional structural mechanics methods. We use Simscale to analyze 1:1 scale models of secondary structures, exterior panels, aluminum mullions, and aluminum sheet panels, which are not part of the main structure, to simulate potential structural defects. Although using a slightly simplified model, we are analyzing architectural façade systems that are very large in scale and include even the smallest components. Simscale's low-cost access to supercomputing power allows us to quickly and easily perform large-scale simulations on a building scale without worrying about infrastructure costs, which is very satisfying for us.
