    Chose Altair HyperWorks
    HyperWorks is far more capable than SOLIDWORKS Simulation offering more simulation solutions for more accurate analysis. The solvers are also more efficient so you get results faster and reduce time to market.

    Altair Engineering, Inc.
    Engineering firms and companies with needs for multiple disciplines of analysis capabilities on a regular basis will benefit from HyperWorks. Companies with short term engineering needs (less than 6 months) or who only need a particular analysis/simulation discipline may be better off using a consultant (who likely uses HyperWorks).

    Return on Investment
    Altair Engineering, Inc.
    • An all in one solution keeps costs down if you need multiple analysis capabilities (FEA, CFD, MBD, etc.)
    • Analysis work supports our other engineering/design work we wouldn't otherwise receive
    • Fast and efficient solvers leads to higher throughput
