    This software is incredibly intuitive and really does provide a great finished product. The software runs relatively quickly and will usually throw an error right away, which is a nice feature. I didn't use the geometry editing parts of the software, but it looks promising to be able to edit files directly in the program.

    Well Suited Scenarios : 1. This is a cost estimation product that just needs the exposure of data, in fact, enriched data and after that, not just estimation, a well exhaustive set of insights and analytics can be fetched. Which in turn gives a heads-up to business. So EasyKost is well suited whenever any product needs price estimation and we don't have subject matter expert or industrial knowledge. So, in this case, it comes as the one solution for all problems.' 2. Not only for product cost estimation, this product is well suitable for the service, inventory etc estimation. Scenarios Where EasyKost is less suitable are: 1. EasyKost is an AI-enabled tool that can only work if we have a sufficient dataset to feed or else we can't control the situation within the accepted deviation and hence that can lead to a fiasco. So in such situation its good to go for subject matter expert or a knowledge expert rather than relying on any such software product

    Pros
    Altair Engineering, Inc.
    • Defining the actuators, pin joints, sliding joints is very easy.
    • Defining a motion sequence is straightforward.
    • The UI tends to make you follow a sequence of steps to be successful in doing a motion simulation and finite element analysis study on a design.
    • The motion simulation results are automatically transferred to the FEA solver.

    Cons
    Altair Engineering, Inc.
    • I think the tools to create CAD are a bit difficult to use. Consequently, it is now easier to develop the part in other software, which is bad since we need to use more than one tool at a time.

    When I needed clarification on how do use a feature or best way to define the constraints for a design problem, the response was quick and solved my needs.

    Working Model, MathCad, Dynamic Designer, Algor, and Mathlab had poor UI's and poor ways to define actuator and motor motion profiles. The force results and vectors were not easy to input into the FEA software. SOLIDWORKS Motion does not have an excellent way to define a linear actuator or its motion profile. Altair provides a UI that guides you through defining your linear actuator or motor's motion profile quickly.

    1. Easykost provides a better and reasonable costing with a very nominal deviation. 2. Very Less customization is required in EasyKost. 3. The best part is the algorithm implied, it's the best in performance and provides a predictive environment to work on. 4. Easier to use and handle. 5. Customer support is quite good, always just an email or just a ping away. 6. Easier to deploy and integrate.
