What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?

The interface is quite intuitive, I also enjoy being able to edit terrain easily and copy scenarios/geometry. Appreciate that GeoHECRAS supports lots of GIS and CAD formats. Also the tech support is extremely responsive and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

I would like to see more options for Profiles; hovering around the graph and seeing the spot on the map would be very useful. Currently have to use a workaround in the terrain option. I guess more stats options and interactivity would be handy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?

River modelling, Dam breach assessments. I am GIS Professional working with engineers, GeoHECRAS is easy to learn and a great communication tool for our clients as it creates appealing visuals and animations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?

I am using GeoHECRAS software for modeling the floodplain. The software provides a user-friendly environment and has an excellent capacity for integration with other software. The editing and GIS tool capabilities of this software are incomparable with other software in the hydraulic modeling field.

Another key point of the software is its technical support team, who work professionally and are always available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

I don't find anything in GeoHECRAS to dislike it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?

I had problems with merging several previous hydraulic modelings that were done in HEC-RAS. I used the Global Copy Command and could integrate several models into one model.

I could generate terrain for the Channel Bed using survey and Bathymetry data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?

It is EXTREMELY user friendly and makes adjusting and creating models insanely easy to use. It makes it easy to insert digital elevation models to cut sections, extend move, and add new sections and reaches. Everything about it is great and easy to use. I use this program almost daily and I would highly recommend to anyone who wants to improve their company's worth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

Almost nothing. Sometimes is has errors with saving or delineating flood extents but when comparing the opsitives the negatives are almost obsolete. I will say everytime I encounter an issue I call customer service and they help mw resolve the issue extrememly quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?

Time. it makes modeling so much faster. I also use it to process DEM data to extract contours from TNRIS. I use it all of the time for viewing surfaces in 3D and cutting quick sections for analyzing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?

The software is much easier to work with than previous ACOE editions. The underlying programming is still the same but the compatibility with CAD makes creating the models in REAL SPACE much simpler and easy to go back and forth between CAD and HECRAS which made my life a lot easier.

Best of all though is the customer service. I called for help on one of my projects and literally just set up a teams meeting right then and there to share my scree. It was wonderful being able to work with the engineers who actually created the programming to help solve my issues. I have called several times for one especially complicated project that I working through and they have been great every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

Although the user interface has improved a lot it still takes quite a bit of training and know-how in order to use the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?

GeoHECRAS is helping me solve complicated hydraulic analysis. In my particular experience it is stream flow and flooding analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?

The great visual representation of your model compared to what you see in the original Hecras version. Easy to see modifications you make to the model. The ability to have an AutoCAD drawing inserted on a layer is very handy as all the line work from AutoCAD is right there and usable to generate your model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

Still learning but getting all the coordinate systems the same and line up has been a little difficult at first. Some more result output options could be better as this program still uses the original Hecras cross section, profile, and table results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GeoHECRAS solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main benefit would be the savings of time to generate and analyze a model, which in turn saves money and increases productivity. The ability to visualize the model better, I feel probably gives us a more accurate model representation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GeoHECHMS?

GeoHECHMS provides a wide range of useful tools for gathering DEMs, soil, landuse and FEMA data. Organized in a easy-to-use architecture. It also allows for working with data across multiple platforms (DWG, Tiff, Shapefile, etc) all in one tool. In addition to the effeciency that this affords, the tools themselves work quickly. Overall, this provides a rather noticable timesavings when developing H&H models, whether the hydroloy data you are creating is to be used within HEC-HMS or other modeling platforms. In addition, customer support is excellent being able to assist with any questions you may have as you become accustomed to the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECHMS?

There is not much to report as far as issues with the software, it work well for what it is intended for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GeoHECHMS?

I have found this software to be exceptionally user-friendly and powerful. The intuitive interface, coupled with the comprehensive online training videos, makes it effortless to navigate and complete studies. The seamless integration with platforms like ArcGIS Pro and Civil 3D allows for efficient data import and manipulation, significantly reducing tedious processes and ultimately saving both time and money.

The technical support team is outstanding. After completing a model, one of their support members thoroughly reviewed it with me, pointing out and explaining more efficient modeling techniques. This level of support is amazing, especially for young engineers conducting these studies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECHMS?

The only area i would warn other firms about is the pricing and how it only allows one person to use the license at a time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is GeoHECHMS solving and how is that benefiting you?

OvOverall, GeoHECHMS significantly reduces time and increases efficiency by eliminating the need to use multiple software programs. The software's unique capabilities streamline processes, leading to substantial cost savings. One example, GeoHECHMS simplifies river routing by automatically creating and assigning 8-point cross sections to your reaches. Previously, this would require creating these sections in GIS or Civil 3D, manually assigning the points, and then inputting them into HECHMS for each reach. GeoHECHMS automates this entire process, saving both time and effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
