What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?

User interface is easy to implement, vs the standard Army Corps version. The Army Corps version, while evolving frequntly lacks most of the features within GeoHECRAS. Models can be quickly developed and this is a huge time saver, especially with tight project budgets. Software integrates well with other software packages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

The upfront cost is steep, but the yearly maintenance fee is a fraction of the cost. The unlimited tech support makes up for any shortcomings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Projetc budget are alwasy tight, and the automation included (cross section and flow direction setups), plus the report writing options are huge timesavers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?

Streamlines modeling with ease and great support." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

The software sometimes crashes, which can be disruptive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I have been using GeoHECRAS software from CivilGEO for my hydraulic modeling and floodplain analysis projects, and it has significantly improved the efficiency and accuracy of my work. The intuitive interface and powerful automation features make setting up models, running simulations, and generating detailed reports much faster compared to traditional HEC-RAS methods. The software seamlessly integrates GIS data, making it easy to import terrain models, aerial imagery, and shapefiles directly into my projects. I especially appreciate the technical support team, who are always responsive, knowledgeable, and ready to help resolve any issues quickly. Overall, GeoHECRAS has become an invaluable tool in my workflow, streamlining complex hydraulic analyses with impressive speed and precision. Highly recommended for any civil engineer or hydrologist looking to enhance their modeling capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?

GeoHECRAS has allowed me to use existing Civil 3D drawings in our hydraulic analysis. This allows us to manipulate the terrain and take a 3D view of what the analysis looks like without wasting time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

In most projects, our drawings vary in size from small to very large. It is necessary to clean up the drawings before importing into GeoHECRAS so that the program itself doesn't become bogged down. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

This program allows me to calculate and effectively report on hydraulic studies so that I can coherently convey the site design and know what effects the proposed outcome will have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

One of the downsides I experienced was not being notified there was a new version available for download and so my version was giving a fatal error. Once downloaded, it performed much better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

GeoHECRAS is mitigating flooding issues by generating flood maps and finding solutions through potential flow controls. The flood map feature really assists in pinpointing where the issues lie. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about GeoHECHMS?

GeoHECHMS imports data from a variety of sources quickly and seamlessly, integrating them into a very accurate model. Thus, providing a user-friendly model that precisely calculates the necessary data, and allows the user to easily design their system. The tools within the software are intuitively easy to implement. All of this saves the user vast amounts of time, especially when compared to the use of multiple programs to perform the same tasks. This software is now our go to for all of our stormwater design projects.

GeoHECHMS's customer service is the best I have had the pleasure of dealing with. They are prompt to respond, and are able to swiftly fix any model errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECHMS?

Most of the error messages clearly state exactly what the error is and where to fix it within your model. But some of the error messages are vague. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Through GeoHECHMS's incorporation of elevation, soil, and rainfall data, stormwater models are quickly and easily created and analyzed. The software's ability to blend these data sets into a cohesive model eliminates the need to use multiple software programs and hand calculations to derive the required data needed to create an accurate stormwater model. Additionally, this software's ability to edit the model is faster and simpler than the other programs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about GeoHECRAS?

The user interface and additional tools provided in GeoHECRAS are what make this software helpful. It is more user-friendly (not switching back and forth between RAS Mapper, geometry editor, etc.) for building models, running multiple scenarios, and visualizing the model and results. The 24/7 customer support is also a big positive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

I've run into a few software bugs/glitches in the software where things didn't function properly or the license manage would ask me to enter my license activation repeatedly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Increased effeciency in developing flood models. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GeoHECRAS makes HECRAS much easier to use. The data entry can be automatically popuplated via importing from AutoCAD. The tech support is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECRAS?

There's not much to not like about GeoHECRAS. Some data entry (editing) is a little awkward, but much better than straight HECRAS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use GeoHECRAS for bridge design. It saves much time over using just HECRAS. Options/Alternate bridges are far easier to consider using GeoHECRAS Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
