CYME Power Engineering Software Pros and Cons

Cyme is a easy to use software that have various modules like CYMDISt,CYMCAP for various industrial analysis needes. The integration with arcgis is also easy and one can use it several times for analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cyme software hava a drawback in maximum size of database of MS Acess. If the size goes above 300 Mb it slows down and hard to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the way the orientation of CYME prepared. I did for my QP Project for the first time. Client got satisfied with CYME output and it’s delivered output reports for all power System analysis. I got special appreciation for this Project due to CYME tool. I need to special thanks for the Manual team which made easy to learn this tool self within a 2 days time and met client requirements in 5 to 10 days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It should be upgraded to user friendly. Presently, it is 100% user friendly for Power system engineering specialist like me but not for the initial beginners. This will make CYME more successful in market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
