(Original )Information
What do you like best about Microwave Office?

Microwave office is very user friendly. System level simulation, circuit level simulation and EM simulations are can be done in single AWR's unified model environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microwave Office?

Even though network synthesis wizard is very powerful, popular and accurate, at present matching by using balun's is not available in the network synthesis wizard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Microwave Office solving and how is that benefiting you?

It can do EM simulations fast by using axiem simulator. By using AWR we can achieve time to market without compromising with the accuracy of the results.

Also 3d simulations can be done by using analyst simulator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
