From India, very huge demand for the integration of IBR 1950 standard into the software and we are keenly waiting from the developer on this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The most appealing aspect for me is the basic user interface. A newcomer with rudimentary knowledge of pressure vessels and heat exchangers can readily understand the user interface. Also, when trying to design a vessel, the thickness necessary is displayed in the right left corner of the screen before even launching the programme, which is useful when using the trial and error method for speedy design output in the early phases of a project.

Importing PV Elite models into other programme (such as SolidWorks) is not recommended. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like best for PV Elite is its graphics, data collection into sensible subsets and analysis options. Nice support from Vendor, easy to use and integratation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Minor bugs in every updates and long runtime for heavy files Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
it is a pressure vessel design tool I used Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As feedback from feature users (more than 20 years), PVElite is the calculation software rather than drafting software. Suggest you concentrate on those functions of calculation to be ideally. Don’t make some low-class drafting function in PVElite to interrupt the primary operation of the analysis. Any new features may need time to trial and error by users practicing and may make users confusing. PVElite has had almost 30 years of history in the industry and market. You can’t imagine every year updating with many pages for those ‘changes. Even if for long-term use, PVElite is still “new”. It gives users a headache. Making money should not simply cater to the needs of some of the new users without professional judgment. Such as defective BOM and shell weld position.... .those features are neither complete drawing nor calculation functions. It will affect PVElite reputation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
User interface is very easy. It can be easily understood by the beginners. Codes like ASME Section VIII Div 1 codes can be easily understood through PV elite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We could not model double pipe heat exchanger. Every time we get request of design of double pipe heat exchanger we have to find a work around solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The thing I like the most is the simple user interface. New person with basic knowledge of pressure vessel and heat exchanger can easily understand the user interface. Also while trying to design a vessel we get the thickness required in the right left corner of the screen before even running the program that's helpful when one is doing trial and error method for quick design output in early stages of project.

I believe that we can not model a double pipe heat exchanger as a single assembly in PV elite. Whenever its requirement comes we have to find a workaround solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is user friendly software. It covers all aspects of ASME code of pressure vessel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Online help menu of PV 23 version. It consume more time in opening. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Pvelite is most user friendly software that enables us to optimize the thicknesses of various pressure components, specially Girth flanges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
