SDS/2 Pros and Cons

User friendly and clean UX is the best part of SDS/2. The softwares makes the life easy for the drafters by eliminating human errors as a part of semi-automation. The customer support is very responsive in the case of licensing issues and technical issues and there is a community forum for discussion. There are few features that we can integrate with is Tekla and other BIM models Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Initial setup of the software is a bit long process where the license will be in the form of hardware usb. Other than these there is nothing that I dislike about SDS/2 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

i have faced while process the model if project was more heavy its some more time for processing the members the only draw back i saw in this software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SDS2 is a reasonably capable modeler. Some of the tools in the model will save modeling time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is the least effective detailing program I have used in 20+ years. While the modeler works, the detailing options are easily 15 years out of date. I STRONGLY recommend not using this software. BOM's are weak, orthographic views are misalligned, there is no variablility in section to main view size, and views are IN NO WAY associative to the model. This was a HUGE and expensive mistake for my company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
