What do you like best about Simulink?

They way it gives the exact values for different lengths of fibers when connected to different types of modulation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simulink?

It need certain basics to be cleared before using it. Once the basic tools are known it is pretty much easy to design the whole optisystem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The only problem is that it takes a lot of time to start up if you are using the lower version of Windows such as windows 7 or XP or VISTA. if you are using the higher end of Windows it opens up pretty quickly. For students using this software to design their optisystem it gives a perfect value for the output which helps them in their project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Simulink?

The interface is simple to use and very approachable. Having the ability to simulate a dynamic system such as a DC motor or a suspension system has been incredibly helpful in my coursework, extracurricular activities, projects, and in my professional work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simulink?

The price point is very steep for many companies to take advantage of Simulink. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Simulink:

Not a very steep learning curve, but requires a large amount of engineering knowledge to use effectively. Not very useful unless the user wants to analyze dynamic systems. This would be the only use that I can see Simulink being used for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Simulink allows engineers to simulate different inputs to a control system or a dynamic system. Engineers can create models to simulate physical systems, giving them the ability to do experiments and tune systems without spending the money to build physical tests. After building the model, performance in a physical test can be compared to that of the simulation, giving engineers the power to save large amounts of money.

What do you like best about Simulink?

Simulink is the perfect tool for control system design. It is very intuitive and easy to use. The user interface is very user friendly. It is easy to model the dynamics of any system, tune control algorithms and quickly analyze the stability and performance of the designed systems. Root loci and Nyquist plots are generated automatically and they're very easy to manipulate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simulink?

The computations can be pretty slow. If you have long simulations to run, this might not be the best tool to use. There is no easy way to debug your system/code when you encounter a problem, it is hard to introduce breaking points. You also need to buy quite a few toolboxes (controls/aerospace on my end) to get the full experience and it can get pretty expensive very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I am designing control systems for the aerospace industry. Simulink allows me to design, analyze the performance and test my algorithms and systems. It is a good way to start on control system designs and get good results and performance quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Simulink?

Simulink is a complete package for control system desingning. The interface is very convinient for beginners since it has got plenty of tutorials and help option in case the user gets confused

The best part of simulink is we can solve differentials equation.very quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simulink?

At times the process gets slow to generate output. The Cost of the sofware is also in bit expensive side. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Simulink:

I would only wish the pricing of the software to come down for many consumers to get benefitted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I have used simulink across most of my projects such as to create data analysis and comparison I have created even math problems that needed a quick and clear solve, manipulations and graphing of the results obtained. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Simulink?

I like this software because this software helps me to simulate any engineering related things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simulink?

As I am an engineering I have no dislikes about this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Simulink:

As this software is very wast and all the features are not used by our company I would as that the price is comparably very very high and the use is somewhat less. Otherwise the software is Best. Thank you Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I am an Electrical Enigneer and I am working in the De thok company. Our company has many meets with this software as this software simulates and tells about the working condition of any model we make. I think this software will touch many heights of success as I know uptill now I have seen the only software which simulates. As the software which is very very expensive approximately 15 lakhs. But it is very compatible and frequently used by our company. This software is used by our company to simulate the circuits, as the circuits in real life are very hard to implement as it can have a blast or explosion. So like this it helps us to scope the waves and to multiplex all the equipments and helps us to simulate that the PCB or our products will be easy and compatible to use for the longer and better use. Mainly the Power electronics parts are the best as our company uses that part frequently as the PCBs are direct in connection with the PCBs. So from my side this software is very good and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Simulink?

Thanks to it's visual programming style software can be developed faster than using just code. Also it's easier to maintain it for other people Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simulink?

You need a lot of money to buy it. Sometimes you must buy an expensive module that you may use only for a small part but without it you can't keep going. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Simulink:

Evaluate which modules you will need carefully or maybe you will have expensive surprises. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Simulink?

Drag and drop option is the best I would say. Also use of built-in libraries for signal processing is a child's play! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simulink?

The interface could have been a little better as sometimes it is buggy in a way that when your design gets big it's difficult to make it modular like one can do in LabVIEW. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I used this tool as a Master's student at New York University to design and simulate a laser based circuit for my Nano-electronics devices course. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Simulink?

Simulink has in built logical and mathematical operators which we can drag and drop and implement any mathematical circuit.

It also has S function blocks in which we can place the code and test it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Simulink?

There is nothing to dislike in Simulink. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I have implemented rate transition filters,PID controllers and Gauge movement algorithms using matlab and I realized that we can very easily implement continuous algorithm models in Simulink which cannot be done using a flowchart or a statechart. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
