PROS: SkyCiv is truly one of the best Structural Analysis programs I’ve worked with. It is an intuitive tool that is as simple as it is useful. The team behind it is one of a kind and are always willing to improve their product based on customer feedback.
CONS: This tool is a new player in the field and there are still a lot of features in stage or beta mode. Other than this, there’s nothing else to complain about.
What are the best aspects of this product?
There is much to love and discover about this tool. As for me, I’ve been using this to explore the pros and cons of using certain elements for construction. Through it, I can have a pretty accurate gauge of the feasibility of a project based on the tools that we choose to use. The availability of templates are a plus for us too. We can simply tweak and customize them based on our preferences. And as an icing on top, the team behind SkyCiv is really worth mentioning here too. They have been always willing to assist me as I find a workaround on certain issues in my project. Anyone looking for a structural analysis tool would do well to implement SkyCiv on their workflow.
What aspects are problematic or could work better?
I would recommend that the developers do a final QA on their measurements. There has been a mixup in the units, I believe.
What specific problems in your company were solved by this product?
We’ve been using SkyCiv to find out which tools and elements are the most feasible in carrying out certain projects.
Are you a current user of this product?
Yes

PROS: There’s a lot to marvel about when it comes to SkyCiv. For one, I do like that it is cloud-based. This means that I don’t have to constantly worry about system updates. Whenever I fire it up, I know that I will be consistently working with the latest version. But that’s not all. I can set my subscription up to a floating license. This means that I only pay whenever I need to work on a project. This way, I’m not tied up to a commitment with SkyCiv and can explore other options whenever I feel the need to do so. It’s easy to learn also. I didn’t have to waste my time familiarizing myself with this tool. Just within an hour of using it and I’ve managed to produce professional output. The customer reps are very responsive and eager to help and contribute to projects too.
CONS: As my company grows, I’ve been needing much more sophisticated design tools and SkyCiv still lacks in this area. However, I do know that an update is in the works so I’ll wait for that.
PROS: Two of the main selling points of this program is its (1) usability and (2) convenience. It is both easy to learn and to use. I’ve been able to share files to my workmates and clients without much delay too. I owe this mainly to the tool being cloud-based. This means that I don’t have to transfer or send large files to people because they can easily access it online.
CONS: You’d have to start from absolute scratch for all projects. It would be nice to have templates in set that one can just customize and tweak a bit.
PROS: They have a really knowledgeable team working for them. I am consistently impressed with how much they know about the industry. The tool itself is simple and straightforward too.
CONS: Nothing against SkyCiv--but the only complaint I have is that I haven’t discovered them sooner. I’ve just wasted precious resources on my previous tools when I could be working with the best.
PROS: First of all, I think that SkyCiv has one of the most extensive features and elements when it comes to design software. It was built to cater to all types of creators and designers--supporting every aspect with its robust features. It’s pretty easy to use too. I don’t really have a solid background when it comes to design, but I’ve been able to successfully create projects using this software. I think that this is due in part to the supportive team working behind SkyCiv. Overall, this is a really delightful tool to work with considering that it has a reasonable price point.
CONS: I have been using this tool for a few years now and I still find it very useful. The updates are always timely and convenient too.
What I like the most is the quick and easy for creating a model and modify it. I like I can access from any device to my models and I can run it very easily. The libraries of the materials and structural elements are enought to model any physical structure.
The way of payment and the accessible prices seems very good to me. I am in Mexico and this product makes my services competitive using genuine software.
The online response time makes me feel safe when modeling any structure, I repeat, I am a Chemical Engineer and I learned to model in third dimension and to perform FEM analysis with this software.
Actually I do not dislike anything of the software, I've used it for about 2 years and they always surprised me with new complements and features.
Este software lo he comparado con otros softwares en la nube, no hay duda que SKYCIV es el que ofrece mayor facilidad para realizar tus analisis de estructuras. Lo recomiendo ampliamente, incluso si no eres Ingeniero Civil Estructural.
I started using it to model the structure of a vacuum chamber door to be used as an innovation in a process, none of the traditional pressure vessel calculation software helped me calculate that structure. I did not know anything about modeling with finite elements at the time and SKYCIV helped me to model the structure quickly and easily. In 2 days of use with SKYCIV I was able to solve my problem and build my equipment. The customers could not believe in what way I solved the problem.
Since then SKYCIV helps me solve complex structural problems and where there is pressure or vacuum involved too, I am a Chemical Engineer.
Pricing is straightforward, software is easy to navigate and the customer support is great. It's clear the Skyciv is continually improving their product.
Some Tools still in BETA , other that that I have no other dislikes yet still fairly new to the software.
If your looking for simple effective structural software with great customer support look no further.

PROS: The payment plan is pretty straightforward and affordable too. I can enjoy the benefits of a full suite of 3D rendering tool without having to commit to a long-term subscription.
CONS: There have been instances where my data has somehow fallen off the grid. I hope that the developers would look into this. It would be nice to have an in-house feature for loading cases too so I don’t have to use other tools to accomplish this.
