Easy to use & user friendly for the design of underground mines

We can perform all our 2-d layout work in one application instead of having different layouts for each area. It takes quite some time to load but I don't think it's too slow once up & running; definitely much faster than Excel / Powerpoint and other spreadsheet programmes! Notifications are not always clear as we get lots of them. The documentation isn't all-inclusive when using v4.0 or earlier versions. They have an online guide which does help but lacks detail on how certain features may be used compared to older versions. Also needs more examples on how to use certain functions (e.g.,'minimize' option). Easier to manage multiple plots and areas within a single document rather than duplicating information. Easy to use when it comes to modeling of underground mines. I have used other products in my day but this one has been simple user friendly with easy learning curve for users new to the program. Can't think of any dislikes at all! It's an excellent product if your looking for something to give you more control over your design process in regards to underground mines.

Pros
  • Very good 3D modeler that gives great visuals, very helpful graphics tools just what is needed without bogging down system resources due to excessive memory usage like most software packages do nowadays.Easy access from various devices including smartphones/tablets etc..The ease by which drawings change between views makes quick changes possible during planning sessions where there could easily become delays
Cons
  • Mostly okay, but...
