What was the best part about using MicroStation?

Sharing the project is the essential need for us since we use to hire the designers and grab the projects from the clients through the virtual market so we use to work with a collaboration of the designers and clients where we need to show the end results to the end user who is a client’s customer.

What would you change about your experience with MicroStation?

Micro station has some bugs in it since it has a lot of drags with the plotting tool and it requires us to save in the series 3 and work in the series 4 which often gets vice versa too. However we get trained in using the application we still stuck with such confusions and errors.

Overall Feedback

We hope it’s our first time to use such software so it might get ease with a continuous working on it. Its 3d drawings are good and it’s comes at an affordable price since most of the CAD software are priced highly in the market. Its interface is different from other CAD software so you need quite some training to be a proficient in using the software.

What was the best part about using MicroStation?

What I like in MicroStation is it has a good 3D modeling features so I can produce every details of what I think I my mind, like making a animations, 3D drawing and of course the documentation, so unlike simple CAD software it has a flexible tools that helps to make your work done excellent and faster.

What would you change about your experience with MicroStation?

MicroStation it makes my computer lags, MicroStation wants a good specs computer to make it use, I several encounter it crash in my laptop and it’s hard to get familiar with its tools and features, I take a months to get used of it. So I say please make changes into this software so everyone can use it in its full potential.

Overall Feedback

Overall MicroStation is a good software than others, this software is very helpful to those people loves to make design and people work related on architectural, regarding to its price, this software price is good and more cheaper than AutoCAD and other software’s, so I say try it and get to learn.

What was the best part about using MicroStation?

MicroStation is a CAD software product for two and three dimensional design and drafting. MicroStation has the ability for drafting/detailing, 3D modeling, rendering, and even animations. Microstation can be used in many industries including AEC Automotive Computer, Construction, Education, Electronics, Engineering, General,Landscaping / Maintenance, Manufacturing, Software. it allows Management of User Roles and Permissions.It supports more filetypes than Autocad

What would you change about your experience with MicroStation?

Does not support cost estimation and documentation. The software crashes often. Text editing with the text box gets some getting used to - it would be nice to edit the text and have the tools right in the text location. MicroStation pattern hatching only uses cells to fill in the symbols. It would be nice to have a pattern library like AutoCAD to fill/flood in the whole area. The learning curve is steep for new users

Overall Feedback

MicroStation is a modeling environment explicitly for the architecture, engineering, construction, and operation of all infrastructure types including utility systems, roads and rail, bridges, buildings, communications networks, water and wastewater networks, process plants, mining, and more. MicroStation can be used either as a software application or as a technology platform.This software is recommended for drafting and 3D modeling. It will take some getting used to however, especially if you are used to AutoCAD. If you want a software that is more of an all-in-one program as opposed to just a drafting program, Betnley Microstation is good for you.

What was the best part about using MicroStation?

MicroStation gives you the ability to complete task in multiple ways with lots of features you can use to assist you on your needs . The InRoads extensions are very powerful tools and can be used in multiple tasks . The wizards feature makes tasks automated to integrate raw data from other programs .After customization and after you memorize the key in tasks , your job gets a lot easier.

What would you change about your experience with MicroStation?

Missing key commands unlike Autocad . Some shortcuts doesn't make sense . Some buttons are not appropriately labeled so you end up searching for tools . The user interface looks pretty old and needs to be updated . The accuracy of drafting could also be improved as sometimes even the smallest tasks of aligning elements or joining elements can hard .

Overall Feedback

I would recommend that you use the 64bit edition, processing is limited with 32bit . I would also recommend MicroStation for short-term projects , things that need a quick fix .Great drafing tool for both 2D and 3D. It will take some time to get use to the interface if you are an AutoCAD user. Be prepared with a lot of patience when you have to use it to master it .Customize your Miscrostation to make your work more efficient .

Editing is a bit tough but with passage of time you will get used to it and you will start receiving its maximum. Just keep trying and reach at your best. As i believe in the saying "Nothing is Impossible". So every complication has a way to make it easy. I have got grip on it and find it very easy to use now.

Its awesome overall, its a great invention, getting improved day by day with each up gradation. I will keep using it, no matter whats it cost is and what are the complications, i just love it in every aspect.

What was the best part about using MicroStation?

This software prevents you from losing your work unexpectedly because of a sudden shutdown. The software will automatically save your work thus relieving your worries if ever that a power interruption occurs. It is also flexible because you can export your files in different formats that save you time and effort.

What would you change about your experience with MicroStation?

It is not that easy for you to find the tools you need for editing the text. Aside from that, it doesn’t have a spelling checker while you are typing the text that can lead to errors, thus requiring you to look at what you are typing from time to time.

Overall Feedback

Overall, this software can be very useful when making projects on like roads, bridges, buildings, and other infrastructures. It also allows you to share your drawings with your co-workers if ever that you need their suggestions or if you wanted to know if you have done it right. This will also enable you to finish a project while combining other people’s ideas.

What was the best part about using MicroStation?

MicroStation is an amazing CAD tool that simplifies the designing of 2D and 3D models. Its support for the multiple languages in multiple file formats makes designing, draftings, rendering and modeling of animations extremely easy. The software is very easy to set up and its dashboard is very user friendly. Especially its ‘InRoads’ extension tool is worth mentioning here as it helps in multi-tasking. The ability of automating the integration of raw data from the other programs and working in collaboration with other team members makes MicroStation an ideal tool for 3D designing.

What would you change about your experience with MicroStation?

Although this software comes with an abundant features, it crashes at a time, giving you some hard time when you are in the middle of your work. Text editor tool in the MicroStation should be improved. The software also lacks a pattern library, similar to AutoCAD to fill/flood the data in the working area.

Overall Feedback

The MicroStation is is highly recommended for industries like Construction, Electrical & Electronics design and manufacturing. The software supports a multiple platforms and saves a lot of time needed for designing 2D, 3D models as well as animation. The software is comparatively easy to master. All you need are a basic knowledge of using CAD software and some quality time to learn this excellent CAD software!

What was the best part about using MicroStation?

MicroStation models and documents 2D and 3D designs faster yet in a better way. I like the software is compatible with Windows and Mac both platforms. It also supports multiple languages. it supports multiple file formats so you can easily work with other files. Customizable interface and set of drafting tools are major plus points of software from user point of view.

What would you change about your experience with MicroStation?

MicroStation is great tool to design your 2D and 3D objects. I didnt have much complaints for the software. Yes, I found that it is hard to get grip on if you are new to the software, but once you spend some time with software, you will feel that it is best tool to design what is in your imaginations.

Overall Feedback

MicroStation is a CAD software product for 2D and 3D design and drafting. MicroStation has the ability for drafting/detailing, 3D modeling, rendering, and even animations. You can create detailed drawings in MicroStation as well rendering too. But it can not beat AUTOCAD as a drafting tool, though Microstations has tremendous other features which are sometimes better than AUTOCAD. MicroStation is not designed as a drafting tool but it is designed as a platform.

MicroStation is best suited for small and medium Architecture firms. It is a perfect product for 2D, 3D design and drafting. The main features of MicroStation are drafting, detailing, rendering, 3D modeling and animations. It is a productive tool for many industries like Electronics, Electrical, Cnstruction, Education, Computer design and Manufacturing. It made autocade easy with a lot of new features.

What would you change about your experience with MicroStation?

The worse part of MicroStation is that it's software crashes at any time. This really annoys me especially when I am in a middle of something. Performance is not up to the mark when you compare is with other autocade tools. They also need to improve text editor tool associated with MicroStation. However, overall it is great tool for small and medium sized business.

Overall Feedback

MicroStation is a demonstrating situation unequivocally for the design, building, development, and operation of all foundation sorts including utility frameworks, streets and rail, spans, structures, interchanges systems, water and wastewater systems, process plants, mining, and that's only the tip of the iceberg. MicroStation can be utilized either as a product application or as an innovation platform.This programming is prescribed for drafting and 3D demonstrating.

Used FOR:   Architecture Software in 2015

What was the best part about using MicroStation?

I have found Microstation to be one of the easier designing tools when it comes to CAD. It usually very easy to find the tools you are looking for. As I use the program I also find the ability to adjust my levels to do what I need them to do amazing. The ability to print a level a certain color or thicker is far superior to that of AutoCAD and other CAD programs I have used.

What would you change about your experience with MicroStation?

Level priority / draw order is far too complex. There is a hidden "bring to front" command, but there is no equivalent "send to back", so hatches must be created in a separate model. Draw order is dependent on too many things (i.e. pentable, element elevation, and update sequence. Lack of key in commands, similar to Autocad. Shortcuts in particular are lacking our non logical. The buttons are not necessarily logically labeled therefore you end up searching for tools a lot.

Overall Feedback

I like the tool based approach of Mircostation. Also, like the file reference tool (which also allows editing of the reference files), snapping tool and level manager. I also like the geographic tool where you can create the kmz file and see the project on google earth. It is very helpful for the design work on the highway projects.
