It is the most powerful multi-paradigm simulation tool I´ve ever seen. In spite of the fact I am not a software expert, I could develop high quality simulation models in the field of container terminals supply chain.

AnyLogic is a simulation package that provides value to users at all levels. The visual UI allows entry level users to quickly develop insightful simulation models. The ability to customize models with Java provides the flexibility and freedom for advanced users to develop highly detailed and complex models efficiently. The integration of AnyLogic with such a widely known language such as Java makes it accessible to a very broad talent pool, and eases the learning curve for good programmers to become advanced AnyLogic users.

AnyLogic was the clear choice after comprehensive evaluation of multiple systems and further prototyping in those that were shortlisted. Furthermore, it continues to impress the deeper we get. There's no doubt the right simulation and modelling tool was selected for the majority of our current and future needs.

I would recommend AnyLogic software because it is a mature platform that allows a combination of multimethod modeling paradigms, in a very user friendly and open manner. Plus it takes advantage of Java which is also a technically mature and secure way of building models. The advantages of agent-based modeling with AnyLogic is that you can combine it with other methods and combine existing knowledge with agent based approach. Also, it’s fairly user friendly, the facilities in the graphical user interface and development are very good. Artem Parakhine,

AnyLogic is an easy to learn platform that is able to incorporate various modeling techniques to allow us to create powerful solutions for our clients.

I go back with AnyLogic to the very beginning: over ten years now. Ten years ago, AnyLogic was what I call the only industrial strength product that had a hope of doing both system dynamics, agent based, and discrete event in one package. As best as I can tell, it’s still the only package that has that capability. As we do more especially in the realm of agent based models, there are some open-source tools, but none of them has anything close to the functionality that AnyLogic does.

Banca d'Italia processes a certain amount of manual credit transfers every year. These transfers cannot be processed automatically and require two divisions of employees in the back office of the bank. The bank wanted to determine if merging these two divisions would be beneficial.

I participated both in Fundamentals and In-Depth training courses. Fundamentals course extremely practical! A very good hands on training experience with enough variety in the examples covered to get a holistic overview of all the main functions that are available in AnyLogic. It illustrates the multi simulation methods available in AnyLogic and how to integrate them into one model. In-Depth course covers selective advanced capabilities. Most of the topics are very useful (use of data bases, optimization experiments, traffic, pedestrian and rail library etc.) and some only useful in selective cases (e.g. additional windows, Java debugger). Course is very practical with hands on examples. I found in both training courses that the assistance of the training coordinator to be extremely helpful, not just in the training examples but also for advice on current projects. Both trainings are very adaptable to participants level and can be scaled according to individual's learnings speed as each participant progresses on their own.

The Novoportovskoye oil and gas condensate field is located in the Yamal peninsula and owned by Gazprom Neft, the fourth largest oil producer in Russia. Oil from the field is transferred via 100km pipeline to the sea terminal at Cape Kamenny, where it is loaded into arctic cargo tanks for further transportation. The main issues in planning tanker transportation in an arctic region are the harsh ice environment and difficult sea conditions.

Centrotherm Photovoltaics AG is a global supplier of technology and equipment for the photovoltaics, semiconductor, and microelectronics industries. The company needed to identify the best automated production line and factory configuration to minimize costs and maximize throughput and reliability.

A major US airline wanted to explore several options to generate new profits through ancillary products or changes to existing policies. Although the revenue generation through charging additional fees was apparent in the short term, prior to implementing a policy change, the airline opted to evaluate the long term perceived impact on brand equity, market share and customer loyalty.

AnyLogic at first seemed difficult but when put to use, proved useful and versatile, allowing me to build not only realistic and flexible base scenarios, but model alternative scenarios, using not only one simulation paradigm.

In 2008 there were three huge companies in the telecommunications market in Argentina. Each company wanted to enter the markets that they hadn’t covered yet, but the consequences of such actions had to be estimated. That’s why Telefónica decided to employ Continente Siete, a consulting company, to build a model of the market using AnyLogic multimethod simulation software.

In 2012, GE opened a new battery manufacturing plant in conjunction with the launch of an innovative energy storage business. GE’s exciting opportunity brought on many new challenges, such as increasing production throughput and yield under evolving processes and uncertainties, and reducing manufacturing costs in order to gain market share. The GE Global Research Center sought out a powerful and flexible tool to analyze, not just the specific process, but the manufacturing system as a whole.

I attended the training in Paris in March of 2013. Although the level of prior experience with simulation within the trainings group was quite mixed, the two trainers managed to address the problems and questions of each individual participant very well. The practical orientation of the training let the attendees experience the complexity of simulation. Besides the standard course material, the trainers took a lot of time to discuss the individual plans and tasks of each participant - which is of great help when trying to get a better idea of the feasibility of one's own simulation project. Very helpful and professional training!
