Altair FM vs. JOpt.TourOptimizer Comparison Chart

Pros

• We used JOpt TourOptimizer at our vocational school to plan teacher visits to students during their mandatory internships.

JOpt handled this level of complexity very well. The solution produced realistic, efficient tour plans that were easy to understand and actually workable in practice.

In addition, the team at DNA was extremely supportive. They actively helped us set up the solution and answered our questions in a very practical and solution-oriented way.
