Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Comsol allows for creating physics simulations in a large variety of fields (from acoustics, to electromagnetics, to thermal applications, to fluid dynamics, to semiconductor physics, to.... you name them). The overall capabilities of Comsol Mutiphysics are pretty much endless as soon as you have to solve differential equations. Its GUI is really nice and is more intuitive than some other alternatives such as Abaqus.

Cons

  • At first it can be very intimidating and overwhelming. Deciding what "physics" you want to solve, setting up your first simulation, customizing your equations, calculating specific physical quantities, testing for convergence, ... This is true for most of the specialized software, but because of the multiphysics component, it can be daunting to get started with this particular software suite. To me, the most negative aspect is the customer support. I've been conducting research in my field for over 15 years and I've used multitude of software, from open source to commercial packages, and Comsol has the worst technical support of them all. Several years ago, I interviewed for a senior application engineer position at Comsol, and I was told by the senior managing engineer who was interviewing me two things that made me reject the offer they made: 1) that the company "does not care about academia because academic license are cheap and do not bring in money" (as opposed to industry) and 2) "Engineers at Comsol are not suppose to help people with their particular technical problems, they are here to refer the customer to online resource that already exist".

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • 1. Excellent team of engineers who can support round the clock! 2. I have had a pleasant experience working with UberCloud's team members who have always helped me solve issues with our computational tasks 3. UberCloud built an amazing HPC tool for our highly complex simulations that collapsed our run time by 100 fold and that has been a boon to our acoustic team 4. UberCloud consistently improves user experiences by adding features to their software (e.g., resource monitoring tool, text alerts for active clusters to name a few) that has increased our productivity 5. They have a dedicated software expert, who can understand your issue pretty well and can offer solutions in no time. The weekly Q&A sessions setup by UberCloud with their software experts helps address our questions quickly in addition to learning new techniques.
  • UberCloud makes it super easy to move existing simulation software applications to the public cloud. With UberCloud's browser-based application, your engineers can create a flexible HPC cluster with a click. You don't need to worry about cloud security or cost management as your HPC cluster will be secured and optimized by UberCloud.
  • Completely Automated environment Bring up and tear down of infrastructure in a matter of minutes Containers with pre-installed HPC software provides an environment that is ready to use by engineers Provides the ability to scale up or down the number of nodes in the environment dynamically

Cons

  • Happy with the services offered by UberCloud! Nothing to point out so far!
  • UberCloud support was great, I can't think of any issues.
  • Not all schedulers are natively supported yet Level of support varies by cloud provider
