About

OrbitNote allows you to transform and interact with documents in a completely different way. Create an accessible, dynamic and collaborative space that works for everyone. Teachers can easily convert printed text into a PDF with our one-click OCR scanning technology. OrbitNote then takes care of everything else, ensuring that students have access to the tools they need, such as text to speech, highlighting, vocabulary support and everything they need to succeed - across all class content. OrbitNote allows students to express their understanding in many flexible ways. They can type or draw their thoughts on the page, which can aid planning. Students can highlight the key points in a comprehension piece or to help with studying. Both teachers and students can use their voices to send thoughts and feedback, and finally students can add shapes and images to their work.

About

Orbital Stack is an AI and CFD web-based software that provides earlier qualitative guidance, comparing a large number of design options while highlighting any potential wind and thermal comfort red flags. It allows for the realization of a variety of climate-conscious, high-performance developments not previously feasible due to cost and/or time constraints associated with traditional studies. Orbital Stack is the first digital climate-analysis tool built by global leaders in wind and microclimate engineering using real wind tunnel data. It is truly a game-changer for the architecture and building design sector, offering our clients direct access to wind comfort and safety analysis, thermal comfort and shadowing analysis, and cladding pressure simulations. This means architects can run their own wind simulations and quickly understand the climate impacts of their proposed building designs from the start, making decisions that result in higher performing and more resilient projects.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • There are no pros, but at least there is something. The teachers are obsessed but students don't like it.
  • Automatic login is convenient not having to type in email all the time. However, it does lock you out from time to time.
  • None! We implemented it into the LMS and to my knowledge, it has not worked once for a single student/teacher for the entire year.
  • I do not have any pros to list for this product. It is one of the worst products I have ever had the disservice of even attempting to do a free trial for. If I could rate it zero stars or even somewhere in the negatives, I most certainly would.

Cons

  • Honestly, everything. The font size is messed up; it looks fine, but press backspace too much, and the size is massive. Also, the loading is so slow, and it deletes data randomly. Downloading is slow, and it makes you sign in so many times while also making you change permissions. It sometimes opens PDFs that you don't want, and it is just bad. Don't get why you would need it.
  • EVERYTHING. ELSE. I can't make copies of read-only documents anymore. I can't download, edit, or do anything with a PDF because it always needs the owner's password, when the owner is ME, and I didn't set a password!
  • Nothing! It has never actually worked for anyone!!
  • This program deletes random chunks of work from the fillable portions of PDFs. It does not allow individuals to pay for its use but does allow individuals to use the free trial version, immediately downgrading individuals as soon as the free trial period has ended. You then lose all ability to manipulate PDFs outside of highlighting, which is almost entirely unnecessary in regards to PDF editing. Even during the free trial, many of the features were incredibly glitchy - the program would allow me to insert text where I wanted to place it, then after I clicked away from the text box, the text would be sent to a random place in the document or disappear altogether. Text boxes would often duplicate or even triple themselves, causing a strange bold-type appearance to about half of the text in my document. OrbitNote actually deleted three months worth of work from a PDF I was actively using.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The user interface and visualizations of the results are pretty neat. The technical support team is quite responsive, and I find that my queries have always been resolved at the earliest.
  • Fast and easy to integrate to project with a wide range of options. Computational fluid dynamics is a hard problem to solve and they are solving this at scale!
  • Speed of simulation is good and allows for multiple iterations in a short amount of time. The user interface is web based, very intuitive and does not involve any specialized training allowing all the staff the ability to use the platform as needed. The output graphics are very interesting and help convey the problem areas quickly . The graphics can be adjusted for specific time period as needed. The tech support is good and response is within an hour if you encounter any problems.
  • Excellent tool; clear step by step process. Nice division between sets analysis. Nice interface, easy to step between options. Multiple ways to graphically show your analysis.

Cons

  • As the software is on the preliminary stages of operations, there are a few limitations if compared to similar programs available in the market. But, I am sure, they are constantly upgrading the engine for better user control and experience.
  • No download of data which makes it a bit hard to integrate to other tools.
  • There is need for more refined analysis which would be helpful in all phases of the project. Currently the AI part of the software is helpful in early stage wind analysis, when big massing moves are being made. However the results are less helpful in later phases of the project when you are making small changes e.g. increasing screen wall height from 4' to 6' etc. The software needs to allow for download of predicted windspeed and comfort data in spread sheet format. Currently this is not possible. The base AI package does not generate the wind flow lines. it would be helpful to get this data in the base package. Currently the wind flow lines are part of the higher tiered Rapid CFD package.
  • UX needs a bit of work at downloading the graphics content.
