"Solving my mesh and improving the Quality Stress Distribution"
What do you like best about Altair Hypermesh?

Easy to mesh with basic understanding and to summarise the elements and nodes. Ease of implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altair Hypermesh?

All good at the moment. Speed of solver inbuilt can be added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Tool for Design works in Additive Manufacturing"
What do you like best about Altair Hypermesh?

We used this software for our academic project, which deals with FEA and optimization under static loading conditions. At first, we tried analysis using another tool, but the amount of weight reduction and mesh quality was not very good. What we notice about our user experience is that the meshing and optimization are excellent. This software can frequently build a high-quality tetra mesh quickly and effortlessly, even for highly complex geometry. They also offer several options to regulate the mesh's outcome. Additionally, the weight loss and iteration count were significant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altair Hypermesh?

UI is complex, and API is also not that user-friendly.

Requires high-end Laptops to get results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best for meshing"
What do you like best about Altair Hypermesh?

With new surface it's more accessible to clear CAD geometries, mid-surfaces, and meshes. Much easier to use without pressing ctrl all the time. Also, we can drag leave files to open them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altair Hypermesh?

Some commands are not working well sometimes, for example, cross extend and extend. And it crashes more often than old surface so you need to save your work at least every hour. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Most versatile software for mashing and analysis post processing"
What do you like best about Altair Hypermesh?

It has a good number of varieties of solver supports. My favorite is optistruct, which I use for mashing, load setup, analysis and automated optimization of designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altair Hypermesh?

The user interface still looks like ancient technology. The features are unique but could have been presented more aesthetically and ergonomically for the endusers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"High-Speed software for preparing finite element simulations"
What do you like best about Altair Hypermesh?

Altair Hypermesh offers a complete range of tools for preparing, bringing in, and handling simulation models, such as mesh creation, model configuration, result analysis, and more Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altair Hypermesh?

This is expensive software, particularly for individual users. Also, this software is incompatible with the older operating system and requires a large amount of memory and a high-end graphics card. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Analysis Engineer/ User Comments"
What do you like best about Altair Hypermesh?

Altair hypermesh is more stable more than hyperworks so using it is more comfortable and correct.Additionally, Hypermesh provides correct mesh models about my studies and works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altair Hypermesh?

Altair hypermesh is slower than altair hyperworks so using it sometimes be boring, because it gets more time according to altair hyperworks. As a result of these it tires me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Altair Hypermesh is the preferred tool for preprocessing for FE models across various industries."
What do you like best about Altair Hypermesh?

It offers a user friendly platform for meshing which is simple and easy while offering all the features required for detailed modeling Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altair Hypermesh?

There have been multiple versions of hypermesh released by altair recently which at times dont sinc with each other well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good for meshing & model preparations but lags in terms of of User Experience"
What do you like best about Altair Hypermesh?

Hypermesh is economical in terms of cost compared to its peer ANSA. Hypermesh is integrating new features into its interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altair Hypermesh?

It has number of bugs. Sometimes session gets crashed without allowing to save crash file. In each new release of Hpermesh new issues are seen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Hypermesh is user-friendly Software"
What do you like best about Altair Hypermesh?

Batch meshing,and the recently used dummy position tool is the best.

recent 21 version which has all the software in single click. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altair Hypermesh?

Few bucks are still there like sets associted with rigid element in LS dyna software is not working .

it is working fine in Nastran Solver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Variety of options as a pre-processor"
What do you like best about Altair Hypermesh?

The matter that Hypermesh can work as a preprocessor for so many solvers is really amazing. I personally use it as a pre-processor as a CAE Modeller for defining constraints and boundary conditions and then use that file with any other software solver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Altair Hypermesh?

The user interface is not very user friendly but the tab layout is thought through before assigning the location and makes the software a little easier to use for new CAE Modellers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
