**What do you like best about Ansys Polyflow?**

The capabilities of ANSYS Polyflow are staggering with the amount of information it can handle in regards to generating a mesh and calculating what is needed for a reverse extrusion problem.

**What do you dislike about Ansys Polyflow?**

The UI is not very intuitive or user-friendly. There is little to no indication when the program is loading something so it is very easy to crash it by mistake. It also is rather time-consuming to run due to the amount of calculations involved and still crashes on occasion because of it.

**What problems is Ansys Polyflow solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We were using ANSYS Polyflow to generate what die shape would be required in rubber extrusion. There are still some "common sense" modifications that have to be made to the final shape Polyflow generates, but

  ### 2. A very good user friendly software for numerical simulation of structural components
