"Autoturn review"
4.5/5
What do you like best about AutoTURN?

It models the path of the turning very well for the entire length of the turn which is useful to see what it may and may not hit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AutoTURN?

I dislike the objects left behind when you make a turn. Often I would run Autoturn several times in the same drawing and the small objects left behind in the drawing can get annoying to remove. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I've used this program multiple times for various civil design projects."
5/5
What do you like best about AutoTURN?

The simplistic layout of all the tools. It's easy to navigate the various menus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AutoTURN?

This may just be with the version we have, but it's not compatible with Microstation V8i. And as far as I know there is no patch available for it to be so we have to run the program in V8 which is annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Don't use this as much as other products but a very useful tool"
4/5
What do you like best about AutoTURN?

The library of different vehicle types makes selecting the most sensible vehicle that will be accessing the finished site very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AutoTURN?

I dislike that when driving a vehicle through the site you are not able to stop and go back a step if you have gone in the wrong direction or something changes. The whole path needs to be redrawn and then the vehicle ran through again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Autoturn is very useful for roadway design!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about AutoTURN?

Ease in uploading a project and using different variables to visually see the answers to projects. It is nice to have a program that takes tedious manual-searching and continuous calculation out of the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AutoTURN?

Personally, the product runs a little slow on my computer. That could just be my problem, however. I also end up with quite a few files when I use the product, and I wish I could use multiple situations for one project file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Project Designer"
2.5/5
What do you like best about AutoTURN?

As a designer I really only use Autoturn for the bottom line issues i.e. what radius does my roadway/intersection need to have. I would say that I like how you can set the autoturn to be drawn exactly how you want, linetype, color, thickness, etc. So when plotted it looks how you want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AutoTURN?

I do not like that when a route has been drawn in say with a WB-40 truck, you cannot manipulate that route at all. If you have a somewhat large path of travel, you need to redraw the entire thing, even if just one turn needs manipulation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"AutoTurn user for about a year now."
3.5/5
What do you like best about AutoTURN?

I love how easy it is to navigate through all of the tools. The simple layout makes it very easy for the users (especially beginners like myself) to find the right options. I found the help menu very helpful when I do encounter issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AutoTURN?

The fact that it is not compatible with Micro Station V8i is frustrating. I am not sure if there is a patch available for this, but I haven't been able to find one on my own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Choice for Internation Work"
4/5
What do you like best about AutoTURN?

This is a very easy to use program, with a great interface. I enjoy the access to a large vehicle library that include domestic and international vehicles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AutoTURN?

I wish there were templates for reverse movements. I know this may be difficult, but I wish the product was move helpful in designing loading dock areas. Right now its very guess and check., I wish there were something move definitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Autoturn in Florida"
4.5/5
What do you like best about AutoTURN?

Autoturn comes with design vehicles but it is very simple to customize the design vehicle to specifications required by the client. The interactive vehicle control is useful for visualizing the vehicle path. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AutoTURN?

My experience with the this software is limited. The turning paths can seem augmented compared to real life situations but this is the design processs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
