Calcs.com Reviews & Product Details

The wooden and steel beam calculators are delightful. I especially like selecting the wood species for my beam and clearcalcs automatically loading all of the relevant material properties so I don't need to look them up in the NDS. The steel beam calc, wind load and shear wall calcs and retaining wall calc are also amazing! All the calculators are much more user friendly than other programs/excel sheets I have used in the past.

Annual subscription fee is a little high but well worth it for this excellent package. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the load linking that allows the various calculations to update based on a change to any one of the other calculations. I also love the ease of use and the huge selection of beams, woods, GLB's, LVLs etc.. Also, the built in hanger and hold down selection too is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is sometimes tough to know how to use some of the tools to solve real world problems. I would love more videos showing how to use the tools applied to real projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At the same time, it is somewhat difficult to organize a project if you have many members on each level. I would like to see project organization improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ClearCalcs puts highly powerful FE analysis for many residential and general structural applications at my disposal without complicated tier-pricing models and difficult to install setup files. It is an all around solid staple that allows me to analyse and report my analysis in a quick and efficient manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Coming from different softwares, ClearCalcs will take a bit of getting used to as its interface is not quite the same as other similar design softwares. However the intuitive user experience design means I don't have to spend many dedicated hours trying to learn how to use the software to benefit from it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
