"Modern, Comprehensive Solution for Hydrologic Analysis"
5/5
What do you like best about GeoHECHMS?

GeoHECHMS provides all of the external resources that could be necessary for a complete hydrologic analysis.

The original Army Corps of Engineers HEC-HMS software always seemed like an "old" software regarding its interface and features. GeoHECHMS upgrades it to a modern software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECHMS?

I have not used the software enough to discover its downsides. Compared to regular HEC-HMS, GeoHECHMS is an upgrade, and I haven't used any other software like it to compare it against. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Stormwater Modeling with Excellent Support"
5/5
What do you like best about GeoHECHMS?

Easy to use and works well modeling stormwater runoff from complete site grading. Much easier to use than the USCOE base program. Importing linework and grading surfaces from Civil 3D is easy to complete. CivilGeo support is very responsive and helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECHMS?

Does not provide a benefit when analyzing small sites. Referencing support files can get tricky when sharing with collegues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Hydrology Modeling with GeoHECHMS"
5/5
What do you like best about GeoHECHMS?

CivilGEO’s GeoHECHMS has been great to use. The layout is clear, the tools make sense, and it takes a lot of the hassle out of building and updating HEC-HMS models. It runs smoothly and genuinely saves time on projects. Overall, a solid, user-friendly bit of software that makes hydrology work easier. Excellent customer support and constant updates to improve the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECHMS?

Reaches are sometimes inaccurate on a design surface created with a very small cell size. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fabulous"
5/5
What do you like best about GeoHECHMS?

Can model both natural and urbanized watersheds. Supports mixed development watershed conditions.

Highly modular architecture allows for easy integration of hydrologic modeling needs and graphical Environment

Includes a user-friendly Watershed map visualization, data entry utilities. Its advanced Hydrologic Capabilities

Supports a wide range of hydrologic processes:

Infiltration (e.g., SCS Curve Number, Green)

Evapotranspiration, Baseflow and Channel Routing. We Can Add storge Capacity, Nodes, and

In Addition to its Interoperability, it works with other HEC software i.e., HEC-RAS). and uses data storage and retrieval, enabling integration with other hydrologic and hydraulic H&H models. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECHMS?

All models in HEC-HMS are deterministic, they assume exact knowledge of initial and boundary conditions.

This can limit realism in scenarios where uncertainty or probabilistic behavior is important.

Parameters are assumed to be time-stationary, they don’t change over time.

Simplified Flow Representation and it does not support complex networks in urban engineering systems. lack of advance urban pipe network features creates redundancies and uncertainties. For long simulations, parameters must be manually adjusted between segments. this creates time consuming issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very supportive staffing and accessible resources."
5/5
What do you like best about GeoHECHMS?

The most helpful is the staffing as well as the detailed error codes when running the software allows for efficient tried and error/ solving issues when they arise. I also appreciate that there are multiple ways to get the same function whether its the ribbon or right clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECHMS?

Some of the work flow is less straight forward and it is very sensitive to missing information/parameters. I would like it if the inputs where more guided instead of an iterative process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Civil Geo HMS Drainage Study Review"
5/5
What do you like best about GeoHECHMS?

The software is being helpful for Drainage Studies, within determining Basins and Sub basins as well as flow volumes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECHMS?

We still have the issue with entities that does not accepted some of the parameters of Civil Geo, so we still have wo work with HEC-1 and Flowmaster simultaneous with Civil Geo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effectively Helpful"
5/5
What do you like best about GeoHECHMS?

I really appreciate the program allowing the user to import shapes from dgn and allowing you to use those shapes to define your drainage area. It does not take much time to create the areas and junctions so that flows are created. Also, the reports are well written out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about GeoHECHMS?

Automate is good for an idea of what is out there but not for review. Other than that, I like the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
