GeoHECRAS Reviews & Product Details

I enjoy GeoHECRAS features over RASMapper because it is more intuitive and has more capabilities. It is easier and faster to build 1D and 2D models in Geo. The interface is also more user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While it is possible to export and import HECRAS models into Geo, they often change enough that troubleshooting is required. I would expect a little more continuity between the programs. I would also like if Geo ran the most up to date versioning of HECRAS. The most recent update also has a few glitches in the 2D that I've noticed, such as boundary condition lines disappearing between saves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GeoHECRAS is highly regarded for its user-friendly interface, which makes it accessible to both newcomers and experienced users working on hydraulic and floodplain modeling projects. Its straightforward implementation allows organizations to deploy the tool rapidly, without the need for extensive training or complicated setup. Another key aspect is the customer support—Civil GEO's team consistently delivers excellent service and is available whenever assistance is needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main problem I've encountered is that after working on a model for several hours, the software becomes noticeably slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My favorite thing about GeoHECRAS is the ability to visualize large sets of data over a large area. The program is user friendly and can be easily learned using the helpful videos they have on their website. Their customer service team is also great whether its about purchasing the software or when handling specific engineering questions. They're always eager to help.

The only downsides of using GeoHecRAS is that sometimes, with larger sets of data, it can take quite a while to run the models. Also I wish that there was a way to plot all profiles in one click, rather than having to do each one individually. Overall, great product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Every time I use GeoHECRAS I learn something or find another tool that saves me time in my hydraulic analyses. I've found that not only does this software reduce our time analyzing hydraulics, but it also makes it easier to teach young engineers how to model hydraulics because it's more, dare I say, fun. The visuals and easy-to-navigate command ribbons make it easy to find what we need to model. GeoHECRAS includes many features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to see GeoHECRAS be able to output all cross-section geometry data (STA & elevations namely) concisely. I think that this would save some time during certain modeling scenarios that come up more frequently than I used to assume. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In GeoHECRAS, there are many features that make it easy to obtain the information required for most standards. When you have a question or trying to understand the features that are implemented, the program have a question mark that will direct you to their Knowledge website that will give you a brief description on what the function is used for. If you still have questions about the program or any issues, the engineering team is always responsive in reasonable amount of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Saving is sometimes an issue, especially when working on larger projects. It is inconvenient that we need to save everything on local drive then archive or save as onto your shared drive. Every other feature has been amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how much GeoHECRAS simplifies the modeling process for my LOMR's. It also brings a variety of tools together in one (StreamStats, NLCD, Elevation data, etc.) which helps things come together quicker and easier. I also really appreciate their customer service. They have also been very responsive when I had a question and hosted several video meetings/trainings to get me more comfortable with the software. I also like the layout of the tools. I think it's pretty intuitive if you're used to Civil 3D or GIS programs. Much more friendly than the base HECRAS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At one point I was having an issue with my license for the software, but GeoHECRAS support was able to fix it quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very intuitive and clean UI and it generates very useful result images and animations. Additionally, the service team is always available and willing to help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to be able to keep the models on the company network rather than having a local model. Also, seems that bugs show up every now and again - but usually this is resolved with downloading a new version of the model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Quick and easy to set up large flood models, with straightforward rain-on-grid analysis and plenty of options for different rainfall event types. The mapping is also excellent, with clear time-series flood displays that make results easy to interpret. Brilliant customer support and constant updates to the software to keep improving things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When working with large terrain surfaces, elevation adjustments can be slow and often require creating multiple copies of the surface for each change. The flood mapping also can’t filter out shallow nuisance flooding, as there’s no option to set a minimum display depth. Culvert modelling can be fiddly as well, with weir elevations not always matching the underlying cell elevations, leading to extra manual input. It would also be helpful if the infiltration and Manning’s HDF layers were easier to modify directly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface for GeoHECRAS is much friendlier to the average user than the base HEC-RAS program. The integration they have with many agencies such as NRCS and Web Soil Service creates a one stop shop for my modeling needs. Overall, it makes my modeling much quicker, easier, and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would say the only issue I have with GeoHECRAS is that it is hard to keep up with the amount of updates they push out and how quickly they do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

GeoHECRAS is an interface that allows you to combine GIS, CAD, and HEC-RAS into one product. I like that I am able to use one program as opposed to three to do my job. I like how efficient it is and how that does not mean that it is less accurate. GeoHECRAS is a visual aid to all modeling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I dislike about GeoHECRAS is that when it lags it lags, but that does not happen often. In addition, the support team at GeoHECRAS is very quick to address any issues you are having with the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
