"Advanced software for modeling"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Tekla Structures?

I want to tell you that Tekla Structures can support large models with multiple simultaneous users, and also, the process of shop drawing creation is automated. So it's the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tekla Structures?

The visualizer is that we can not export the video, and I have to record the screen every time. When we talk about the configuration, it does require a high-end PC configuration, which is one thing I can say that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It doesn't save files by itself; there is an auto-save used for saving. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very flexible and versatile BIM software"
4/5
What do you like best about Tekla Structures?

I really like the ability to use the API to create custom plugins and components. This makes it easy to create exactly what we want and to output to our shop exactly how we need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tekla Structures?

Their drawing interface is improving, but still not as intuitive as some CAD programs. The navigation and selection tools have a bit of a learning curve if you're used to using the industry leaders in CAD technology. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"structural BIM software at its finest"
5/5
What do you like best about Tekla Structures?

I'll start off with support. At first, you get the training which is very useful although the modern UI design that also comes with a user manual makes modeling in Tekla Structures very easy. I used Revit, Archicad yet, Tekla is the best when it comes to modeling. Plugins & components catalog is very powerful when it comes to detailing rebars, girders, etc. What I like the most is it's UI design, really modern design and every year big updates! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tekla Structures?

I really don't dislike anything on Tekla Structures, support is very fast when it comes to questions. One, single thing that I dislike is that sometimes, Tekla Structures crash, it occurs 1 time a week, it's nothing serious, it's maybe just my problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Precast concrete and structural steel detailing with Tekla Structures"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Tekla Structures?

Tekla Structures is an extremely all-round software; very powerful and precise for precast concrete and structural steel. The out of the box endowment is very good and can be easily extended searching Tekla Warehouse. It's easy going user interface makes modelling smooth even if it takes some time to learn tips and tricks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tekla Structures?

What bothers me about Tekla Structure is the fact that if you are drawing and need to get some information in the model, you must exit the drawing mode first and then return to the drawing. This involves some waste of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Tekla structures, the vision for the mankind"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Tekla Structures?

The accuracy and timeframe can be achieved by this structural and architectural BIM software. The user interface is well versed and engineers can become an expert user of Tekla structures. The world is now all about making an architect's imagination and blueprint into a hi-tech building. Tekla structures stand for this to make it true. It has changed beyond all ways from the days of XSteel and for a new generation of engineers, fabricators, and contractors to achieve their aimed jobs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tekla Structures?

If the job involves a huge model and while working with the multiuser module, the process is slow and the time taken for saving is longer across onboard multiusers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"G2 tekla review"
5/5
What do you like best about Tekla Structures?

The generation of data files and drawings from the model. Plus the added bonus of reviewing the structure in 3D to see possible issues with other trades. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tekla Structures?

The cost, it is expensive to buy. Another issue is the regional license you have to have an enterprise license so that you could work on jobs for different regions of the world, also the cost for maintenance, if you are a small business all these add up to a very large overhead cost with the market nowadays you can really charge your client for. Wish there was a way to make the cost lower. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solve problems with Tekla"
5/5
What do you like best about Tekla Structures?

I like most that, I can make and direct the construction panels and the shop drawing for metal installations due to the large number of connections in those facilities, the distinguished user interface, and the ease of work Moodle. also, Tekla has advantages in the area of part numbering, which leads to higher control over the building and every part in it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tekla Structures?

sometimes design time may be lengthy. but its not a big problem at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
