Hidden Pricing

2.4 /5 composite score

RF1 keeps C1 2/5 because pricing is quote-only, and C2 2/5 reflects Ruby scripting plus Autodesk-linked simulation endpoints rather than a broadly accessible standalone API or CLI. C4 3/5 reflects GIS, SHP, and CSV workflows with INP export, and C5 3/5 reflects ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Online, Autodesk Water Infrastructure, and AutoCAD integration.

Alternatives in Hydraulic & Process Simulation

EPA SWMM

Free, public-domain stormwater, wastewater, and combined sewer system simulation model by the US Environmental Protection Agency -- dynamic hydrology-hydraulic-water quality simulation for single-event or continuous modeling of rainfall-runoff, pipe/channel routing, green infrastructure/LID controls, and pollutant loads; the industry-standard computational engine used worldwide for drainage design, CSO/SSO mitigation, floodplain mapping, and regulatory compliance (NPDES, CMOM, TMDL).

3.4/5

EPA EPANET

Free, public-domain water distribution system modeling software by the US Environmental Protection Agency -- performs extended-period simulation of hydraulic and water-quality behavior within pressurized pipe networks (pipes, pumps, valves, tanks), tracking flow, pressure, water age, chlorine residuals, and contaminant transport; provides a C Programmer's Toolkit (DLL with 50+ functions) for custom integration; the industry-standard computational engine underlying most commercial water-distribution modeling packages worldwide.

3.4/5

Autodesk InfoWorks ICM

Integrated catchment modeling software for stormwater, wastewater, and flood network analysis -- 1D/2D hydraulic and hydrologic simulation, cloud or local compute, collaborative scenario management, and rule-based network design for sewer and stormwater engineers at utilities and engineering consultancies.

3.0/5

Bentley WaterGEMS

Water distribution system modeling and simulation software for hydraulic analysis, water quality modeling, fire flow analysis, energy management, and pipe network calibration -- part of Bentley's OpenFlows portfolio, serving municipal water utilities and engineering consultants.
