    Frequently Asked Questions

    Why should I choose Modelon Impact over other system simulation tools?

    Global companies of all sizes use Modelon Impact as their preferred system simulation tool. One reason is because Modelon Impact is a cloud-based tool. This means that users can access powerful simulation solvers where they have internet access. This also means engineering teams that are spread across different locations can collaborate on designing systems much more easily than with traditional system simulation tools. 

     Second, the components and models that our users need to get started come pre-configured and validated within Modelon’s libraries. Modelon’s modeling libraries cover multiple domains and have been trusted by customers for more than a decade. Through tight collaborations with customers, our experts have created content for relevant trends in each industry vertical that Modelon supports. Modelon Impact Pro users have access to all Modelon content.  

     Another reason why companies select Modelon Impact is because it’s built on open standards. This means that Modelon expects and encourages its users to export and import models so they can be used in conjunction with other engineering tools, such as in-house and 3rd party modeling platforms and workflows. Additionally, Modelon Impact is useful for engineers wanting to take the insights from their system models outside their immediate team. Modelon Impact makes it easy to share models with an intuitive UI called App Mode that non-modeling experts can interpret and run.  

     Lastly, Modelon values efficient and personable customer support. Each customer is assigned a dedicated representative to help them with their tool onboarding, adoption, and support. Customers also have direct access to Modelon’s industry experts who can guide them on approaches to take for specific system simulation challenges.

    Does Modelon Impact integrate with other tools in my toolchain?

    Yes, easily integrate Modelon Impact into your existing in-house and commercial tools via REST APIs. Directly access the Modelica code behind your models, run notebooks, and script simulations directly from the pre-installed JupyterLab environment. In addition, import and export models as FMUs – a model file exchange type built upon the Functional Mockup Interface standardized format.

    What experience or education do I need to use Modelon Impact?

    In our experience, customers that have a strong understanding of system modeling leads to a fast path to success with Modelon Impact. In addition, the required experience or education depends on your specific use case and application. 

    But don’t worry, we’re here to help!

    Modelon offers a variety of services and training courses to help users get the most out of Modelon Impact. Our customer support teams are located globally, making support requests a quick and reliable process. Modelon also provides comprehensive documentation and guides within the  Modelon Help Center to guide users through the modeling and simulation process in Modelon Impact.  

    How does Modelon protect client data?

    Modelon Impact ensures exclusive access to user content. If content is shared between users, it is done through their own external code versioning system and access permissions are granted accordingly. Communication between Modelon Impact’s cloud server and users’ web browser is always encrypted, but Modelon recommends exercising caution when sharing important company or personal data. To ensure security, Modelon Impact uses HTTPS for all services, regularly audits its implementation, and never stores customer passwords

    How is Modelon Impact priced?

    Modelon’s software pricing depends on the a few things. A Modelon Impact license price includes Modelon Managed Cloud operating fees (compute and data storage) for each customer. The rest of Modelon’s software pricing incorporates the following factors:

    • How many users need to access Modelon Impact. Modelon Impact licenses are assigned to named users. For licensing, all Modelon Impact Base and Modelon Impact Pro users will be named users
    • How many external apps will be connected to Modelon Impact via API (a shared pool for any app user).
    • How many extra computational cores are used for running experiments (a shared pool for any user).

    Modelon also provides two different add-ons: the Deployment Add-On and the Productivity Add-On. The Deployment Add-On allows customers to connect and run external applications with the Modelon Impact API. The Productivity Add-On allows users to distribute large simulation experiments to multi-core servers.

    Modelon Impact and its add-ons are sold on a subscription basis. Your sales representative will discuss various plan options available for your organization.
