On a different note, I would kindly suggest that you tone down your comments somewhat. Therefore, there would be little conflict related to that. I suppose, part of it could be that the internal architecture of the program was already set. But, that's why it was important to have someone like me working with them to make sure that the engineering side of it was handled correctly. The only drawback is they didn't know anything about structural engineering. They were good, smart people (smarter than I am for sure!). But, my experience with them was almost entirely positive. This was a much smaller group, of course, and had very little interaction with the developers who were re-writing RISA-3D for this new release. I worked with the Kiev group when I was the project lead for various releases of the RISAConnection program. I have to admit that I'm trying to figure out who you might be! Because for you to have inside knowledge of the "obstinacy and backwardness" of the Kiev group, I suspect that I may have worked with you in the past. Wow, I'm surprised to hear someone say something so. RE: RISA 3d v 18 - New format BUGGAR (Structural) 2 Sep 19 12:57 I sleep well at night knowing RISA is in good hands. Nemetschek is a very supportive parent, opening the door for many opportunities RISA could not have pursued as a stand alone company. Amber is a much better manager than I ever was, and she is taking RISA to the next level. Generally speaking, RISA has never been stronger. This new architecture is rock solid and may last another 20 years. Of course, Amber Freund, RISA Tech's CEO, also deserves a lot of credit for shepherding this behemoth across the finish line. Much credit to Debbie Penko for the look and feel of it, and to Mike Stoop, Christine Li and Alex, Yuriy and the Ukraine group for the hard work developing the code, as well as many others who've made big contributions. RISA-3D was way ahead of everybody else back then but I agree it is looking dated these days, being 22 years old now! The Win32 architecture (last iteration is Ver 17) was originally released in 1997 as I recall.
Thought I would throw my two cents in here. RE: RISA 3d v 18 - New format bootlegend (Structural) 23 Aug 19 16:57 Just sharing the aspects of this thread that are most interesting to me. That being said, I am not trying to trash RISA in any way here.
Therefore, I am no where near an unbiased observer. Also, I now have a job with a competitor. I was one of the people that was "pushed out" when new management took over. Statement of bias: I worked for RISA for 16 years starting in 2002 and was the former Vice President. If it is absolutely great then it would likely mean that new management has 'proven themselves' to the user base. Therefore, if this is a train wreck, then it tells you a lot about the downward direction RISA would likely take in future years. And, the programming was done by an entirely different group from overseas.
While this program was in development while I still worked there, none of the folks who were "pushed out" of RISA (when the new management fully took over) had much to do with this project. But,it is definitely a major change and it will be interesting to see what the user base thinks of it.ģ) This should be a really good way of judging the new RISA / Nemetschek management.
#Risa 3d demo software#
Especially, if the new sales restrictions (they refuse to sell the software anymore, but force you to rent it).Ģ) Didn't STAAD have a STAAD-X program / interface that was supposed to be the big new thing that no one ended up liking or using? My sense is that the RISA folks are "all in" on this interface more than the STAAD / Bentley guys were for STAAD-X. If this is a totally new interface that doesn't "feel" like the old RISA, then the effort spent learning the new interface could easily be spent learning a different program. So, if the interface is too different from the old interface, that may take away any barrier for existing users to switch to another program. My thoughts:ġ) The biggest issue for most users when switching to a new software is learning a new interface. It will certainly be interesting to see how this shakes out.
