Job monitoring tools provide full access to the solver transcript, a graphical view of convergence parameters and real-time access to debug information when help is needed.

You can also view a summary of your simulation jobs via a web-based cloud portal, which can be accessed from your desktop or mobile device. Using the cloud portal, you can track total consumption of AECs and AHCs, and even share your simulation jobs with your peers and Ansys support.

Improved visibility of usage for admin users: Company admins now have access to usage data via analytics.

Innovative post-processing technology leaves the heavy data in the cloud, transferring only requested information to you for 3D rendering in your web browser via custom post-processing tools — to deliver performance that is unmatched for all size models.

You can plot scalar and vector fields and visualize results on existing parts, planes, isosurfaces and isovolumes. When needed, download the data to your desktop for detailed post-processing using your familiar desktop applications. Alternatively, you can also perform full post-processing directly in the cloud using in-browser interactive sessions to access workstation-class performance and full Ansys software capabilities, without having to transfer data locally.

Enables periodic copying of files from an interactive virtual machine to cloud storage while a job is running. Portal file management enhancements support copy/cut/paste and rename.

  • Access the Admin controls from the Ansys Cloud portal without a Cloud Essential Subscription.
  • Manage user groups and company projects.
  • Control simulation costs by allocating budgets to projects and tracking usage.
  • Assign Cloud Storage subscriptions to users for more control over additional Ansys Cloud storage.
  • Enriched Job-Sharing Capabilities. Share jobs/sessions with:
  • User groups for efficient collaboration in the cloud.
  • Ansys support for debugging.
Submit custom batch jobs using the Generic Solver Template via the Ansys Cloud portal.
