The honest half
Where it falls short
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Hexagon PPM Mining.
- Pricing is custom and not publicly transparent, requiring direct negotiation with sales teams
- Block model management traditionally lacked version control and audit trails, though the new Block Model Manager addresses this
- Manual configuration of pit optimization scenarios is time-consuming and limits the ability to evaluate multiple scenarios quickly
- Implementation and adoption require significant training due to the breadth of modules and complex workflows
