Overview

What Seequent Central does

Seequent Central is a cloud-based collaboration and data management platform that enables geoscience teams to work together on geological models and subsurface data. It provides version control, audit trails, and secure data sharing for Leapfrog and other Seequent products. Central helps mining and exploration companies maintain data integrity and streamline collaboration across distributed teams.

What people use it for

  • Centralised version control and audit trails for geological models
  • Shared 3D visualisation of Leapfrog and Oasis montaj models across distributed teams
  • Project branching for scenario modelling
  • Mining exploration and geothermal project coordination
  • Civil engineering and environmental projects needing a single model of record

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 Seequent Central.

  • Cloud hosted on Microsoft Azure and requires an internet connection, with no offline or self-hosted option
  • Hosting instances start at a minimum 500GB of storage, with more sold as an add-on
  • Billing splits into three separate lines: cloud hosting per organisation, user subscriptions per person and Leapfrog Connector licences per modeller
  • Publishing models from Leapfrog into Central requires a separate Leapfrog Connector licence
  • Value depends on already owning other Seequent tools such as Leapfrog, GeoStudio, PLAXIS or Oasis montaj
