Main reasons:
1. Engineers mainly focus on design and development. The simpler the computer software operation, the better. Relatively speaking, ALGOR is much easier to learn and use.
2. Usage: In my opinion, ANSYS is not very suitable for engineers. It is especially suitable for universities and some professors engaged in scientific research to make scientific research papers and achievements. ANSYS has a good advantage in this respect. ALGOR is widely used in foreign projects, and there are many research papers about ANSYS in China.
3. Learning: ALGOR spends much less time on learning, while ANSYS learning is much more complicated.
In my use and communication with you, I feel that learning finite element analysis software should be based on my own development direction. ALGOR and ANSYS have been developed abroad for decades, and the maturity of the software is no problem, and it is certified by an international authority. The emphasis of each software is different, mainly because it is suitable for which one to use, which is the most important thing.
