I worked with all building design and analysis software.
Software like
1- etbes
1-Stad.Pro
4. Robot
5- ...
But software, in my opinion, is not important at all, but it is the intellectual strategy within the civil engineer that matters.
However, etabs software is very simple and easy to use. Simple toolbars make the design process very straightforward.
But if we make simple judgments on the number of users, we will find that the Stad software has more users.
It also accepts more offers in places like LinkedIn.
It is a relative question. For vertical concrete members, ETABS is the best option. For steel frames, Staad Pro. For horizondal members, SAFE is good. However, for all design, a logical thinking also follows the design.
ETABS IS GOOD & TO GET MOST ECONOMICAL DESIGN PARTICULARLY FOR HIGH RISE RC STRUCTURES. STAAD PRO IS GOOD FOR ANALYSIS & DESIGN OF STEEL STRUCTURES AND OTHER LOW RISE RCC STRUCTURES.
STAAD IS THE BETTER ONE BECAUSE IT IS FOR ALL KINDS OF STRUCTURE BUT ETABS IS A SPECIAL SOFTWARE FOR DESIGNING BULDINGS .
Etabs is a better structural software
StaadPRO is a better software when it comes to analysis and design of steel structures. there if flexibility in loading system and combinations but for reinforced concrete ETABS is more efficient and economic for use .
staad pro is best u can get report clearly for every beam and can identify mistake and correct it easily.etabs is used as finite element soft ware.
ETABS is good over staad pro if you are designing a reinforced concrete structure.The user interface is easy and the analysis values of RC structures are better and we get economical steel data from etabs compared to that of staad pro
