Currently, HYENA+ users enter pipe networks line by line in the Pipes table, typically using a sketched node diagram as a visual check to ensure all nodes and pipes are captured correctly. We’re streamlining this workflow so you can draw your node diagram directly on an isometric canvas in HYENA+, and it will automatically populate...
One request we’ve heard a few times from CAMEL+Cnect users is to reduce the Revit experience and model preparation needed before starting the workflow. The new CAMEL+Cnect Room Editor lets you adjust HVAC zoning directly inside CAMEL+Cnect, with no pre-editing of your Revit Spaces required. What you can do in seconds: Merge and split...
Are you on the fence about whether CAMEL+Cnect is worth the investment? Our new ROI Calculator gives you a quick, evidence-based estimate of the time and cost savings you can expect to achieve. Why we built it Setting up projects manually in CAMEL+ takes time – measuring off drawings, entering room data, consolidating windows and walls....
Currently, CAMEL+Cnect relies on Revit Spaces being set up correctly in the model before starting the CAMEL+Cnect workflow. This can require a level of Revit experience, and becomes a challenge if zoning changes need to be made after the workflow has already begun. To make this process easier, we’re introducing the new Cnect Room Editor....

The user interface for HYENA+ is much cleaner and more user friendly than the UI used for the original HYENA program. This makes the experience more enjoyable, easy, and less taxing when using the program for long periods of time. HYENA is an excellent tool to have and its now web-based nature with HYENA+ has allowed it to become even more beneficial. – M. Cummings

The support from head office has always been quick and accurate, with a resolve to overcome any obstacles. We have always found the outputs to be accurate and reliable and a good basis for good engineering design. – Shayne C
Moving to a cloud based platform has improved the overall performance of the software. [being able to log in from any device] has improved my overall productivity as I only need to carry my smart phone or a tablet, and I can do my job remotely. Tools and functions are clearly organised within the new interface reducing any confusion for a new user. Copy+ Paste option saves a lot of time for Engineers like me. It just works like an Excel Sheet, where you can copy items and paste them somewhere else. It saves a lot of time especially if you are working on a single project and you want to do multiple calculations. [HYENA+] allows me to quickly switch from one calculation to another without losing any data. This has reduced the overall lead time in doing calculations. I am sure [HYENA+] will have a positive impact on the Fire Industry. – Ahkil M
