PC SWMM vs XP SWMM vs DDSWMM
PC SWMM vs XP SWMM vs DDSWMM
(OP)
As the title suggests...
I would like to hear from people with experience in at least XPSWMM and PC SWMM about their take on the softwares. The local municipality will accept only DDSWMM but we would like to make a case for either PC SWMM or XP SWMM. All I have heard through the grapevine is that PC SWMM underestimates 1:100 storm runoff amounts. Not sure about the credibility of that comment, but insights related to that aspect or otherwise will be very helpful.

As a long time XP-SWMM user in the past, who's now paying for his own software, I'd use EPA-SWMM if I was forced to use anything. It's not amazingly intuitive, but honestly neither is XP-SWMM, and EPA-SWMM is free.
