Geotab allows for quicker field logging, giving field staff more time to assess the soil rather than writing down the description. It offers built-in descriptors and custom entries that can be saved and reused in other logging programs, allowing quick incorporation of site-specific term. Developing borehole logs with Log is simple after importing Geotab information. Sobek’s support quickly answers questions when working with the software and encountering challenges, allowing AM2 to focus on engineering inputs rather than spending time to figure out how to change style aspects or data inputs.

I am very satisfied with the quality and services offered by SOBEK. Their response times are very quick and their explanations are clear and structured. The Geotec suite makes it easy to represent results of field investigations by producing borehole logs with LOG, laboratory results with LAB or even stratigraphic sections with PRO. The software is very good and, once you have played around with the interface, there are so many possibilities available to us!

The Geotec Log software from Sobek is, in our opinion, the gold standard for borehole logging software. Metro Testing and Engineering switched from gINT to Geotec at the beginning of 2023 and have been very pleased so far. While we have found several aspects which we prefer over our previous software, we have been particularly impressed with three primary improvements: developer support, customization, and work flow optimization options.

Technical support from developers at Sobek has been incredible. From private training sessions, to helping build a borehole log template, to the quick and efficient email replies helping with small problems throughout workflows. Our team has felt supported since day one and have thoroughly enjoyed the process of getting to know the software more and more.

Another aspect of Geotec that we’ve found incredibly useful is the software’s ability to be customized. Both of our Geotechnical and Environmental divisions have created personalized borehole log templates showing exactly the information we want to show and have the ability to change things as required. While some customization features are not initially intuitive, with the support of the development team an email away and consistent software setting options, we’ve found the ability to customize a critical advantage of Geotec.

With any team, different people find their own favourite way to complete tasks. We found that Geotec Log has many features to allow achieving the same task through different avenues. For example, entering borehole data can be completed through several slightly different built-in forms, each with their own advantages, allowing the user to choose the way they want to work. Additionally, data can be entered in Excel and then imported directly to the software.

Generally, the friendliness of the folks supporting the software and architecture of the program’s features has made Geotec a staple of our workflow and a truly enjoyable experience for our team.

Sobek Technologies offers impeccable customer service. The employees strive to find the best solution to the problems that arise during a project. The Geotec software system offers the users the possibility to enter a large amount of information. In addition, all the types of laboratory analyses are well illustrated with graphics as well as the dynamic penetration test, the groundwater level, the piezometer and the vane test. The style files are adapted to each client and we have the possibility to create one to our image. The final product of the logs is very representative of the reality and the employees at Sobek Technologies are always ready to improve the program in collaboration with their customers.

What I appreciate the most about Geotec is the great versatility of the application. Being able to keep our geotechnical, geological and environmental data in a single database is a net advantage for us. What I appreciate the most about Sobek is the service. The very high level of knowledge, the courtesy and the timeliness of the responses to our questions or requests allow us to accomplish our projects even more efficiently.

Geotec simplifies the tasks of data management and data output. In our field, we have to manage a mass of data about borings. With Geotec, once the data are entered in the database, we can use them as we please and produce outputs that appeal to the project managers. When we have a problem or a question, the support of Sobek Technologies is impeccable and very fast. Sobek always finds a solution if we encounter a problem.

Geotec is a very powerful software that easily adapts to our different needs and to the various requirements of our clients. The customer service is outstanding and highly personalized.
