I guess I would like to see it become faster and more user-friendly. I think CPLEX is very flexible for different languages so maybe they can provide more detailed documentation on how to format a model in CPLEX, and how to output the solutions. It could provide some examples, some specific standard examples, which I think would be very helpful for beginners. I would also like to be able to receive feedback on why sometimes a problem gets solved easily and why sometimes it does not. If we had more insights into the problem structures we would know if we need to use the back end for some problems, or if we need to use other software or develop our own algorithms.

I try to use CPLEX for the supply chain optimization problem I think that the most valuable feature is the integer program. It is powerful. I haven’t used CPLEX for many years and I just recently used it again. I needed to familiarize myself with it again, refresh my knowledge of the interface…

What I like most about CPLEX that it can be called or it can work with many other applications. You can use it with AMPL, which is an application that I use frequently. You can call it, as far as I know from C++ or C#, which I did in the past. Then there's the OPLs suite that you can also use. What I like the most about it is you can actually have access to CPLEX through different interfaces. And the fact that it can effectively solve integer models, which, most of the time, that's what we deal with.
