Staad Pro is the best in the world, but as one has said, you must know how the algorithm works, otherwise it will be useless, just as any other software, good bridge software should model and analyse geometrical non linearity and different materisls in the same analysis engine, therefore SAAP stands best to me and competes well with STAAD, but Saap has BriM, bridge Information Modellingwhich is quite easy to use.
