GEOSYSTEM Soil Test Software Packages and gINT® Comparison Table

The page compares the features of two GEOSYSTEM soil test packages (LabSuite and Enterprise Suite) vs. the features found in Bentley's gINT® Pro. package.

This page compares our soil test reporting capability to that found in gINT Pro. To compare soil test reporting and boring log report capabilities, see this page instead.
