Is MacroModel better/faster than program X?
There are a number of molecular modeling packages available; some from commercial sources, and some from academic sources. As far as we are aware no-one has ever performed a rigorous comparison of all available programs. Part of the reason for this is that the amount of the overlap between the various programs may be very small. Each of the available packages tends to have particular strengths and weaknesses which make it more suitable for certain types of modeling applications. Q1.
