Bentley Systems, Inc. is a developer and distributor of software solutions for infrastructure manufacturing, development, and maintenance sectors.

History

Bentley Systems was formally founded in 1987.^[1]

In May 2019, Bentley Systems, Inc. announced it had acquired Keynetix Ltd. and its KeyLAB software, noting that "the addition of Keynetix software expands Bentley's geotechnical offerings and accelerates Bentley's vision of enabling subsurface digital twins for infrastructure projects and assets."^[2]

Technology and products

KeyLAB, etc.

KeyLAB is an Excel-based laboratory information management system (LIMS) "built specifically for geotechnical and construction laboratories." The software features Microsoft Excel integration, allowing you to "easily customize worksheets and reports while staying in complete control of your laboratory data."^[3]

The company has a massive catalog of other non-laboratory software solutions for infrastructure design and construction. See the company's product page for more.

Features

The following feature list(s) is/are derived solely from public, freely-available online information the vendor provides. A lack of a "Y" does not necessarily mean that the product doesn't have that feature. The lack of a "Y" could mean:

the vendor chose to not put relevant feature information online despite its existence in the product.
the vendor chooses to make the feature information available only to those who create an account or call/e-mail.
the feature information exists online to the public, but a URL could not be found to cite the existence of the feature.
the feature does not exist for the product.

A vendor's product may receive more confirmed features with the addition of more public information to the vendor's site and/or by providing a URL to a page or document that can act as a citation for the existence of the feature. Prospective buyers are highly recommended to contact the vendor directly to verify features as this list isn't authoritative, and product upgrades and changes happen rapidly in some cases.
