- Schrödinger Molecular Modeling Platform - Small Molecule and Macromolecule Modeling and Simulations.
- Accelrys Discovery Studio - Accelrys and Symyx merged effective July 1, 2010.
- Rosetta Software Suite includes Modeling abilities and as a related package, there is PyRosetta - an interactive Python-based interface for Interactive Molecular Modeling.
- TINKER - Software Tools for Molecular Design.
- ModBase: Database of Comparative Protein Structure Models also allows users to calculate comparative models on demand.
- PyMOL is primarily a molecular viewer but allows some changes to be made. Schrödinger took over development of PyMol after Warren DeLano's unexpected passing on November 3, 2009
- Swiss-PDBViewer = DeepView, a powerful and popular free modeling package (not open-source). Has an interface linked to SWISS-MODEL.
- Modeller

- Symyx JDraw Applet - as they describe it: "In addition to accessing the no-fee Symyx Draw desktop application, students, teachers, and researchers working in a non-commercial setting can now access capabilities for rapidly drawing chemical structures and chemically intelligent queries in Web applications–capabilities built on industry-leading Symyx chemistry representation technology." Symyx Draw is similar to ISIS/Draw and has advanced features.
- The ISU CheMagic USM O=CHem Virtual Molecular Model Kit, as detailed here, uses CheMagic and the Jmol Virtual Molecular Model Kit & JME Molecular Editor enabling users to generate molecular models; user generated Jmol models can also be created using ACD/Labs’ ChemSketch.
- Jmol on its own now has some ability to be directly used as a chemistry modeling kit for small molecules and there is a responsive docking ability for moving/sculpting small molecules relative to large molecules in the works. * Similarly, using Jmol that can now read SMILES format, it was possible to connect Jmol to Chemene's JSDraw that will output SMILES to JMol for rendering, see the demo here.
- chemCanvas, an open source chemical diagram editor for making models of small molecules. Site about it is here.
- ChemAxon's Marvin Sketch and ChemDoodle has the ability to draw reactions and structures. And you can put chemistry on the web with Metamolecular's ChemWriter.
- ChemTube3D isn't for modeling but contains interactive 3D animations and structures of molecular reactions basic to chemistry.
- The Jmol Interface by Mike Evans at University of Illinois has a useful page for drawing arrows and making chemical structures in Jmol.
- iView - an interactive WebGL visualizer of protein-ligand complexes
- PrePPI: database of predicted and experimentally determined protein-protein interactions (PPIs) for yeast and human.

- List of software for molecular mechanics modeling at Wikipeida although thoroughness and how current it is are subject to question by the inclusion of RasMol which is simply a viewer with no modeling abilities that has been supplanted by better viewers such as Chime and Jmol not included on the list.
