SAP2000 has lot more capabilities than Sframe.

As far as ease of use, Sframe beats SAP2000 by miles.

If you're in a line of work where the structural analysis is very limited, then a smaller program may be your best bet.

If your work requires much general structural analysis and more sophisticated analysis then SAP is the best choice.
