Other DAWs besides Mixbus that do actual "simulated analog summing" inside the actual mixing engine are Studio One with its MixFX engine and Universal Audio's LUNA with their Neve, API, Studer and ATR extensions. These are the only ones I am aware of.
I have not tried LUNA because I am not on a Thunderbolt Mac, but I have the Studio One CTC-1 and I don't really care for it - I much prefer Mixbus, especially when combined with Softube Console 1 on every channel/bus.
No plugin can match what these technologies do because these DAWs' summing is fundamentally implemented at the mixing/summing stage and not just another linear plugin in the chain on individual channels.
