Ideal for manufacturers, engineers & designers, it is a cross channel platform that helps users create 3D/2D models and provides with simulation & visualization capabilities using advanced AR tools.
Revit software helps architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) teams design, document, visualize, and deliver architecture, engineering, and construction projects.
And the fact that Creo Illustrate can be used for technical illustrations is great - it allows me to create beautiful visuals with ease.
Bad product tree structure. Frequent data saving problems.
The Parametric Nature of the Software and the Design Intent is superb. Excellent for Solid Modelling ( drafting , part modelling, Assembly module, Detailing, Sheetmetal).
The Windchill software is very clunky and difficult to use. The online resources aren't easily searchable, and it can be difficult to learn.
The best part of this tool is that the complex geometries can be made easily and on top of it the sketching part is possible. The surfacing capability of this tool is also very robust and efficient.
Every single time it tries to assume something for you, it does it wrong. Why would I ever assemble objects by selecting surfaces that are NORMAL to each-other.
I find it great for whoever has a 3D printer and needs to quickly draw parts without the issues of handle parameters and constraints. So, quickness is another great advantage.
I've been using some form of Creo in multiple Jobs for 10+ years, and the only thing that it is able to do consistently is confuse and annoy me.
With great Autodesk help support and an active online community, you can always find solutions to any issue you may have. I have been recommending Revit to colleagues every chance I get.
Pesky errors (dimension line lost reference and it will not tell which).
Revit, especially with BIM 360 cloud storage, is an amazing asset to have when it comes to collaboration and sheet creation. We also love to use Enscape with Revit to produce our marketing material.
Requires company to create its own libraries of object. Built in libraries are beyond horrible.
This software is really very interesting because it allows to make good plan of house and city the fact that it has a free version is really good.
The downside of this software is the printing part.
My experience with the software is great because it help me to model my projects to show them to costumers.
This program is removed from the purchasing system and offered to users by leasing method. This method is much more costly for users.
Karee S.: Hi, my name is Karee and I am a STEM teacher. And I would give Creo a four out of five. And for more reviews like this, click the link below. We use Creo a [inaudible 00:00:13] third, fourth and fifth grade students to create virtual models. So they did 2D into 3D sketches, and then we were actually able to then 3D print their engineering designs and then test out their physical prototypes as well. Some things I really liked about Creo is, is a really professional software that was used in real world. I know a lot of actual engineers use Creo software. So if students actually ever decided to take those career fields, it'd be a product that a lot of professionals use, which was really great. And also, it created really high quality products for us to be able to 3D print. So even though we liked the software because it was professional and really high quality, some things that were difficult about it is it made harder for our younger students to use. It wasn't as kid friendly or intuitive, especially students that weren't used to using the mice and the certain tools. And there weren't as many tutorials in Creo as there were in other CAD softwares that might be a little bit more kid friendly. So even though we really liked using it, it was a great high quality product, it definitely was harder for our students to learn and use.
Greg: My name is Greg and I'm president and CEO of a design build company in San Diego, California. My rating for Revit is five out of five. Prior to using Revit, we were using Chief Architect, which did okay, but it was frankly unimpressive as far as the modeling in 3D and going over to Revit was a completely different experience that our customers love. The reasons we went over to Revit was because we wanted better modeling, better construction documents, and at the end of the day, we wanted a better presentation for our customers to see 3D and virtual walkthroughs so they could really see ahead of time what their construction or remodel is going to look like. So we consider Revit an enterprise program, so it does take a little bit of learning and setup, but once you're through that and you're up and running with the program, using it for construction documents and modeling, it definitely pays off and our customers love it. My recommendation, if you're considering Revit, is to make sure either you have someone on staff that's familiar with the program and can train others, or that you get support for setup and training so that you make the process as smooth as possible.
