Built to support construction project teams, including, general contractors, construction managers, project managers, superintendents, subcontractors, architects, engineers and owners.
RIB CostX is perfect for quantity surveyors, estimators, and other construction consultants looking for error-free results in significantly less time than traditional takeoff and estimating methods.
Nice organization of files and settings. Great integration with other programs like Revit.
The cost for this software is absolutely outrageous. The value is just not there for the monthly fees this company charges.
Plangrid is good in making reports and planning. I always use this and it always gives me great and good template.
The worst for us was the high cost of the program, which demanded more financial resources from us.
It's easy to use and sync really well with other apps in real time, the reports are very accurate and help our clients to be in top of their budgets so their projects can be a really success.
Customer service is unable to provide support and is RUDE when you do get a hold of someone.
I like the reports function that automatically reminds subs of outstanding items. You can customize reports depending on needs and this saves time from not having to send out a bunch of emails.
The BIM 360 Document Management is very confusing to work in that I avoid it at all costs as much as possible.
Excellent customer support and follow up to ensure the best service is provided and maintained to resolve any issues found or queried.
Lack of ability to complete cut and fill exercises. The only real downside is the inability to handle drawings in batches and without having to load them individually to edit their properties.
After care in terms of technical support for the product has been superb, which is vital when adopting such software as your mainstay for measuring or estimating.
Problems include operating over a centralised server, once down affects everyone.
It has great functionality and provides accurate take-offs. The PDF functions are a bliss and simplifies the process considerably as well as saving time.
Requested training and was made feel incompetent. Had the software for 24hr and request a refund and was declined.
Ability to have open drawings in more screens. Ability to quickly update the building templates with ease.
The performance is usually delayed when you have to switch to another dimension group to see up to where we measured already.
Prateek: Hi, my name is Prateek. I work as an assistant project manager and I give a rating of four out of five for the Autodesk Construction Cloud. For any more reviews, click below, please. When I started working, I used the AutoCAD, which is a two dimensional stuff, but we were having troubles in overlaying and doing stuff. It was only two dimensional and we didn't feel that's the right tool for us to handle the meetings. When I saw this Autodesk Construction Cloud, it has a 3D option where we can basically conduct our meetings and look at the overlaid layouts in a three dimensional thing. So we switched up from a regular AutoCAD, which is a 2D to this Autodesk Construction Cloud, which is very helpful. It can hold a lot of data because the CAD files, with which you have, the DWG files are very large and it has the ability to hold it. And the review time is very quick. It's not like... Generally AutoCAD is slow when you scroll it or zoom it and this one is easily accessible, user-friendly, and it can be reviewed very quickly. So that's the second thing. And the third thing is this can be used on the site by the field management as well, to access exactly and compare it to the onsite location. How it works and how it looks. And they're able to take the dimensions and measurements from this cloud. So this is very helpful for the field teams. So we took this for the field team to coordinate, in a right way, with the subcontractors on site. We started with a project on it. Let's say, I didn't buy the license for everything, but once I started using it on one project, it made a mark off itself because the owners were happy. The clients were happy to use it. And the clients were looking forward to see the actual site conditions based on the layouts here. So it was easy for us to handle meetings with the engineers and the architects and showcase the software. And it was also very helpful for us if there was any discrepancy or a mismatch of the plumbing, electrical, and mechanical. Let's say a duct is overlapping, a regular, no hub. It's clearly shown on the software and it can be there. There can be a possible solution which can be changed directly on there. And that was the one which we liked and everyone were impressed about it. So if you're planning to purchase this, this is the best tool for you to buy, because believe me, I'm using this on a daily coordination. And if you feel that you're working on any high-rise buildings or any building, which has a lot of complicated layouts within the mechanical and plumbing fixtures, this one would be a very helpful tool for you. I believe that investing on this would make your life easier. And if you want to showcase the errors and show the subcontractor or who is working the site, site workers, of how the installation procedures should be through this management. And also you can share it with them and this can help a lot.
