Gregg C
President
5.0

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.
