Engineer Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Good BIM platform" August 8, 2022 5.0 Decent software, unfortunately it has substitute freeware BimSight as a paid version with a bit more functionality. Pros Fast interface. Easy management of multiple IFC models. Cons High cost is the main disadvantage of software. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Field Engineer Civil Engineering Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Good tool for managing 3D, drawings and team coordination" December 28, 2025 4.0 Overall, my experience with Trimble Connect has been good. It helps keep drawings and documents organized and makes teamwork easier. Once you spend some time using it, it becomes a reliable tool for daily project work. Pros Trimble Connect is easy to use once you get used to it. It’s very helpful for sharing drawings and files with the team in one place. Everyone can see the latest version, which avoids confusion on site. Being able to access files from both the office and the field is a big plus. Cons At first, it can feel a bit confusing, especially for new users. Some tools are not very obvious and take time to learn. It can also be a little slow when working with large files.

Engineer Civil Engineering Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "This software will only work in you have an active internet connection" May 30, 2024 3.0 Fantastic software but no good if I cant use it even if its installed on my own PC. Pros I can clip out small areas of the BIM model and export to the Trimble TSC5 survey controller. Cons After installing the desktop version , your will work out that the software wont run unless you have an active internet connection. If you need to get some critical information out of the BIM model then you are going to have a problem. Reason for choosing Trimble Connect The project im building has been designed in BIM. There are no CAD files to upload into the controler so I have to use Trimble Connect. There is no alternative. If these BIM models could be exported to IFC then there would be more freedom Review Source VC Vincent C. Layout supervisor Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A must have in today's construction environment " July 22, 2023 5.0 The most useful tool out there for collaboration with all parties involved Pros Being able to share the model with my team and the design team Cons Can't really think of anything. I like Eben about this program. Reason for choosing Trimble Connect Its the best program available for construction collaboration Review Source jwL joseph wendel L. Project Coordinator Design Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Trimble Connect for Construction Project" July 1, 2023 5.0 Pros I like trimble connect's interface as it can identify issues such as clashes and buildability of the structural steel Cons One thing that they need to improve maybe is how to measure objects. They should also add the option to measure center to center of an object. Review Source AS Andrew S. Director Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Trimble Scam " September 1, 2023 1.0 Appalling No notice when renewal was due, exceeded 30 days and threatened with court action when I had not cancelled 30 days beforehand - no renewal notice 30 days before renewal date though - you could call it theft but apparently its legal. Would not recommend to anyone and advise anyone I meet going forwards to avoid at all cost! Pros Not a lot , don't know why we bought it, Bentley far superior product Cons Slow to use and implementReports overlongInputting fields poor Alternatives considered [Hevacomp](https://www.capterra.com/p/233415/Hevacomp/) Reason for choosing Trimble Connect Others recommended - I will never be going back or recommending to others Review Source tA tiago A. PM Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "One of the CDEs to look out for " September 26, 2021 3.0 Great for document sharing and with a strong 3D / cad viewer you'll be able to do with connect what others won't. The Pros A very strong document management system with some unique features on the market today. Cons a couple of structural flaws like user management and issue management make that the end user will not make use of the full set of tools if they are not imposed. Review Source AS Aria S. Design Consultant Media Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Make An Easy Task Easier" September 13, 2022 5.0 Making models in Sketchup is something can be considered as easy task. Having Trimble Connect make the works way more easier because it has a large scale of libraries with so many models, extensions, and much more inside. Pros The model library. I've been using Sketchup and Trimble Connect for more than 2 years, and each time I'm in a rushing project, it helps me much to get my works easier. Cons It depends on internet connection. It's not every time I work in the grid, and for some reasons I can't connect to the internet on my working sites and makes the software unusable. Review Source VK Vikash K. Architect Architecture & Planning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A great collaboration software " December 23, 2022 4.0 Overall its a good collaboration software which also supports a library of models and components that is as huge as it gets. Pros Easy use for collaboration, document sharing is easy, files can be viewed online, and also can be used on mobile platform. Cons Everything is online so it becomes very hard to work offline. It is still a software that is not known to many so knowledge is less.

Pros Really makes collaborative work very seamless. Everything is in real-time. Cons The system is not recommended for small projects since it may be quite expensive. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Business Developer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Design" November 30, 2022 5.0 so far so good love that you can connect with friends. Pros very powerful tool so far. I like it already Cons first was abit confusing but with time it become more intresting Review Source SL Somi L. Senior Project Manager Architecture & Planning Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "sharing tool " July 28, 2022 3.0 Pros This is a program where you can share your work in progress models with your subcontractors and it helps keep everyone on the project on the same page. I use it mostly for design coordination and it often gets used among the in-house team meeting. Cons This is more of a design coordination tool than the construction coordination tool. You can share 3D models and drawings but because it is not as extensive as other construction document generators so we only get to use it in the schematic design phase, not throughout the entire construction phase. Review Source SS Sam S. Principal Mechanical or Industrial Engineering Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Great collaboratory MEPS construction software" October 6, 2022 4.0 Pros Great tool in collaboration of MEPS construction project. Cons Not well known yet even though beginning to catch up with professionals.
