Very interesting! Pros The training is very helpful and in depth. The connections made when participating in the discussions are great to help see new viewpoints. Cons There is a lot going on and it might be easy to miss new information or new activities. Many tabs to click on. Review Source JM Jasmin M. Estimator Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Powerful Project Management Service" March 6, 2026 5.0 Overall, my experience with Autodesk Construction Cloud has been positive. It centralizes project data, making collaboration and communication seamless across teams. The platform’s real-time updates and analytics help reduce errors, improve efficiency, and give clear visibility into project progress. The only drawback I experienced was occasional poor customer service, which made resolving issues slower than expected. Pros I liked Autodesk Construction Cloud for centralizing project data and enabling real-time collaboration. It streamlines workflows, improves communication, and provides clear insights into project progress Cons The communication is not the best. I was assisted with an account executive who was no longer working with Auto Desk. It set my company back a few days since we were not able to access our subscriptions. Review Source RH Rod H. Civil Engineer III Civil Engineering Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Autodesk Construction Cloud Review" March 12, 2026 3.0 The software has been beneficial for the most part but for a small company not sure if it would provide value. Pros The ability to of real time access for our companies BIM drawings. It is allow very helpful for our field crews to receive the latest info if there was an update on the drawings. Cons Very difficult to learn and training is hard to find. The software is also expense meaning a company will need to vet out if it is worth implementing in the firm. Review Source JS Joseph S. Resident Project Representative Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Autodesk Construction Cloud " January 13, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Autodesk Construction Cloud is definitely positive. Ever since I started using ACC my job has been so much easier. Pros Autodesk Construction Cloud makes a huge difference in my everyday work life. I used to have to keep physical plan sets for multiple projects. Now everything is right on my phone. I can even mark-up drawings and published changes can be seen by everyone on the project. Absolute game changer! Cons The thing I disliked the most about Autodesk Construction Cloud is that I didn't find out about it sooner. Compared to other programs like it ACC is fast, simple, and easy to use. Review Source MM Mohammed M. Project manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best app for the project team" February 1, 2026 5.0 It is a very user friendly platform and even a beginner can access it without any issues as the options are very straightforward. Pros It is a fantastic application to deliver the desired output and improves the quality of the project at every stage. Cons Customizing the dashboard doesn’t give many options and limited to only a few options that’s consumes a lot of project time. Review Source BA BISHNU A. Project Engineer Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Autodesk Construction Cloud: Best for BIM collaboration" January 16, 2026 4.0 For a subcontractor like our company, it is best suited for our core job like BIM and design collaboration. But it's not for General Contractor. Pros The major and probably the major pros of Autodesk Construction Cloud are its sole focus on BIM. For a subcontractor like us, who only focuses on BIM and design work: it is the go-to Project management tool. Cons If you are a General Contractor and have to deal with various workflows including multiple entities, then Autodesk Construction Cloud is just not worthy. Review Source AD Andrea D. Project estimate Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A Powerful and User-Friendly Platform for Architects and Construction Teams" January 8, 2026 5.0 I truly love it. As an architect, I have been familiar with Autodesk tools since my university years, and Autodesk Construction Cloud feels like a natural evolution—powerful, reliable, and extremely helpful throughout all project stages. Pros I really like how easy it is to use and how much it simplifies daily tasks. The platform streamlines workflows, keeps everything well organized, and makes collaboration much more efficient. Cons Sometimes the system provides so many pre-built tools and ready-made solutions that it can feel a bit restrictive when trying to customize certain workflows to very specific needs. Review Source LC Luis C. Co Owner Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Great software" January 12, 2026 5.0 I love it, I use it everyday as if it were my email since I am a co owner of a company it is exciting to check it everyday Pros I like that you can view projects you want to bid on and you can control projects as well as timelines Cons How much you have to log in and out and it doesn’t save your information/ security code when it asks for two step Review Source MW Mark W. Owner Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Good for document control" January 17, 2026 5.0 I switch form the primar tool for the Cloud because it offers more sharing and collaboration features. Pros I like most the Bridge tool that gives more abilities to share. Like sharing specific folders with separate ACC access without losing control of internal working files. Cons First setting up can be a nightmare. So for small projects, I used to pick a template and I replicate derectories as I go Review Source aP abdiel P. AIT Architecture & Planning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "cloud is a must need in my mind" December 4, 2025 5.0 Overall, its a part of my everyday work life, and sometimes in creative personal endeavors. The cloud is a must need in my mind. Pros I use it in par with Revit. It's use is invaluable in Revits execution in my office. I often work with other offices and the cloud service is very easy to use and it can be used with many devices. Cons Sometimes its a bit slow when many people use i, but if you restrict access and manage who in your organization have access, to those necesary then its quite perfect. Review Source Rafael D. Building Technician Building Materials Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "From Overwhelming to Indispensable" August 16, 2025 5.0 My overall experience with Autodesk Construction Cloud has been a journey from initial challenge to significant reward. Pros Integration with Autodesk Ecosystem: For firms already using Revit, Civil 3D, and other Autodesk products, the integration is a key advantage. It creates a smooth workflow, allowing for easy data transfer and continuity from design to construction. Cons Pricing and Cost Structure: The pricing can be expensive, especially for smaller companies or for accessing specific features that are "stuck behind a paywall." Review Source NW Noah W. Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Autodesk Construction Review" March 15, 2025 3.0 The overall experience has been great. It works well for what we use it for. Pros It's very organized with file storage which is what I use it the most for Cons The adding people to new jobs takes too long, I think it could be simpler. Review Source HP HITESH P. Special Project Manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Autodesk Construction Cloud is BEST" January 23, 2025 5.0 We are using Autodesk Construction Cloud Colloborate Pro licenses mostly for BIM coordination, project management, etc. However, we are using 250+ licenses in our organisation. Pros CDE Environment first of all and BUILD, Cost Management, etc Cons Its easy to grip and gain; we are as much familier as we used from last 3–5 years. Review Source YG Yuriy G. Detailer and BIM Coordinator Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Excellent tool for collaboration in the construction field." November 20, 2024 5.0 Our biggest use is Revit model cloud collaboration. We are attempting to use it more for document control. Pros Many different features all in one location. Cons Some of the features need work. Model coordination works well for an overview, but its lacking for extensive coordination. Docs specifications needs the ability for markup. And that's just a few examples. Overall, needs fine tuning, buts its been getting better each year. Review Source KY Kristina Y.

I taught a class at AU and provide tips on usage. Pros Ease of user and collaboration abilities Cons Some functions and features to ensure easy communication are missing. Not a deal breaker, but would enhance the system Review Source EC Edwin C. Revit Documenter Construction Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "The Innovation of Teamwork through Cloud" November 22, 2024 4.0 Works very well after setting up the initial phase. Abit of Lag when working on big projects which is understandable seeing as you are working on the Revit Model between multiple users. Pros I like how we are able to deploy a Revit model for multiple users to work at once. Very convenient and time saving when working on big projects. Cons Can be quite difficult to operate when first starting out. Requires communication with the Autodesk Team to learn the software and the ability to remove unwanted Revit Models/ Projects.

Pros I like how files are kept in the Cloud and accessibility is a breeze. Cons For first-time user, it's hard to navigate on the interface but after a few use, you'll get familiar with it. Review Source DE Deivis E. BIM/VDC Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Most impactful review" October 29, 2023 5.0 I can describe in a few words, the productivity and efficiency working collaboratively with the work and the office as a whole has been totally enriching. Pros I think that the way of saving and organizing all the files in the same source of truth DOCS is one of the things that has made my productivity easier in my day using ACC. The second is BUILD, the connection between the field and our office. It has been one of the most significant advances in our work workflow on the construction site. Cons I think that in BUILD the way the sheets are organized can be improved, recently you did an update on a way of organizing called collection, it's not bad, it has given me the way to find the shop drawings sets more easily, but after they are in the collection folder that I have created and I cannot take the sheets out from there again, you should create a simpler way to be able to locate the version set more easily, because it gets complicated when I have many, I take them out at least a week 8 shop drawings set, imagine there are around 32 minimum sets per month, it has been difficult for us on many occasions to find a particular set, that is, more than a filter is needed, so it is better to be able to organize by folders.

Review Source AM Ashish M. VDC Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "ACC got it ALL - be it Preconstruction, Design, or Field!" October 12, 2023 4.0 Pros ACC has become a one-stop-shop for all our projects, ranging from managing and coordinating BIM models, managing design development, quantity take-off to project management needs such as RFIs, Submittals, Schedules, Meeting Minutes. It has become a catchphrase in the company whenever someone asks: "Where can I find it? It's on ACC, of course!" Cons Some of the tools still have too many clicks to go through, for example Forms, Photos, Submittals module. Once someone gets the hang of it - all things totally make sense. However, since these modules are frequently going to be used by our field teams, we might need to make these features a bit easier to use. And I know, Autodesk is continuously developing these features by collecting feedback from multiple sources, which is great! Review Source BG Bruce G. BIM Research and Development/Facility Management Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "HB Construction - "Built Different!" with Autodesk BIM 360" January 31, 2017 4.0 Recently HB Construction in Albuquerque, New Mexico, is offering our design teams and owners new tools to help facilitate our commitment to providing quality buildings. Autodesk BIM 360 products, Glue and Field with Autodesk Building Ops are cloud based mobile platforms used for coordination, collaboration, QA/QC management, asset and finally preventative maintenance. Autodesk's BIM tools are transforming HB's handover experience to our owners and building operators giving them access on day one of operations to the information they need. Gathering of building data starts in the early stages of pre-construction. HB creates construction models either from the design models or from 2D construction sets. Using Autodesk BIM 360 Glue, models are used to coordinate location of trade's elements virtually before placement in the field. We work with all our sub-contractors to sign-off on a fully coordinated model before field work begins. While working on coordinating element locations in BIM 360 Glue, HB and its subs also use Autodesk BIM 360 Field to provide asset data important to the building elements warranty, preventative maintenance and operation management. BIM 360 Field also supports our field management allowing HB to track issues for quality assurance, safety, and commissioning. As the project nears completion, Building Ops connects to BIM 360 Field allowing all the relevant documents, models, photographs and videos associated with the building components and asset data to be migrated and conveniently available in Building Ops. Using the available data and information in Building Ops the HB warranty team continually updates and manages asset information such as location, operation, maintenance, repairs and service requests for two years after substantial completion. Those in charge of operating and maintaining the building are invited and can use the mobile or web interface of the application also. In fact, we encourage this. HB is proud to offer Autodesk BIM 360 Glue and Field and Autodesk Building Ops as added value services to our clients as they enable HB to save time, money and resources with a fully coordinated data-centric model used to manage field quality and safety during construction passing on to owners and operators, true real-time asset information reflective of the building design and construction that they may trust and access on day one of the handover experience. Pros The ability to access real data from the cloud. The ease at learning and getting started quickly with really world results. Ability to show subs the ease and capabilities so that they feel part of the team. Cons I do wish the BIM 360 products were more integrated. Each of the Autodesk BIM 360 tools offer such needed benefits that if they were able to interact with each other our teams would use them even more. When a team member on the site has to go to 3 or 4 different tools to access the same data it can get tiring. Review Source Sharma B.

Designer Architecture & Planning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Innovation and technology in construction: my experience using Autodesk Construction Cloud"" May 27, 2023 4.0 My experience with Autodesk Construction Cloud working for more or less a year has been exceptionally enriching, since I had to be the designer of a structure for a network connection of a company because this platform greatly simplified the organization of documents, the programming of tasks and collaboration between teams. And something very important was his ability to visualize and analyze projects in 3D, improving the understanding of architectural designs and the way in which they translate into reality so that the engineers in charge of construction can do a more complete and perfect job. Without a doubt, a product that I would use again. Pros I worked more or less with Autodesk Construction Cloud for a year and what I liked the most about this tool was the perfect integration it had with other Autodesk products, such as AutoCAD and Revit, thanks to this it facilitated collaboration and the exchange of information between equipment. In addition, its 3D analysis and visualization function allowed us to have a clearer and more detailed vision of our projects, improving decision-making and thus minimizing errors during the design and construction stage. Cons In a matter of negative points I have 2, the first is that the platform can be a bit complex to use, especially for those who are not familiar with Autodesk products, since I already had knowledge, it was not difficult for me to learn how to use it. And another point is that I consider that its cost is very high, of course the price is due to the fact that it has many functionalities, but not all of them are always needed, so we cannot exploit it 100%.
