### "Intuitive application"

May 22, 2018

4.0

Pros

It has the ability to collaborate locally and this makes your workflow much easier. It's the best solution to track issues immediately in the field. Also, it is so easy to share files

Cons

Price is too much expensive. It's just sensitive application, for example, if you are working on some tab, you can lose everything by one wrong click.

### "Big Mining user with not success"

November 13, 2020

5.0

It was very hard to implement with all our offices around the world and clients. The softwares and tools are amazing but my experiencie with our client was very hard to implement.

Pros

Is very easy to use, i can be very helpfull for medium project especific for buldings etc. You can track problem in all the stage of the engineering

Cons

Is very expensive and for general managment or project engineer in the mining sector is very difficult to work with, because of the lack knowledge and is not very common in the sector. And in order to use in the full potencial all stakeholder most know and have the software not only the viewers.

### "review of autodesk construction cloud"

November 30, 2022

5.0

Pros

Magnificent history set, increase ability, submittal/report coordination, punch records, the rundown continues forever. Extremely natural connection point and our field folks love it.

Cons

PlanGrid is an egotistical, conceited organization that won't be of help when inquired. I have recorded objections with the California BBB and the FTC.

### "Overall solid product with few minor changes that could make a major difference"

April 18, 2017

4.0

I enjoy the ease of use and the dashboard that provides a customized and overall snapshot of the project. I believe it can really help us with our quality initiative that we are trying to establish. The accountability will be important and powerful as will the documenting of issues, pictures, checklists. I am not involved in purchasing so I do not know anything about cost or monetary figures. I would like to be able to have the option of seeing more than 5 titles at a time on the dashboard. For example: I can only see 5 different root causes at a time for comparison but I have over 15 root causes that have been determined. I would like a bigger picture. Also, I wish the reporting was more detailed. With a little extra work I can make a better display in MS Excel communicating more information. I like the daily reporting and checklist functions the best. There needs to be a way to delete an issue while filling out the checklist if an issue is created by accident rather than it flagging as an issue but really it was a mistake.

Pros

Ease of use and navigation. Support is quick to respond with help. Customizable dashboard options that provide a quick visual of past events.

Cons

Reporting seems weak. Task manager is clumsy. not being able to rid of issues while checklist is being actively populated.

### "Lots of great features"

October 11, 2023

4.0

Pros

Tons of features, quick to learn, easy to dive straight in. Makes juggling multiple projects more straightforward and manageable.

Cons

It's always hard to bring new programs into this trade... glaziers like pen and paper, so a con is that this involves a computer and is overwhelming for those not used to computers. But that's going to be a problem with most programs in this trade, unfortunately.

November 20, 2023

5.0

Pros

It's easy to use and navigate, if you do need help the help button is very good at helping me understand the next step

Cons

It sometimes take a while to upload, but that may be our company's system.

### "Awesome product for construction visualization"

December 3, 2019

5.0

BIM 360 has been instrumental in coordinating layout for server rooms and boiler rooms. It can also be used for pre existing conditions for heights and floor level.

Pros

BIM 360 has help solve several conflicts in the drawing stage of quite a few of my projects. It helps everyone to have input and layout before anything is built, saving time and money on change orders.

Cons

It is a little pricey, but you get what you pay for. It takes a little time to learn, but you definitely can’t beat the time it saves.

### "The engineering of the future"

August 31, 2019

5.0

Very nice because my activities have become much more practical and easy to do.

Pros

The way to integrate all the stages of a project making everything is in one platform and the number of information so that everything is organized. This makes my project management much easier.

Cons

usually shows problems with the mobile device causing problems charging

### "I had the chance to encounter for the first time an Autodesk product that can involve the contractor"

May 8, 2018

3.0

Pros

The very friendly user interface enables self-learning and exploring more options on my own and also allows me to explain the product to my colleagues at work in the simplest ways in order for them to be part of this promising platform. In addition, the cost of this product regarding the purchasing of licences is really good compared to many other platforms being sold.

Cons

It lacks a lot of options and even the simplest and most obvious ones that are for sure provided within other platforms. The options and features it lacks are quite a lot and specific so I may not be able to provide them within this section due to the limited numbers of characters provided, but I would be glad if a detailed report was required to be submitted as a feedback on behalf of my company which is one of the main clients of Autodesk in Egypt.

### "BIM 360 Product Review"

April 12, 2017

4.0

Overall, BIM 360 product is a good communication and QC tool to visualize and analyze in preconstruction and construction phases. The biggest benefit of using BIM 360 is nobody needs standalone desktop software anymore from the designers to owners. It's huge in terms of everybody is at a single platform to review, update, and finalize fast paced construction schedule. However, it needs to be improved in terms of 2D and 3D direct collaboration: side by side review which other 3rd party companies offer.

Pros

\- Cloud based analysis tool: Everything is live - No desktop software requires - No manual collaboration require after the initial setup - More dynamic interactive tool

Cons

\- No static appearance profiler like Navisworks - No intuitive clash analysis tool like Navisworks - No dynamic 2D / 3D collaboration - No Quantity take off - No schedule integration

### "Terrific platform for access to my construction drawings"

January 18, 2019

5.0

This is an incredibly useful app. The portability of every issue of drawings for the projects that I am working on makes this app so handy for use on my tablet. I have used the overlay feature to figure out a change order many times while commuting on the train. The mark up features and ability to add photos as part of my field notes on a project are invaluable. The same notes and photos added by others make punch lists much easier to complete. I can't say enough about the ability to save specs and approvals and other documents into Plangrid and that makes them just as portable as the drawings.

Pros

Loads fast. Easy to share comments and collaborate. Many helpful commenting tools. Loading drawings is usually quick and easy.

Cons

Android updates come out later than Apple updates. I am an android user and every now and then I cannot access a new feature that Apple users can.

### "It feels as though it is a soup up Dropbox."

May 10, 2018

4.0

Team members have the ability to upload/download files from Glue platform at all times while every single entry is timestamped, making accountability easy.

Pros

Time stamp; ease of upload from authoring software via built-in API; Local Navisworks' Viewpoints can be transferred to BIM 360 Glue platform, though it does take a workflow.

Cons

Zoom-in-and-out while viewing every single Clash; No batch upload option; Folders collapse every single time after upload or delete of file(s); Can't easily delete Merged Model if 1 or more linked models are in the prior version of the said Merged Model;

I love the over all Autodesk construction cloud it is so easy and great to use!

Pros

This is the best software to use because we are able to see the measurements to be exact and easy to change.

### "BIM360 Is the Only Option, and it's Just Okay"

January 4, 2019

3.0

We are only using BIM360 because we have to to use cloud collaboration for Revit. The licensing requirements make it unusable for our requirements of collaborating with other companies.

Pros

Interactivity, interoperability with Revit

Cons

Licensing limits, have to buy a license even for people to simply view a model, the inability for users from other companies to bring their licenses to work collaboratively, it is cumbersome to set up projects and add users, what functionality is included in each of the packages is unclear

October 16, 2018

Pros

When I started with PlanGrid I didnt know what to expect. Now that we have integrated it into many of our projects I am pleased at the ease of use and productivity increases

Pros

I really like the ability to track all aspects from RFI's to Punch list items updating in real time to all members of the team

Cons

I would like if it was easier to attach photos to RFI's

### "We mainly use BIM360 Glue and it has given us an excellent experience providing us with what we need"

June 19, 2018

5.0

The result obtained from the problems detected by the BIM360 Glue could be exported to excel format, which makes it easier for companies to format it using their graphic standards that best suit their needs.

Pros

Excellent program, the ease that has to share the model with all workers in the project, the historical control of the data handled and the ability to roll back to a predetermined date, as well as user control; such as who has worked, how I do it and what was the use that gave the tool make it essential for all professional members of the company.

Cons

The result obtained from the problems detected by the BIM360 Glue could be exported to excel format, which makes it easier for companies to format it using their graphic standards that best suit their needs. An automated graphic that shows the evolution of the impact of the results and advances within the organization is also very necessary.

### "PlanGrid is the obvious choice!"

April 13, 2019

5.0

Like most construction firms, TD was struggling with getting current information and documents out to our field. Once we started using PlanGrid, that’s not something we even think a lot about anymore because we know it’s happening and our field leaders do too. We have changed the way we use PlanGrid as it has grown and we’ve seen process improvement internally and our efficiency with key documentation tasks has increased significantly.

Pros

The ease of use. Deployment in the field is much easier because PlanGrid is just so easy to use.

Cons

There’s not any thing I like least about PlanGrid, it really is fantastic. The folks at PlanGrid work hard to constantly improve their product and stay on top of the needs of their customer.

### "Better than lugging around Plans!"

January 24, 2019

4.0

Have found the PlanGrid folks to be responsive to our needs.

Pros

Very simple interface on iOS devices. Great to have all your plans with you when you travel. New features being added all the time. Even our old school superintendents are able to use it. I love the compare version sheets option.

Cons

The punch list feature has been changed and more difficult for me to navigate around. I really don't like the output of the punch/task list as it forces one item per page. Making improvements in the daily log feature and almost as good as Raken at this point.

### "Overall a great way to capture issues, track work and share information with others."

May 3, 2018

4.0

Pros

Photos, issues, and track ability. Everything that makes tracking issues easier is a great asset to my job. I enjoy being able to easily snap photos of problems and making issues on the fly instead of having to write them down on paper and translation

Cons

Syncing erases over other people's work. when I am working on an issue or a checklist and then I sync, my work can be overwritten if someone else has that checklist open and is working on it and sync.

### "BIM 360 has been a game changer for cosultant clash detection. Great product."

August 8, 2017

5.0

Collaboration on projects has been much better and smoother than I have experienced in years. Files become corrupt much less often. Clash detection is nice and easy access to consultant models is a benefit.

Pros

Clash detection and having the most up to date models. Saving to the central file on the cloud is easy and pretty quick with the right internet service. Eliminates the need to transfer revit files to users on that same project.

Cons

I don't like that it is a little difficult to add people to a project. Admin abilities are limited.
