### "Plangrid is a useful tool that I've been able to utilize for work purposes"

February 8, 2018

5.0

Useful for on-the-go storage of blueprints

Pros

The ability to have multiple sheets uploaded and in one place is very useful, especially when on the go. The mobility of the app is my favorite part.

Cons

It is a little clunky sometimes, and can lock you out if you exceed your limit of sheets. I think this is mainly in the app, the desktop version is more customized.

### "The Future Of Construction Plans"

November 7, 2018

5.0

The greatest benefit for our company, is the fact that at any point and time our field managment has the most up to date set of plans. Issues derived from plan changes and field changes are a thing of the past.

Pros

The functionality and UI is top notch. Being able to go to one software that does so much was the winning ticket for us. Annotation, measuring, and the field have the most recent set of plans.

Cons

It requires a lot of request submitted to get something changed.

### "B3F Experience"

April 6, 2017

5.0

I am a big supporter of B3F. The ease of use and the functionality of the program allow for contractors to easily understand how to use the program. It also makes our jobs easier to get problems resolved. I have helped multiple Subcontractors understand the program. Within a few minutes they understand how the program works and how to use it.

### "Glue is a good Model FTP site for collaboration. Field is a good QC and Documentation process."

August 18, 2017

4.0

Pros

Notifying and syncing. Saved information for issues and content. Simple to use. Availability for sub and Arch and Eng to use.

Cons

Glue - spinning Wheel and Clash Views. Field - Not enough customization as far as adding excel files, videos to photos and a progress photo tab.

### "BIM 360 works well the majority of the time. "

August 8, 2017

4.0

I get the benefits of being able to look at a project and fly to the project and attempt to find conflicts before they arise. I can do this prior to getting my installation prince therefore Getting ahead of the curve

Pros

I like being able to fly through a 3-D model of the project I am working on. It is extremely helpful in solving coordination conflicts .

Cons

I leest like having to sync daily manually. It needs an option that if it is in Wi-Fi it automatically synchronizes

### "Great way to collaborate and store updated files. "

August 8, 2017

4.0

Pros

File storage for models and ensuring that the files are up to date is well organized and easy to keep track of. Collaboration on the coordination front is great as well because it ensures everyone's working off of the most up to date files.

Cons

Clash detection is a step back from Navisworks clash detection. Need to be able to identify clashes better and organize clashes from those that're important and those that're not.

### "Lots of functions, slow as molasses"

March 30, 2019

3.0

Pros

It has lots and lots of capabilities and options that can be used both in the field as well as in an office setting.

Cons

### "Good for small projects with small files, but not large projects"

April 9, 2017

1.0

Slow Speed downloading and opening files. Greatly improved over the last 2 years while using the BIM 360 desktop app, but Navisworks is still needed for moment and usability and still very very slow opening from Navis. Minimal controls in BIM 360 app from movement and very minimal hot keys. All movement or clash actions in the BIM 360 app have slow response and downright unusable on large projects. Rather use straight Navisworks on 95% of our projects.

Pros

close to realtime

Cons

Speed and usability on large (over 20M) projects.

### "BIM 360 Tracking Success"

February 1, 2017

5.0

We are using the BIM 360 at Sarasota Memorial Hospital and are finding it very robust in its tracking features for our project. I highly recommend it.

Pros

Robust features

Cons

First time users may have a bit of a learning curve. Some features are not obvious at first.

### "Funtastic BIM"

January 31, 2017

4.0

I think the tool is great. I think there still needs to be some improvement between all the BIM 360 services. On top of that it would be nice to have a plugin from navisworks that talks directly to the BIM 360 services too.

Pros

That ability to communicate instanatly

Cons

There is not enough collaboration between services.

### "Great for Deficiency Tracking"

January 31, 2017

4.0

I believe Autodesk BIM 360 has revolutionized the deficiency tracking procedure as it is easy to use for all site team members regardless of technical know how. One of the best selling points is the feature for reporting all the statistics and how maneuverable it is. Moreover, it's integration with iOS devices was done quite excellently as there were no issues in coordinating all logged items into one giant list from all parts of a concerned project.

Pros

Its ease of use

Cons

Limited in its scope as a Project Management tool

### "Love BIM360"

January 31, 2017

5.0

We use several different BIM360 programs for our project and each is a valuable tool. I've had nothing but great experiences and enjoy how the programs are continuously improved.

Pros

Ease of use. Ability to track project metrics.

Cons

A few of the features are a little "clunky," meaning they run slow at times.

### "I am mostly using BIM360 Glue and it has delivered what we needed, a solid app for clash detection. "

May 18, 2018

4.0

Open and coordinated clash detection with everyone involved in the project.

Pros

The ability to share the model with everyone involved in the project, the historical control and ability to roll back to a predetermined date, the user control (who has done what and when) and the ease of use which is fundamental to put non technical people on board.

Cons

The clash detection report generated by BIM360 Glue could be exported to excel format which would make easier to companies to format it using their graphical standards. An automated graph showing clash evolution is very much needed as well.

### "I am able to modify drawings and add notes and annotations to them from my web browser."

June 28, 2018

4.0

I am able to take my drawing out to the field and modify them directly on my mobile device.

Pros

I like the setup functionality and ease of use. I also like that it can be used from any computer or mobile device so that I can use it out in the field.

Cons

Customer service is lacking. The last time I contacted them, it took days before i got a response to a question.

### "Want to make your daily reporting easier???"

April 10, 2017

4.0

I have been using BIM 360 for about a year now and I love it. I still do not know all the ins and outs of the program but what I do know what to use it amazing, easy and keeps things so well organized. This program makes going back into the details of any given day as well as attach anything needed like pictures or other reports etc. I would like to take a training on it to get some more understanding of what else this can do

Pros

It is very easy to use and makes life easier with regards to the reporting that i do for work

Cons

I haven't learned all the ins and outs of this program I would like to know more about it more of a con about me, not the program a guess

### "Great program!"

March 7, 2017

5.0

My experience with this software has been great. Having my background with Navisworks I was very skeptical but BIM 360 has proven its worth and I almost prefer it except for the fact that I cannot move objects like in Navis or append models locally. Aside from that I think the clash detection is perfect and far better than Navis.

### "BIM360 is a powerful and user-friendly tool."

August 8, 2017

5.0

Collaboration and ultimately time saved.

Pros

I am new to the field and the ease of working and collaborating with others in multiple shared projects is something I was pleasantly surprised to see is possible today thanks to BIM360.

Cons

I had a few issues with a de-synced project that happened twice last year. The easiest way I was able to fix it was through a creating new project which was time consuming to learn how to do.

### "Good Program But Could Use a Few More Features"

February 14, 2017

4.0

My only complaint is that it would be nice to have a few extra features like being able to get elevation data; currently I need to use other programs to do it. Also, larger files take a long time to load; not sure if that's an area that can be improved.

Pros

Easy to use and doesn't require a lot of training to teach new team members.

Cons

Although great for beginners, it doesn't offer some of the more in-depth features available with other programs like Navisworks and AutoCAD

### "Good for fast and rapid exchange of informations"

September 6, 2019

4.0

Perfect, I recommend it because it speed-up the work

Pros

the things I liked most are the interoperability with other autodesk softwares (such as revit) and the easy-to-use interface

Cons

The things I liked least about the software are the plug-in and functions that you can do during the 3d visualization.

Reason for choosing Autodesk Forma

because of the popularity of autodesk softwares in pair with others bim-brand

### "User friendly; good number of options for construction. "

May 7, 2018

5.0

Pros

Everything is organized and set to a construction atmosphere. When I log in, I am able to navigate and use the software for my intended use and doesn't take time off my day to figure out settings.

Cons

Takes a while to load even with fast internet speed. I would like it if the dates were made a little bigger. Also, the photos in a daily report have to be seen 1 by 1 instead of continuously from the same user.

### "NOVO Construction"

January 18, 2019

5.0

I like that PlanGrid is always looking for ways to improve their product.

Pros

It is very easy to use and the customer support is great.

Cons

I like PlanGrid's take-off feature. However, I think it could be improved so that it could be more useful when doing take-offs for estimates.

August 19, 2017

4.0

Pros

So many functions that matches project needs. Easy to log and export issues and reports. Different account categories setting also good.

Cons

The platform is great but not well interlinked with other softwares also from BIM 360. Not easy to start at beginning.

### "BIM 360 App."

January 15, 2019

4.0

It has been positive so far. Hopefully the issues with new versions downloading will be rectified as well.

Pros

Quick access to drawings and links to cuts. And always having the latest version of the documents available to the project team.

Cons

Viewing of "files" in the app. I cant scroll through like i can on the plans side. I have to go to the menu and then to document navigation to pick a page. I would like to be able to scroll through.

### "BIM 360 Team has saved time both internally between team members and externally with other designers"

October 12, 2018

5.0

Pros

We use cloud storage for our files, which can lead to conflicting copies being created when multiple users are accessing the same file for review. BIM 360 Team allows internal review and collaboration without the issues regarding conflicting copies.

Cons

The mobile app is clunky and needs some updating/streamlining. It can run pretty slow depending on the size of the file.
