### "Software antigo, fácil de usar, mas já deixa a desejar"

March 22, 2023

4.0

Pros

Tem todas as ferramentas na palma da mão, facilitando a organização, vendas e estoque.

Cons

Muita lentidão, principalmente para criar novas telas, além de não ser tão simples de aprender a usar, isto é, não é tão intuitívo.

### "Makes work easier"

April 4, 2017

5.0

Used this program on a large project and was very impressed. It's ease of use and options makes it a must for every job site. Was able to load the apps on both my iPad and iPhone enabling me to have the tools necessary to look at things even when I was onsite. Not having to carry around 85 pages of blueprints makes things easier also. The zoom feature came in handy when the on numerous occasions. I highly recommend this app for any project.

Pros

Ease of use, highly portable

4.0

### "I love Plangrid"

January 3, 2019

5.0

Pros

We have projects that both use Procore and Plangrid and I like the ease of use and the daily notifications that I get. Makes it easier for me to not miss anything document related

Cons

While the interface of Plangrid is a little elementary, the program is still solid and has been able to alert me to issues fast than that of Procore.

### "Navis Manage Did it better"

April 10, 2017

2.0

The Major benefit of this software is the cloud based collaboration between trades and the ability to open BIM 360 in Navis Manage and then save views to BIM 360. This essentially could be accomplished with similar software like Box Sync or Dropbox.

Pros

I like that I can open these cloud files directly in Navisworks and save view points back to the cloud.

Cons

The upload and processing of files is bulk cumbersome and time consuming

### "Great for BIM to Field Collaboration "

November 7, 2018

5.0

Pros

Easy to manage drawings for the field to use Hyperlinks add a ton of value and are a super time saver

Cons

I was not wild about the change in the website look. Once you get past the learning curve it is smooth sailing.

August 31, 2017

4.0

live models

Pros

I like the Navisworks 360 intergration. I also like the desktop app, get rid of the web based use since it seems like it never works

Cons

I dislike how i sometimes have to refresh twice in navis to get the glue update. I also dislike that a merged model has to be renamed every time its saved. The user navigation is cumbersome and sometimes hard to manage models

### "Quality communication tool between site and office personnel"

November 7, 2018

5.0

PlanGrid has allowed us to push out drawing revisions and capture redlines more efficiently. Being able to link photos to confusing changes reduces time wasting phone calls between designers and installers.

Pros

The ease of finding, opening, and working with a drawing while communicating with individuals working remotely.

Cons

Not being able to access or manipulate all the information via the app vs web based platforms.

### "I find it cumbersome and slow."

August 15, 2017

2.0

Pros

Drag and drop feature.

Cons

Sign-in shouldn't take so long. Why 3 screens? Updates for drawings shouldn't be difficult to do. Doesn't read the title block correctly. I cannot comment on customer support or value.

### "Overall Very Satisfied"

May 3, 2018

4.0

It allows for open communication between contractors , owner, and owner rep.

Pros

I like the ability to customize options when auditing safety and quality in the field. I use it daily in order to provide feedback to owners and contractors.

Cons

It is slightly hard to navigate for a beginner who wants advanced options. It helps that there are focal points available to address issues on site.

### "Excellent tool to track projects on the field"

January 31, 2017

5.0

I have used BIM360 for the last 2 years and have found the features to be really helpful in tracking progress in construction projects and helping me to escalate issues within the tool and be able to pull up reports for the completion of different parts of the project.

Pros

The ability to track multiple projects through various stages and being able to review and upload reports.

Cons

The GUI is not too user-friendly, can be worked on.

### "Basic construction software"

March 8, 2019

4.0

It's ok.... not very user friendly. Reports aren't easy to generate, or should I say modify in a way you want to present to the client. I'm currently trying alternate software solutions.

Pros

Organizes complex commercial buildings quickly.

Cons

Inability to customize report.... modifications cannot be easily made. Also, even though we play to utilize the software every report document advertises for plangrid.

### "Powerful collaboration tools for desktop and mobile"

January 31, 2017

4.0

With BIM 360 and especially the Glue tools we can perform full 3D coordination anywhere, from the office workstation or on an iPad out in the field. It would be nice to be able to temporarily "move" items in Glue, to see if they fit in a new location, much like Navisworks.

Pros

BIM 360 keeps everything integrated in one environment making it simple to load up a different project complete with the latest 3D models, all its markups, and clashes.

Cons

The PC application feels a bit disorganized and difficult to use at times. The measure tool could be improved with constraint locks for perpendicular measurements. It would be useful to select geometry and temporarily move it to a new location to test fit. i.e. dragging a duct down 3" to see if it resolves an existing clash.

### "My thoughts."

January 31, 2017

Using BIM 360 is a great tool to have in my line of work. It's put all the info I need at the touch of a button. Using this has greatly reduced my time in and out of the office to look at the paper drawing, computer ext.

Pros

Not having to use paper.

Cons

Sync time.

March 5, 2019

5.0

I am able to communicate with my field personnel with ease and I like the iPad compatibility

Pros

The software is easy to use and intuitive, my foreman is able to markup drawings and send them back to the office with ease.

Cons

Software is great, I would say the way that plan sheets are upload it could be a little faster, but it's very insignificant.

### "We use BIM to track safety issues on a constrution site. "

August 20, 2017

3.0

Both apple and MS friendly.

Pros

It was very easy to which from the 1.20 project to the 1.30 project. Then when they added the 175 project and the parking garage.

Cons

I could not write in an email address for tagging issues with. Sometimes people would be on vacation or went to a different site. It took forever to upload photos and then longer when you sync the changes.

### "BIM 360 Review"

April 13, 2017

4.0

We primarily utilize BIM 360 field on ipads for the issues log function. This product is easy to use, easy to attach photos to issues, and easy to assign issues to the various contractors we work with. The library function allows you to upload and view documents. We typically upload construction drawings and specifications. In the field utilizing our ipads, we are able to quickly pull up these drawings and specs for review. This product has proven to be a huge time saver for my department.

Pros

Issues log function is superb. Easy to attach photos to issues in the field utilizing our ipads.

Cons

Difficult to edit checklists.

April 9, 2017

TCC is using for punchlist and for documents in the field. It has been a good tool for the construction management team, and as we get the subcontractors to use it, and even more effective tool.

Pros

1\. Ease of use. 2. Experience other have with it. 3. Strong tool to document items.

Cons

Fortunately, no real issues. I am sure as I get more proficient I will find things work better than they do for me now.

### "Could be better, but could definitely be worse"

April 7, 2017

2.0

BIM 360 has been a mostly useful database tool for my company, but suffers from its own name recognition and previous company success. The company does little self driven innovation on the product, instead relying on the customer to request a feature and wait for implementation. For example: If you use checklists and happen to delete a template by accident, according to support you cannot restore the deleted template or link previously uploaded checklists to a new template. This may seem like a small thing, but when checklists are mission critical it's a costly mistake. Customer support has always been helpful to the best of their abilities, though the level of knowledge tends to vary more than you'd think for a company the size of Autodesk--this is also my only complaint on this front, as support is very quick to respond to support tickets. The user experience itself is a mixed bag with BIM 360. While the interface is fairly straightforward after initial training, the sluggishness you find in the whole system is frankly incredible. BIM 360 seems to be built on old interface technology and takes quite a while to run reports, search information, or to generally do anything. I'm honestly amazed by how bad it is. Overall I'd love for the entire tool to be reworked, but wouldn't pay for it in its current state for our next project.

### "PlanGrid"

February 12, 2019

3.0

While BlueBeam is our standard pdf/plans tool, we use PlanGrid when the GC we are working with uses it.

Pros

It does provide document viewing and the ability to do some markups. The mobile usability of this is also a plus.

Cons

1\. As a subscription based product it is difficult to roll out. 2. Doesn't have the estimating capabilities that BlueBeam has
