### "BIM360 on the Construction Project is a MUST"

February 14, 2017

4.0

We utilized BIM360 Plan & Field for a $100 million+ job. Using BIM360 Plan helped coordinate daily tasks with all the subcontractors - minimizing or alleviating delays that would have occurred in the field. BIM360 Field is an absolute must for tracking and organizing issues in the field and helps tremendously when it comes time to punch a building.

Pros

Easy to use for every person

Cons

Sometimes takes a lot of time to update.

### "Great PM platform"

May 11, 2019

5.0

Pros

First time I got introduced to BIM was in my work placement. It made team communication more effective and helped to lay out our project tasks which made team work more efficient.

Cons

With other available PM softwares BIM 360 lacks features that would help it stand.

### "Overall a good tool"

March 6, 2019

4.0

The software solves the problem of having to drag around large and cumbersome architectural sheet-sets. It also allows sharing and collaboration. It has been a useful tool worth the investment but there also is room for some enhancements.

Pros

Affordability, portability, ease of use. Solves the problem of field personnel dragging around large sheet-sets and manually marking them up. The option to attach pictures was one of the best features for my particular use case.

Cons

Not enough "task" filter options, Task "stamps" do not scale with the drawing.

### "Easy and streamlined"

January 31, 2017

5.0

I enjoy using BIM360 on both a computer browser and on my iPad. I actually prefer the iPad app to the web browser for it's ease and simplicity in the field. I use it primarily to keep track of completion list items, and like the flexibility of ways I can distribute this list to subcontractors. Printing to PDF offers a lot of different ways to sort, which is extremely helpful as well.

Pros

Easy, streamlined, awesome app

Cons

It's a little tedious when entering in items with similar information. I wish it could auto-populate more features than the company name, location, and item type.

### "Its the small details that help"

September 6, 2016

5.0

Pros

I really like the ability to tap on a detail and go to that detail sheet and see what I'm looking for, more detail! Some of my drawings are hundreds of pages deep and plan grid handles them all. I also like the way plan grid allows me to go back to where I started from, or jump into a completely different group of drawings. Plan grid updates easily so I can always have current drawings at my fingertips.

Cons

Can't think of anything off hand. But this will not let me submit until I have at least 50 characters so obviously there is one thing I do not like.

### "Smartest Field Tracking Program"

March 8, 2018

5.0

The capability to take photos and measure in the field is incredibly useful as well.

Pros

I love the ease of use for new users and non-members, it is extremely easy for contractors to use. I also value the cloud-based storage and sharing, which saves time on the front-end for information dissemination, and on the back-end with report generation.

Cons

It would be great if the background/structure PDF was instead a locked CAD file, which could be unlocked and changed by the administrator of the project if necessary.

### "Great coordination/ collaboration tool"

December 6, 2018

5.0

I've been using BIM 360 for 4+ years now, and it has helped me several times to spot and rectify issues before construction activity.

Pros

The ability to visualize building elements, the clash detection features, and collaboration tools to enable communicating issues easily

Cons

The graphic representation of elements like shading, material textures and lighting

### "Great program that includes many platforms"

May 3, 2018

5.0

Pros

How all the programs work together to create an efficient means of managing projects. The version compare feature helps a great deal with tracking changes.

Cons

Still some kinks to work out. Would love to be able to get a document log from BIM Docs. It does not work the best in places/spaces that don't have great wifi availability.

### "I use BIM 360 Feild on a daily basis, not a bad operating system."

May 3, 2018

4.0

Pros

Overall ease of use and functionality, have not used any other systems so I cannot compare to others, but the BIM 360 Field seems to be an all around good system that a first time user coild easily pick up on.

Cons

In some of the templates once you select YES in the group section you cannot select.... maybe a lack of user knowledge

### "Simplicity and Intuitive Functions are Key "

November 17, 2015

4.5

Pros

With an aging construction field workforce that does not typically share a love of gadgets that their younger colleagues do, a complex app becomes a wasted purchase quickly. PlanGrid provides a intuitive and simple interface for our management and field employees to communicate anything pertaining to the contract documents. The key for our firm is having an app that does not overwhelm or intimidate the user whom may have just recently be introduced to his mobile device.

Cons

The marketing push / "how can we improve" push as of late seems a bit much.

### "BIM 360 Field."

September 20, 2019

5.0

Good for RCL and punchlist. Havent used many of the other features yet.

Pros

Pretty intuitive and easy to learn. It is good for teaching owners, architects, etc, on board to use on the project.

Cons

The desktop version is lacking and the ipad version is much easier to use. More functionality is definitely needed on the desktop version.

### "BIM360 - Not for Dummies"

August 24, 2018

3.0

Fantastic functionality. The options available are endless BUT it is not easy to use, and too complicated to do simple tasks. Not plug and play - you need to have set up and implementation and training by an expert is required.

Pros

Awesome features to enable collaboration across disciplines in the design team. One source of data, everyone is working on the latest revision. Viewing capabilities for everyone - you don't have to have the program installed. Permission capabilities at varying levels - company and user levels

Cons

Complicated. Over complicated! Not easy to do simple tasks. Lots of settings and requirements before simple tasks are completed.

### "BIM 360 the platform that brings everyone together"

April 4, 2019

5.0

Overall experience was good I am pleased with the work carried out on the software and it allowed us to have direct contacts with all the contracors, designers and architects and whenever there was an update we are notified of any changes.

Pros

The best feature about BIM 360 is how all the designers contractors and architects are all bought on 1 platform and work together virtually to build a building from nothing. Easy to understand, quick updates and picks up any Clashes that have been detected.

Cons

The software is slightly complicated and does require some practice for use.

March 6, 2019

4.0

The project jobsite I was on did not use this software to the full potential. Our CM company did not allow us (GC) access to edit and create on the task and issues folder, restricting us from BIM 360 fields full benefits.

Pros

It easy to navigate and upload attachments.

Cons

The software is very slow when many people are using it. It would take me a very long time to upload/ schedule IRs when there was a rush hour of users.

Pros

I like how integrated everything is and how our whole team is able to work the the project together!

Cons

Although the system may be advanced, there's nothing you can do about the persons using it with the way they were taught. Kinda jams everything up.

### "PlanGrid Review"

October 30, 2019

Working as a remote PM it is convenient for my install crew and subcontractors to upload photos/issues to address with me and share.

Pros

The ability to share real time information with various parties. Working on ever evolving job sites, this made posting photos as progress was made easy.

Cons

Admin capabilities. Thinking that I could see all projects, and then having to request access to some.
