Softdrive Reviews
Pros
I like working with people that a fun to work with, and [SENSITIVE CONTENT] has been wonderful to work with. He has helped us every step of the way.
Very easy to implement; excellent value for money and its incredibly reliable even when the internet connection isn't great.
Integration was super easy, and it felt like I was working on a local machine pretty much right away. I really enjoyed using soft drive and I would recommend it to anyone.
Great way to have a powerful workstation with outstanding network speed for remote workers.
Cons
That's really the biggest inconvenience though so to me Softdrive is more than worth that short term inconvenience.
At the moment Softdrive does not have support for microphone or webcam which makes meeting a little bit of a hassle, but they have said that these features will be coming within the next few months.
The only bad things I experienced integrating to/using soft drive were user error.
If the internet is slow, it can make using the virtual machine difficult and cause it to lag.
"Great product and fantastic customer support."
Overall: Overall very happy with our partnership with softdrive.
Pros: Software is easy to deploy and use. Very customizable, team worked with us on our specific requirements and customer support has always been top notch.
Cons: None that i can think of at the moment. Most of our concerns were resolved within the first few months of using the product.

"Flexible and Convenient"
Pros: Softdrive is a great platform for anyone looking to have a dedicated machine they can access from anywhere! I keep forgetting that I'm on a virtually machine and not my laptop. It has been very stable for me and the users that we've deployed machines to. Keep up the great work guys!
Cons: At the moment Softdrive does not have support for microphone or webcam which makes meeting a little bit of a hassle, but they have said that these features will be coming within the next few months. That's really the biggest inconvenience though so to me Softdrive is more than worth that short term inconvenience!

"Softdrive - Revit Experience"
Pros: The system is capable of running large Revit Projects in excess of 100-200mB in file size, of course depending on the Package you pay for. But in the case you intend to use Large projects with this system it is more than capable.
Cons: The Multi-Monitor mode needs to be updated to have the choice of choosing certain monitors to display Softdrive while leaving others to display the original Device you used to access Softdrive remotely. Currently the system only allows for all screens to display Softdrive or only One screen.
"Pros and Cons"
Pros: The ability to free up resources on my office/work computer is really nice.
Cons: Needs the ability to create PDF's. Softdrive occasionally will lose connection but I am able reconnect quickly.
