### "Revit is the best in civil and mechanical design market"

December 1, 2022

5.0

Amazing experience. Great software which helps mechanical, civil and electrical engineering as well. Solving infrastructure designs and get a great views and sections.

Pros

This software is the best in the construction market and very easy to use. 3D drafting & BIM analyzing are the best features of Revit. We could manage and include the infrastructure modeling and solving clashes and extract the 2D drawings for each utility and for any purpose.

Cons

Requires the recommended PC processor and RAM size, otherwise it will waste your time and work.

### "Powerful, but space consuming"

February 4, 2021

4.0

Overall is definitely positive. Program allows students to learn basics (and more) of architectural design. Some more expansive tutorials would be nice as only beginner workflow has really proven useful for students.

Pros

It is very easy for beginning users to become quickly proficient by following tutorials. The software is also very robust. Students can design, furnish and create renderings/walkthroughs all within the same program. They can also import any components not included in the software from a number of support pages as well as some vendors who have created .rvt files of their products that allow it to be put into the space digitally with all correct measurements.

Cons

Very robust, but takes up so much disk space it sometimes freezes computer before even opening. A LT version may be beneficial, but an entirely online version, even if it's a "light" version, would be preferred. Students aren't using all available features so it would be nice if the education version took less space, so students could have access on computers other than the one lab with enough computing power to run the software.

### "Future is here"

October 17, 2019

5.0

BIM will certainly change the construction industry in ways we cannot fully appreciate yet. Revit is of the best solutions that are pushing this revolution forward.

Pros

\- Game-changing and full-featured building BIM design software (Building Information Modeling) - Simplified the design process beyond belief from the days of AutoCAD - Quantity take-offs are now byproducts of the building model, not a separate business process. - With BIM (Not only Revit) the plans, sections and quantity take-offs are all dynamically related. Any change to one of them is immediately reflected on the others - Works well for Architectural, Structural, HVAC, and MEP modeling. - Easy to use yet very capable. - Seamless integration with other Autodesk solutions (NavisWorsk, Robot .. etc.) - Plenty of training resources online.

Cons

\- The price is too steep for companies in developing countries especially since it uses an annual subscription for each user.

I still use AutoCAD for sketching but for anything new which matters, Revit is the way forward. BIM is the way forward and after using Revit for 5 minutes anyone would realize that.

### "ça vaut bien le cout !"

June 6, 2023

5.0

Pros

C'est pratiquement le meilleur logiciel que j'ai utilise pour mes projets en architecture. Facile à utiliser et compatible avec d'autres outils de dessin. Si vous intégrez le 3D au 2D dès l'étape de la conception, alors c'est le logiciel qu'il vous faut.

Cons

Pas facile d'obtenir un beau rendu fini avec Revit mais je l'utilise avec d'autres logiciels pour mes rendus visuels

### "If you can afford it, why not..."

July 26, 2022

5.0

Pros

Revit, with all its capabilities, will definitely make your draughting process more efficient and as we all know, "time is money," so therefore efficiency is key. Ever since I started using Revit, I have been able to shave off quite a bit of time off my draughting process, which means that in my small business, I am able to take on more projects. Because changes on one view, are instantly in effect on all affected views, I am far less stressed about my deadlines.

Cons

Currently, a major con is the price of the software. Considering that I am in a developing country, the price is very steep. As I do not work for a major company and I only work on small architectural projects, the price is definitely a major drawback.

Switched from

[AutoCAD](https://www.capterra.com/p/265024/AutoCAD/)

With AutoCAD, the draughting process takes longer as one has to make changes individually whereas with Revit, changes on plan, section, elevation ect. are instant.

### "One of the most best softwares to learn and get professional skills"

April 19, 2022

5.0

I like it so much it helped me improve my overall skills and experience.

Pros

I could say that Revit is one of the most best softwares to learn and get professional skills in modeling and BIM especially. Have so much engineering details that make using it more professional.

Cons

Revit BIM is extremely useful for engineers and architects beginners and professionals but it is a little more complicated to use for interior design purposes as it is difficult to view and edit designs from an interior perspective

### "Powerful software application for Civil Engineers"

February 21, 2023

5.0

It generates construction documentation directly from the building model. With Revit, users can create detailed plans, sections, and elevations that are linked to the building model. This ensures that the documentation is always up-to-date and accurate, which can help to reduce errors and save time.

Pros

Revit is a powerful software application that is widely used in the architecture, engineering, and construction industries. Its main strengths lie in its ability to create 3D models of buildings, and its comprehensive set of tools for designing, documenting, and collaborating on building projects. With Revit, users can create accurate and detailed building models that can be used to visualize designs, make changes to designs, and communicate design intent to clients and stakeholders.

Cons

It requires some training. One should have a high end configuration or else the rendering will take a lot of time.

### "The best Bim Tool"

May 5, 2023

5.0

The Revit is the best software for the floor plans, architectural and structural drawings.

Pros

Revit has the best Bim tool , it has the option to customize the parameters and the visual coding using the Dynamo

Cons

The Price of this software is too costly compared to other BIM software, and also we have to use other plugins to get the good renders.

### "Excellent 3D / BIM software "

February 17, 2019

5.0

Revit software has greatly improved a number of important areas: 1) much easier and faster 3D preparation and presentation, and 2) great improvement in technical drawing speed.

Pros

Revit is structured to create buildings and structures immediately in 3D. It is ready to go "out of the box" with a great variety of built in components (walls, floors, roofs, stairs and more). The model can be viewed in 2d (plan, elevation, and section) at the same time as in 3D. Compared to other similar products, Revit has a very high level of accuracy. Revit models can be exported to a wide variety of other disciplines. Revit has excellent 3d shading and realistic modes. It also has a strong rendering engine. Great outside sources of additional building components are available.

Cons

Revit models can become quite large. Obtain a copy of file transfer software (many are available free online) to send and receive Revit models.

### "Revit"

May 5, 2022

5.0

It does provide a basis for coordination of design elements. Construction managers and subcontractors still need to provide coordination, but in the future the onus should be on designers to coordinate elements so that conflicts are a minimum when the model is handed off to the construction guys.

Pros

It is the defacto standard for 3 dimensional modeling. I see more and more architects and engineers use it for design and not just coordination. In the future I see this replacing ACAD as the drafting tool for designers.

Cons

While more and more designers use this tool as their drafting software, they still do not coordinate the different elements such as architectural, MEP items. They still leave that up to the construction managers to coordinate.

### "Una buona opzione per il BIM"

January 26, 2023

4.0

In generale è un software comodo da usare per creare modelli BIM e per gestire grandi progetti. Per attività più raffinate è spesso necessario usare altri software

Pros

È un software BIM ben integrato con altri programmi Autodesk. Le principali funzionalità sono abbastanza intuitive e la grafica è pulita e semplice

Cons

Modificare modelli e famiglie o aggiungerne di nuovi non è per niente intuitivo. Il software occupa tanto spazio e i file creano tante copie che riempiono memoria nel pc. Le funzionalità de esportazione e di creazione di render non è la migliore nel mercato

### "Best 3D modeling software i ever used"

December 26, 2020

5.0

Revit helps me to draw 3D visualized models of house plans. Specially for civil engineers, this software is one of the best visualizing software which can freely downloaded form internet. Very user friendly & attractive software. I highly recommend this software for civil engineers.

Pros

Revit can easily download from internet. It can use to draw 2D or 3D visualized models. Revit having user friendly interface. Best thing is it having lot of templates which are suitable for our designs. Also we can easily add other features like reinforcement data & material data easily without any other third party software. If you are a good engineering designer , you can use revit to enhance your abilities with the aid of this software.

Cons

Revit use considerable storage usage for install to your computer. Also it uses some amount of memory of computer. So that if you have older version computer, you may feel uncomfortable sometimes.

### "Easiest design software for both CAD and 3d MOdelling"

May 14, 2023

4.0

Revit has helped take the space planning work to a whole new level and also has boosted productivity and turn around times for providing 3D plans to the clients.

Pros

The ease of making plans in 3D is unparalleled and far superior to others. It is very easy to make 2D/3D plans and also apply finishes from the inbuilt library.

Cons

Some essential features such as the rendering fall behind and it feels very clunky and unusable, forcing us to rely on a 3rd party render software.

### "Large Learning Curve But Worth It"

April 27, 2021

4.0

If you're an aspiring firm who's growing and taking on more than they have in the past, this is a great software to look into. Be warned, it will be a higher initial investment, since you will likely want to add-on premade template packages alongside taking time to learn the software. However, once everyone has had time to get acquainted and workflow is setup, this is an amazing tool that can have your productivity soring.

Pros

While being a smaller firm, we understand we could make do with software such as Sketchup since it's relatively cheaper and can absolutely get the job done. However, in our office's experience, the second you have more than 2 people in your office with more and more projects on your plate the more of a time and money sink it becomes having to keep track of coordinating all of your models. Revit, especially with BIM 360 cloud storage, is an amazing asset to have when it comes to collaboration and sheet creation. We also love to use Enscape with Revit to produce our marketing material.

Cons

There is absolutely a learning curve that goes into taking on this program. Not only will you need time to get accustomed to speaking Revit's language and recognize its quirks, but you'll likely want to invest into premade templates and families since the defaults available on Revit aren't quite at a presentation standard. (Also, there's an example of the the language thing I mentioned; families can be anything from doors, fixtures, casework, etc.) Beyond the initial setup, there's still aspects of the UI that aren't exactly intuitive, but there have been improvements made over the years but it's still far from perfect.

### "Best in Class Professional Architecture Design and Construction Software"

July 18, 2020

5.0

I use Revit (Architecture) every day from schematic design through construction administration, for quick design exercises, client presentations, and of course construction documentation. It is the industry standard for producing clear and accurate documentations and can be customized to show any level of detail required.

Pros

Revit connects design and documentation seamlessly, allowing design changes to be reflected in construction documents as soon as they are modeled. Currently, it is the only software capable of efficiently 3D modeling with construction accuracy, while also allowing for CD level detailing without excessive 2D line drafting.

Cons

Because it is the best in class software, it comes with a hefty price tag. Some operations can be finicky and difficult to learn, but it is so widely used and frequently updated, that it's easy to find learn how to do anything you may need to do for a typical architectural project.

I've learnt in the University and I'm still using it in my work life.

Pros

The way Revit organizes information is amazing. The parameters and the ease of use. It's great for CAD too. It's amazingly reliable and helps a lot during the whole project and construction process.

Cons

I would like it better if it wasn't so expensive. I believe it is a bit hard to learn in the begining.
