Autodesk Construction Cloud Reviews

Plangrid

Comments: Great. The app is extremely intuative so the learning curve is reduced and simple. Just looks more complicated then it really is.

Pros:

Document viewing the Field is a necessity. Linking RFI's and submittals to the drawings makes things clear and reduces misses during construction.

Cons:

Sometimes sync issue while uploading photos and documents while changing from WIFI to LTE. Sometimes the sync needs to be cleared and redone.

Autodesk Construction Cloud

Comments: Overall it was okay. The implementation team (3rd party vendor who sold the bundle to us) could have been better, but the product itself was overall good.

Pros:

The fact that all of the modules within Build, Cost Management, and Insight tie into each other makes it very easy to create Issues connected to RFIs to Plans, etc.

Cons:

Sometimes it can be a little clunky with how some items work on a desktop version, but not on a mobile version. In Meetings, for example, one can assign due dates and people to complete the action items on the desktop version, but you cannot assign people in the mobile version.

Not my favorite software

Pros:

Not really sure. I have to pay as a sub for my own subscription when a GC uses it and there is a ton of information on here that is never used that just jumbles everything up

Cons:

The fact that I have to pay to use this software as a subcontractor when there are so many other software's that the GC pays for so we don't have to. Lot's of products far superior

Excellent tool for collaboration in the construction field.

Comments: Our biggest use is Revit model cloud collaboration. We are attempting to use it more for document control.

Pros:

Many different features all in one location.

Cons:

Some of the features need work. Model coordination works well for an overview, but its lacking for extensive coordination. Docs specifications needs the ability for markup. And that's just a few examples. Overall, needs fine tuning, buts its been getting better each year.

Autodesk Construction Cloud

Pros:

The ease of uploading sheets and files to communicate with field staff is great. The new calibration tool improved accuracy now that you can set the scale and not relay on the 2 pt configuration.

Cons:

The BIM viewing errors out often. Viewing document on a mobile device is great you can search pretty easy. On a computer its nots as convenient. Sometimes zooming in on prints takes a while to load or needs to be refreshed.

Autodesk Construction Cloud brings new features

Comments: Overall I think that ACC is a welcome upgrade to BIM360. It offers better co-ordination tools for designers, and makes full use of rendering tools to be able to fly through models to identify clashes.

Pros:

The Autodesk construction cloud follows on from the successes of Autodesk BIM360. It is a simple to use cloud based system for hosting and sharing Revit models.

Cons:

Some of the features of ACC are a bit mystifying for someone new to the software. A simpler interface could solve this as well as better integration between the desktop and online viewers.

The Innovation of Teamwork through Cloud

Comments: Works very well after setting up the initial phase. Abit of Lag when working on big projects which is understandable seeing as you are working on the Revit Model between multiple users.

Pros:

I like how we are able to deploy a Revit model for multiple users to work at once. Very convenient and time saving when working on big projects.

Cons:

Can be quite difficult to operate when first starting out. Requires communication with the Autodesk Team to learn the software and the ability to remove unwanted Revit Models/ Projects.

Great software that comes at a cost.

Comments: A great software to use for constructions and AV installs. Price options can be very expensive.

Pros:

Amount of features is very rich. There are lots of information that you can easily access without having any issues. Such as measurements, list, mark-ups and more.

Cons:

UI needs more time to get use to. Especially for those that are used to other software. Some features are limited and require higher price options to unlock.

ACC will optimize your Project Workflow

Comments: I thoroughly enjoy utilizing this solution. I taught a class at AU and provide tips on usage.

Pros:

Ease of user and collaboration abilities

Cons:

Some functions and features to ensure easy communication are missing. Not a deal breaker, but would enhance the system

MEP Design Work

Pros:

I like the ease of navigating all of my projects.

Cons:

The interface is choppy and repetitive in some aspects.

Autodesk Review

Comments: Because Autodesk offers the greatest tools for designers and contractors, I don't care as much about the project and get more sleep. Overall, my experience has been positive and really helpful.

Pros:

Fantastic history set, markup functionality, document integration for submittal, punch lists—the list is endless. Very user-friendly interface that our field teams enjoy.

Cons:

Experienced experts may find the interface challenging to utilise, leading to frustration. PlanGrid is a haughty, self-serving company that declines to assist when necessary. I've filed complaints with the FTC and the California BBB.

Most impactful review

Comments: I can describe in a few words, the productivity and efficiency working collaboratively with the work and the office as a whole has been totally enriching.

Pros:

I think that the way of saving and organizing all the files in the same source of truth DOCS is one of the things that has made my productivity easier in my day using ACC. The second is BUILD, the connection between the field and our office. It has been one of the most significant advances in our work workflow on the construction site.

Cons:

I think that in BUILD the way the sheets are organized can be improved, recently you did an update on a way of organizing called collection, it's not bad, it has given me the way to find the shop drawings sets more easily, but after they are in the collection folder that I have created and I cannot take the sheets out from there again, you should create a simpler way to be able to locate the version set more easily, because it gets complicated when I have many, I take them out at least a week 8 shop drawings set, imagine there are around 32 minimum sets per month, it has been difficult for us on many occasions to find a particular set, that is, more than a filter is needed, so it is better to be able to organize by folders.

Useful Program

Comments: Overall i think its a great program but I've had a few projects where we cant use the construction cloud to its fullest due to knowing/navigating the program.

Pros:

Better form of coordination, clash detection between all trades

Cons:

Everyone in the project must know how to use Autodesk CC in order for smooth sailing

Happy with Autodesk CC

Comments: Overall our users are happy with Construction Cloud. We used to host our files internally but since moving to CC it has made a big difference as far as ease of accessing and maintaining files

Pros:

Safe and secure place to keep working files. It is great for onsite/offsite collabs. Easy learning curve for users

Cons:

It is pricey per seat. As with any cloud product, internet and product uptime dependency is always a risk

ACCurate Project Management

Comments: Future Project Projections, Documentation is able to updated and the previous versions are still there.

Pros:

Document Storage, Construction Document use, Time management, Cost management, Correspondence with Contractors and owners rep., Punchlisting.

Cons:

There is not I do not like about ACC. There are a few features that need polishing, but it helps substantially.

Autodesk is great!

Comments: Overall, I am satisfied with Autodesk Construction Cloud. I would recommend this product to other companies.

Pros:

I like that Autodesk Construction Cloud is easy to use and easy to teach to our employees. It keeps our projects running smoothly and it is easy to see what tasks we need to get done/

Cons:

I do wish the software was a little more mobile friendly and offered an "offline" mode for the times we have projects in areas with little to no cellular service.

Time saver and clearer collaboration

Pros:

I love that ACC is so easy to access in File Explorer, on a browser, and on a mobile device. It makes all the information available in real-time across teams.

Cons:

That everyone is not using ACC. Contractor adoption and knowledge of Build's existence could be better.

Well integrated and simple

Comments: Simple as it is, it is a cloud system which integrates our work with other Autodesk products. Wİth Autodesk Construction Cloud I don't need another cloud service for management of our projects.

Pros:

It gets our work synchronized since we use other Autodesk products in our projects.

Cons:

Recently there had been a server issue which interrupted our workflow.

Complete Construction program

Comments: great program for office and field to manage a construction project from the bidding to the completion

Pros:

it is very easy to navigate, interact with others, it is real time and can be used to update everyone on the job progress.can do takeoff, drawings notes, progress photos

Cons:

there are features that may need to be slightly modified to make it more user friendly.

Autodesk Construction Cloud

Comments: ACC is great for collaboration and coordination across all project stakeholders.

Pros:

Ability to link Revit models across multiple firms along with the ability to control permissions to data access.

Cons:

Performance related to viewing models in the web viewer can be combersome at time. The in ability for nested linked models to appear in sheet and model viewers is a major shortcoming.

Autodesk Construction Cloud

Pros:

It’s an essential program! It makes everything easier when dealing with a large projects.

Cons:

I have used Autodesk Construction Cloud for couple years and i had no problems.

Autodesk Construction Cloud

Comments: Overall it is okay when you think of letting the programm do its duty before you shut it down

Pros:

Easy to use and establish Programm with a lot of funktions for daily use

Cons:

Sometimes i have struggle with the connection so that the files ar not sync.

Easy and Efficient

Pros:

Helps streamline the workflow and improve collaboration and communication between the team.

Cons:

The lag time and customer support can be challenging.

Great Project tracking program

Comments: Overall I thinks its a great tool for project management.

Pros:

I like that i can see the project progress as well as keep all documents associated with said projects in the same spot for everyone to view.

Cons:

GCs expect that we all have experience in all of these various project management programs. they're all different in their own ways and usually difficult to navigate at first. There should be tutorial videos for each of these programs.

ACC for Future Projects

Pros:

Clash detection and notifying responsible members.

Cons:

Inability to group clashes effectively or add clashes to those already grouped.
