Considered Both Products	DYNSIM Dynamic Simulation No answer on this topic	Navisworks RS Radu Stancescu IT Chose Navisworks Navisworks is much easier to open all kind of models and assemble them together Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Navisworks Navisworks allows viewing of our model content with others to know whether our design is correct and can be assembled for final stage. As compared to Bentley software, Navisworks is good in terms of asset management, reporting, and analysis. Its model viewing and navigation … Incentivized Helpful? MG Meadow Griffin Project Specialist Chose Navisworks Revit Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Navisworks Navisworks is a master tool if we want to do any 3D model coordination with any trade of a building. It allows us to view our model content with all elements to visualize and understand for certain where our design stands in terms of accuracy and how all things can be assembled … Incentivized Helpful? JS Jenna Schonhoff Assistant Superintendent Chose Navisworks Navisworks does not have a mobile app or internal issue tracking but it integrates well with other apps. It's easier to navigate and run clash detection. The desktop program is more robust and offers more functionality. Incentivized Helpful? CR Chris Rippley Technical Project Engineer Chose Navisworks All of these products are pieces of the overall system. It is nice to have all of these portions all under the same main company. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Navisworks Navisworks is the go-to system for 3D BIM/MEP coordination. I don't know of many other options that are standardized/uniformly recognized as the base system in 3D coordination. Incentivized Helpful? christian Maxwell Project Engineer Chose Navisworks I have not used a lot of other software to compare Navisworks to but Revit is probably the closest to what Navisworks does. Revit is a lot more focused on the model creation and Navisworks is a bit more well equipped for reviewing and analyzing an already created model. Some of … Incentivized Helpful? Malhar Modi, LEED AP, CMIT Research Student Chose Navisworks It can integrate many different types of file formats of all types of design including architectural, structural, interior, MEP. It has good ability to make walk through videos and make it inclusion with the timeline. Clash detection is the main feature which sets it apart from … Incentivized Helpful? Lennart Andersson Director of Virtual Design & Construction, Senior Associate Vice President Chose Navisworks Revizto - no inherent clash detection but great clash detection reporting and issue tracking Synchro - 4D scheduling software that is much better than Navisworks in that space. Navis is the standard so no requrement to force new software on the project teams. Incentivized Helpful? RO Roelie Oelofse BIM Manager Chose Navisworks Our company only uses Autodesk software, so I could not find and alternative to Navisworks to match the functionality of Naviswork with Revit, Civil 3D and Plant 3D. The only alternative for us is to use BIM 360 Model Coordination which lacks the search and visual impact of … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Navisworks As described earlier, I really like that Navisworks is a desktop-run application rather than a web-based application. It runs smoothly and is relatively easy to use. Assemble's biggest negative is that because it's web-based, you often find yourself waiting for things to load. … Incentivized Helpful? William Cameron BIM Manager Chose Navisworks There is a few programs out there like Navisworks however it is truly one of a kind. Incentivized Helpful? Christian Bean MEP / BIM Designer Chose Navisworks BIM 360 Glue - Not as user-friendly and the fact that your orientation in the model resets every time you refresh your model drives me insane. I much prefer the Navisworks clash detection and file management. Incentivized Helpful? Aaron James BIM Manager Chose Navisworks I have not found any other programs that allow you to coordinate in the same fashion as Navisworks manage. Incentivized Helpful?

Likelihood to Recommend	No answers on this topic	Navisworks is a key tool if doing any 3D model coordination with other trades. It will allow you to view your model content with others to know for certain that your design is accurate and can be assembled. Navisworks also comes with a lot of additional tools to make this process easy. Incentivized Aaron James BIM Manager Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	Model Viewing, the navigation tools are really easy to use for walking through the model, especially if viewpoints are set up for key locations. The take-offs work really well and can be very quick and easy if the model was built right. Incentivized christian Maxwell Project Engineer Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	A link to BIM 360 Model Coordination is a serious shortcoming. It used to be easy to link to models loaded to BIM 360 Glue for more in depth clash detection. I would have liked the ability to export a simulation created in Navisworks to 3DS Max for a more immersive animation with decent material mapping and better animation tools. I would like to be able to view/create BIM 306 Docs/Field issues directly in Navisworks. In the current workflow we have to use other file formats to work within BIM 360. It would be more productive to be able to navigate the model through Navisworks and to create viewpoints and issues from within Navisworks. Incentivized RO Roelie Oelofse BIM Manager Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Users are very happy with it and hear no complains from them Incentivized RS radu stancescu IT Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	Autodesk gives several options for customer service on their products but they are a very large company it can be difficult to get prompt responses from them. Since that has been the case for me, we have additional support coverage through our 3rd party distributor. This gives us a better first response support team before we have to involve the Autodesk support team Incentivized Aaron James BIM Manager Read full review

Return on Investment	No answers on this topic	Our company spends a lot of time upfront coordinating projects, and the results in the field have shown that with substantial rework savings. At times it is challenging to get subcontractors to buy-in to the coordination, so it is written into their contract. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
