User Testimonials
	FARO As-Built	Navisworks
Likelihood to Recommend	FARO Technologies, Inc. No answers on this topic	Autodesk 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	FARO Technologies, Inc. No answers on this topic	Autodesk 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	FARO Technologies, Inc. No answers on this topic	Autodesk 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	FARO Technologies, Inc. No answers on this topic	Autodesk Users are very happy with it and hear no complains from them Incentivized RS radu stancescu IT Read full review
Support Rating	FARO Technologies, Inc. No answers on this topic	Autodesk Autodesk owns Navisworks, and it seems to have a pretty good support network. A lot of the troubleshooting or support information is provided through an online database, so you most likely would not be getting any personal attention with your issues. Since there are so many users for Navisworks, there is a lot of information on the web. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	FARO Technologies, Inc. No answers on this topic	Autodesk 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 on site. Navisworks also comes with a lot of additional tools to make BIM process easy. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	FARO Technologies, Inc. No answers on this topic	Autodesk It helps in coordination on BIM projects. We have had major project coordination saving millions on jobs. Helps us win more projects as we can coordinate them Used to use the animation tools for site logistics. Now we use game engines.
