Users have found Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro to be an invaluable tool for various use cases in the construction industry. One key use case is its role in facilitating collaboration and coordination among project teams. With BIM Collaborate Pro, subcontractors can easily share BIM models and drawings with stakeholders, enabling efficient collaboration and preventing clashes before on-site execution. This has proven to be particularly helpful in resolving conflicts and ensuring that there are no clashes in the field, ultimately improving project outcomes.

Another significant use case of BIM Collaborate Pro is its contribution to quality control during construction progress. By providing a digital solution for managing inspections, observations, and issue management, the software streamlines quality control systems and reduces paperwork. This enhances efficiency by allowing quick accessibility to large data storage, reducing the number of punch list items that need to be addressed at the end of a project. Additionally, BIM Collaborate Pro's document management feature serves as a centralized location for subcontractors to access relevant contract documents, reference materials, and BIM information. This improves organization and accessibility, leading to smoother project workflows.

Furthermore, BIM Collaborate Pro has been praised for its positive impact on safety management on construction sites. The software facilitates collaboration among subcontractors by addressing safety requirements and root causes, ensuring a safer working environment. Its ability to store data such as checklists and safety documentation digitally allows for quick accessibility and reduces the risk of missing critical safety information.

Lastly, BIM Collaborate Pro plays a crucial role in client communication and understanding through visual representations of information. The software's capability to share visual models and drawings with clients enhances communication and helps clients grasp complex concepts more easily.

Overall, Autodesk BIM Collaborate Pro proves to be a versatile tool that addresses various needs within the construction industry. Its features enable collaborative project coordination, problem detection, issue resolution, quality control improvement, enhanced safety management, streamlined document management, and effective client communication.

I used this software almost every day and recommend it to subcontractors all the time. It is best for the design professional and not for the construction professional. Collation of data at project completion was the major benefit of this software which was backed up by the ability to attach evidence at checklist creation. BIM 360 is a building information modeling product that offers to share data and project designs. There is not much that I dislike about this platform at this time but this software can sometimes be very slow when trying to synchronize and that could make you lose time in your design.

Autodesk Bim 360 is well suited to the majority of construction projects in my opinion. On the construction side I could see how the straightforward nature of the platform would be well liked. The new update with the widgets is a great touch and allows for ease of site visits by showcasing good to know info like project location on a map and the local weather. You can also customize the "widgets" as you see fit to add more information if necessary to the home screen. From my experience as a LEED consultant, Bim 360 does not differ much from other platforms used for submittal review like Procore. It is easy enough to search for what you want but searches do take a while and you need to move the cursor over every time you search and do not find what you're looking for, which seems very unnecessary. Overall it is fine for reviewing documentation but isn't anything extraordinary.

Field use is extremely helpful. it saves a lot of phone calls with questions back to the office. When 2 trades need to coordinate who has to move, it is a great tool for the conversation and speed of coming up with a solution that benefits everyone. It keeps the decision easy for who needs to relocate.

Bim360 is well suited for hosting drawings and sharing normal sized files with people. Most subcontractors are now using PlanGrid and other software which do not contain the "posted set" so they do not have all the RFIs they are supposed to proceed on unless they open docs and match the posted that the GC has done on docs. This results in them always chasing/updating the posting set, falling behind, and building old work.

Bim360 is well suited for collaboration of Revit models with other organizations. It is not appropriate for much else in its current state, but the potential for greatness is there for many aspects of project management and CA.

It is great to track punch list items and closeout issues. It is good for infield use and is an easy to use app. We rely on the software not only for clash detection, but also for visually communicating information to clients in an easy to understand manner. I have not personally used the software for commissioning, but I am interested in trying it so we can link to our 360 Glue Revit models.

The best scenario BIM360 is suited for is when you have multiple consultants working on a project. Another good time is when you use a sub-consultant on a project and the sub-consultant needs live access to the files. A scenario where it is less appropriate is when the design team is in the company or when live updates are not necessary.

  • Setting up documents that will be used over and over again as checklists or inspections.
  • Viewing drawings in the field with the ability to switch to other relevant documents quickly.
  • Viewing models, not editing so much but the ability to view, rotate and conform it to show needs or information requested.
  • Not appropriate for bidding, controlling a budget, or handling submittals.

I think BIM360 is an excellent tool for quality control and in field model viewing for construction purposes. The checklists, issue generation and punchlist tools are amazing and you would be hard pressed to find a better quicker and simpler software for these tools. The daily reports and drawing storage and viewing are not BIM360's strongest fields.
