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.

  • The feature of Clash control to ensure that all systems are coordinated appropriately is the best one.
  • The Live updates between design teams keep them up to date for quicker design and free up personnel from having to do file transfers.
  • It can store construction data/documents, 3D BIM architectural models, structures & temporary works.
  • This software allows Revit models to be stored and collaborated on in the cloud.
  • This software does not integrate with all other software well.
  • Its not User friendly and you have to invest time to understand it well.

  • New update shows project location and weather similar to a phone widget
  • Loads relatively fast compared to other document storage options
  • Easy to navigate and simplistic platform is perfect for its purpose
  • Small functionality issues like using the search bar and exiting but needing to move the cursor over and click on search bar again for every search. Unsure why the screen moves after searching and this takes extra time when you are making multiple searches in a row.
  • Top toolbar shows logo very small and clicking on project doesn't lead to general project info- which I think would be helpful

  • Allows office personnel to efficiently coordinate with other trades.
  • It allows field personnel to make decision on the fly if changes need to be made to the originally coordinated designs.
  • A little more user-friendly interface for taking measurements on the tablet would be helpful.
  • A better way for the field to upload pictures to specific points on a drawing.

  • Provide access to updated contract drawings on the iPad and desktop applications.
  • BIM collaboration with Revit files.
  • Drawings load very fast.
  • CAD file collaboration is unstable.
  • Can not search the text of drawings or specs to find words. This is a huge deal breaker.
  • Cannot zoom in all the way on the drawing to see details blown up.

  • BIM 360 allows Revit models to be stored and collaborated on in the cloud.
  • Bim360 is extremely unintuitive and frequently confusing to end users.
  • There are multiple avenues of sharing and collaboration for models and information. The advantages/disadvantages of each and how to perform even the most basic of tasks requires extensive training and mentoring for even the most advanced of users.
  • There are many enormous limitations and constraints to BIM 360 that are not immediately obvious and even contrary to published marketing materials and even product naming.
  • Development cycles of the product are seemingly monthly, but incredibly minor. This makes the desperately-needed and glaringly obvious massive usability, capability, and performance improvements into deal-breakers and hair pulling events. Change cannot come fast enough.
  • There are no integrations into Microsoft's Azure AD SSO or other 3rd party SSOs available for SMBs. This makes the provided MFA a huge headache for all SMBs.
  • There are no integrations into the Microsoft 365 ecosystem for SharePoint/OneDrive or Outlook. This is desperately needed for most organizations using Bim360.

  • Live updates between design teams. This keeps the team up to date for quicker design and frees up personnel from having to do file transfers.
  • The cloud-based platform gives your company a little bit of a break on computer requirements.
  • Allows multiple offices and/or cloud-based consultants to collaborate on a design as if they are one office or one company.
  • The ability to rebuild a model cannot be done. You have to rename the original file and then reload a new model.
  • When you roll back your file using history, it deletes all the history back to the rollback. It would be nice if all it did was bring the history file up to the current.
  • It would be nice for your files to automatically update to BIM360.

  • Storing construction data/documents, 3D BIM architectural models, structure, MEPF, and temp. works.
  • Users can review visual models, combine them together, markup issues, and respond/add notes to the model's authors.
  • We use Bim360 Field to hold safety works and QAQC works by establishing work checklists, which we use on tablets. For each item, we can select Check, Open, Approve and Close.
  • Can easily manage revisions/versions of data and documents.
  • Bim360 Field should be available on other tablets, not just the iPad
  • Bim360 Doc and Field should extend sharing permissions--of issues, images, information--to outside users (not just Bim360 users) via email

  • Not a thing, as so much as a well developed interface. For those of whom struggle with technology the interface is pretty straight forward with very little room to get lost.
  • Offline compatibility. It allows for usage in the field where there typically isn't wifi, so you can get work down or communication shown on the drawings, inspection or anything else set up on your system and sync when you get into wifi. Practically real time changes.
  • Ability to edit. The format to set up your docs, edit the drawings and make this platform your own tool is incredible.
  • They need to ability to link drawings with in the platform, that is very frustrating.
  • Overall more linking abilities to cut down on back and forth from webpages.
  • A better editing feature for meeting minutes and exporting all reports, very cookie cutter like.
