Revit Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Revit to do all of our engineered designs for buildings. We also have customers that use it so we are able to collaborate with them to completed designs seamlessly. Revit also has wonderful integrations so we can complete projects is ease and not have to do manual set ups each time.

Likelihood to Recommend

Revit is well suited in all aspects of architecture and MEP engineering

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Revit is used to create architectural drawing sets as well as to test programming and concepts. I use Revit almost daily and it is integral to our work.

Likelihood to Recommend

Revit is the ultimate software for doing for architectural drawing sets. There can be issues collaborating in a 3D model on large teams but it is the best option out there. It is good for existing building documentation, drawing details in 2D and 3D views. Great for looking at conflicts between building and MEP trades.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I usually use Revit for reference in my rebar datailing. Most of the time, I use it for structural purposes. I also issue floor setting out plan in my project using Revit structures. This was really a good software because it made our work easy with the software's tools. It is an advance way to see the hi rise project that we handle in detail by looking at the 3D model using Revit. You can also incorporate different trades in Revit such as architectural and MEPFS. By this way, you can easliy see clashes between the different trades involved. You can also convert your Revit file/model into pdf and cad file for other purposes you might be needing. Revit also allows you to work simultaneously with other modellers. This is one thing I loved about this software. You can even create rebar family in Revit so you can detect actual clashes in rebars to be installed on site. All in all, this was really a good innovation in the construction industry. This will ease the burden in the site and provide an efficient way to execute the plans in the different projects that you were handling in your company

Revit is an innovation in the construction industry. It provides exceptional 3d redering/modeling of different structures. The software allows multiple users to do the modelling at the same time. It helps to view the plan more detailed to help in actual operations in the site were the project is executed.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Revit quite often as an architect since it's one of the most used BIM process based software. It is not as intuitive as other ones but it permits to do many things. As a restoration-oriented researcher in the field of architecture it also permits a very easy interface with point clouds acquired by laser scanner technologies.

Likelihood to Recommend

Revit is a highly effective programme for creating BIM models. It allows for effective management and interaction with point clouds, and its strong point is undoubtedly the creation of parametric families. It also has a function that allows users to work on a project simultaneously, even remotely, and enables the creation of realistic renderings thanks to the possibility of connecting very powerful rendering engines. Equally important is the fact that students, teachers and researchers can access free versions.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Revit to model interior design intent for a commercial project. It allows us not only to design models but also to store information about the project and all its specifications for the design. Additionally, it enables us to visualize the design in 3D using Enscape and obtain realistic renderings for our clients.

Likelihood to Recommend

Great for quickly getting ideas into actual, realistic models. Although it requires a lot of coordination, it is a relatively great tool for group collaboration, allowing multiple people to work on the model simultaneously. Sadly, Revit is not a great tool for modeling unique complex designs compared to other programs like Rhino.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Revit is the main program our firm uses in our day to day work activities. It is utilized to create design options, renderings, and final construction documents for clients. We have used Revit to create drawings for projects as small as 100sf to projects that house manufacturing and lab uses and are a collaborative effort with outside firms.

Likelihood to Recommend

Revit is very well suited to creating designs and construction documents for standard buildings. Buildings that need to utilize phasing in their construction process are also well suited to this software.

Revit is not as well suited to buildings that have irregular shapes or components that need to be highly detailed.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it to design houses and smaller projects for in house use. It makes it really nice because of the flexibility it offers and the features to produce the outcome we want. We customize our projects to meet our needs and Revit makes it easy and does a great job.

Likelihood to Recommend

It has a huge library of products to import into the model. It is very easy and user friendly to operate. I did find it difficult to make paper layout but when we had everything standardized it made it easier as well. It has some great 3d rendering options to give detailed views ans perspectives.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I'm thrilled to be using it, but I'm not rating it at ten stars because of its appalling cost. One license is nearly $400 monthly, making it unaffordable for small businesses. At this cost, I want to look for alternate solutions that will work and I hope some soon can compete with Revit.

Likelihood to Recommend

The cost is too high, which limits legitimate users. By keeping costs this high, they also limit the number of professionals using the software. If it weren't so expensive per month, it would be far more widely adapted in areas such as audiovisual security and low-voltage. I don't think they understand small businesses' very, very slim margins.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

At our firm, we employ Revit extensively for both interior design and core shell modeling, finding it to be an invaluable tool in our workflow. Typically, our process begins with the integration of a CAD file representing the space we're working with, which we then seamlessly transition into Revit for further development. In essence, Revit serves as the cornerstone of our design process, facilitating seamless collaboration, precise modeling, and informed decision-making. Through the integration of CAD files and the utilization of tools like Design Options, we're able to leverage Revit's capabilities to their fullest extent

Likelihood to Recommend

When I have more than one Revit file open my laptop processes slowly and everytime I open enscape it tends to crash and I loose my work. If Revit could save automatically before crashing it would be really helpful.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Revit is used to produce documentation (plans, sections, elevations etc) for construction projects. Unlike AutoCAD, Revit is model-based and not linework-based, meaning the way to work with Revit is to create 3D elements (like walls, floors, beams and columns) which will then show up on the various views they intersect with. This allows users to quickly update many views at once by directly editing the 3D model instead of having to modify the views one by one.

Likelihood to Recommend

Revit is particularly well suited for multi-story buildings as the 3D model will allow you to quickly create all the plan views and elevations you need for your projects.

For one-story buildings, the advantage of being able lessened as it can be as fast to manually draw the linework as it is to model the buildings.
