Overall Satisfaction with PlanGrid

I used PlanGrid to manage and implement construction plans during the building of tenant improvement spaces for clients we worked for. Our company used PlanGrid on a project by project basis. I felt that PlanGrid addressed issues for smaller projects that we needed to make changes and markup on the fly with regard to tenant improvement spaces and undefined scope from the clients.
  • Easy to use interface, primarily for use on iPad.
  • Load project quickly when accessing from the cloud.
  • Ability to auto read the drawings and complete hyperlinks.
  • The cost to use PlanGrid is on a per sheet basis that can be cost inhibitive, especially on smaller projects.
  • More capabilities to make edits to documents other than construction plans.
  • PlanGrid has made it easier to document in real time.
  • PlanGrid has made sharing documents with others easy and seamless.
  • The cost can be harder to justify for smaller projects.
PlanGrid doesn't have all the capabilities that Bluebeam Revu offers. However, it makes up for that in its ease to use of the capabilities it does offer with regards to documentation, reviewing, and sharing of drawings.
PlanGrid is well suited for construction projects that require daily input from field users as the interface on an iPad is very intuitive and efficient. PlanGrid works well for projects that need to be well documented and shared among other team members and clients alike. Overall, I am satisfied with the overall experience of using PlanGrid.
