Overall Satisfaction with Revit
In my current role as a general contractor office, I utilize Revit to view and access the design intent models from architects, and engineers. Our department has about half a dozen people and we also create supplemental models to provide additional useful information for 3D coordination. Previously, I worked for a design consultant where I prepared construction documents for commercial and private businesses, as well as private residences. In my previous job, the drafting/modeling department was just me with two to three other engineers.
Pros
- Unified modeling (actual objects rather than lines)
- Decent out-of-the-box templates.
- Basic Rendering
- The ability for multiple people to work together on one model.
Cons
- Ballooning of file size, and error management
- Inability to save to the previous version
- It's allowed our department to access the native design files.
- We can create construction models based on the design files.
