Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I and my team have used Revit on a trial and hit basis to explore the tool's functionality. The sole reason was gaining a deep knowledge of Building Information Modelling (BIM) in a more collaborative environment and Revit fits perfectly. This digital design software has helped our students to gain insights into structural designing in a collaborative manner.

Pros and Cons

Differentiating 2D and 3D designing.
Realistic visualizations that relate to real-world applications.
Repository of design elements to plug and play.

The application is not intuitive and while editing it can be a tedious task as most of the perspectives are isometric.
Integration with 3 party elements can be an added feature.
Rendering process is slow and can be made little quick.
For every section there can be a tutorial link on how to use this feature.

Return on Investment

Energy efficient design solutions.
All digital and no manual interventions.
Amazing visualizations of structures.

Alternatives Considered

Likelihood to Recommend

The best suited environment for Revit is where the design has to be turned around within a few days or weeks. As the application has collaborative features other users can also use it. For me, it is best suited for shop drawings or simple building designs.
