Navigating Construction Excellence and Elevating Construction Project Management

5.0 last year

Pros:

It has a Robust project management capabilities, seamless integration of BIM and construction data, real-time collaboration features, mobile accessibility, comprehensive document management, and the ability to streamline workflows across various stages of construction projects.

Cons:

There is a gap in learning curve for new users due to the software's extensive features, occasional technical issues or bugs, and the need for continued training and support to fully utilize its capabilities

Autodesk Construction Cloud

4.0 last year

Comments: Overall it was okay. The implementation team (3rd party vendor who sold the bundle to us) could have been better, but the product itself was overall good.

Pros:

The fact that all of the modules within Build, Cost Management, and Insight tie into each other makes it very easy to create Issues connected to RFIs to Plans, etc.

Cons:

Sometimes it can be a little clunky with how some items work on a desktop version, but not on a mobile version. In Meetings, for example, one can assign due dates and people to complete the action items on the desktop version, but you cannot assign people in the mobile version.

Alternatives Considered: Procore

Reasons for Choosing Autodesk Construction Cloud: We needed something more robust as we grew from smaller remodeling projects to large ground-up construction projects.

Switched From: GiddyUp

Reasons for Switching to Autodesk Construction Cloud: Less expensive and could do everything ProCore did.

Not my favorite software

3.0 4 months ago

Pros:

Not really sure. I have to pay as a sub for my own subscription when a GC uses it and there is a ton of information on here that is never used that just jumbles everything up

Cons:

The fact that I have to pay to use this software as a subcontractor when there are so many other software's that the GC pays for so we don't have to. Lot's of products far superior

Autodesk Construction Cloud brings new features

5.0 3 months ago

Comments: Overall I think that ACC is a welcome upgrade to BIM360. It offers better co-ordination tools for designers, and makes full use of rendering tools to be able to fly through models to identify clashes.

Pros:

The Autodesk construction cloud follows on from the successes of Autodesk BIM360. It is a simple to use cloud based system for hosting and sharing Revit models.

Cons:

Some of the features of ACC are a bit mystifying for someone new to the software. A simpler interface could solve this as well as better integration between the desktop and online viewers.

Autodesk Construction Cloud

5.0 last year

Pros:

The ease of uploading sheets and files to communicate with field staff is great. The new calibration tool improved accuracy now that you can set the scale and not relay on the 2 pt configuration.

Cons:

The BIM viewing errors out often. Viewing document on a mobile device is great you can search pretty easy. On a computer its nots as convenient. Sometimes zooming in on prints takes a while to load or needs to be refreshed.

Alternatives Considered: Procore

Reasons for Switching to Autodesk Construction Cloud: We started with PLangrid so the switch was pretty simple. Procore is a little more expensive at the moment.

ACC got it ALL - be it Preconstruction, Design, or Field!

4.0 last year

Pros:

ACC has become a one-stop-shop for all our projects, ranging from managing and coordinating BIM models, managing design development, quantity take-off to project management needs such as RFIs, Submittals, Schedules, Meeting Minutes. It has become a catchphrase in the company whenever someone asks: "Where can I find it? It's on ACC, of course!"

Cons:

Some of the tools still have too many clicks to go through, for example Forms, Photos, Submittals module. Once someone gets the hang of it - all things totally make sense. However, since these modules are frequently going to be used by our field teams, we might need to make these features a bit easier to use. And I know, Autodesk is continuously developing these features by collecting feedback from multiple sources, which is great!

ACC For Coordination

Comments: I am glad that we have this program, I like sharing live models and coordination.

Pros:

It helps create coordinated models with our clients and easy to see updates when they happen.

Cons:

There have been a lot of updates from Autodesk, so sometimes it's relearning where and how features work.

Real-time collaboration on construction projects.

5.0 last year

Comments: In the company where I work (multinational), it allowed the team to improve times and to have an idea of the progress of the work on a daily basis.

Pros:

It is a very complex platform that centralizes everything from plans, technical sheets, schedules and others. It also allows users to visualize the modifications made in real time.

Cons:

The cost allows large companies to acquire it, but not small ones. In addition, it requires training of all personnel for a better use of the platform. However, its benefits are highly measurable.

Pros:

Ability to link Revit models across multiple firms along with the ability to control permissions to data access.

Cons:

Performance related to viewing models in the web viewer can be combersome at time. The in ability for nested linked models to appear in sheet and model viewers is a major shortcoming.
