    Revit is hands on and easy to learn. Very accurate and great for construction documentation. One can create in 2D and have elevations, sections and 3D views ready. So it is very helpful to visualize. Drawback - It is comparatively harder to draw curves and spherical …

    To be perfectly honest, every architectural firm I have ever worked with was also using Revit. Revit (and Autodesk) has a monopoly on the AEC industry, so I didn't choose to use Revit. The industry as a whole made that choice. There is just no competition out there at this …

    Revit has more features in compare to another software like AutoCAD. The more features get you more flexibility in your work and impact your time management. The more you do in less time and the more your quality with this software. So I think Revit is going in a good direction.

    When we talk with different clients, they can't visualize what we want, having Revit with its 3D tools can give a very accurate presentation for the design along with the clash detecting if many disciplines worked together on the same project. Also, it allows for previewing a …

    Revit is great for documentation. I also use Rhino 3D for rapid prototype scenarios that can be imported in, but in the end everything should be documented in Revit because it really is easy.

    Revit is a more creative tool compared to others software like AutoCAD. More people can work simultaneously on Revit files but in AutoCAD only 1 person can work on 1 file. File management of Revit is good whereas in AutoCAD multiple AutoCAD files are created for the same 1 …

    Revit is one of the most powerful tools in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction Field. It is outmatched by none. There is definitely a learning curve, and it cannot be picked up by an average employee and learned without formal training. Revit can do more on the …

    There are really no competitors to Revit for large complex building projects. It is essentially an industry standard, and we would not be able to complete our work or collaborate with our consultants effectively if we did not use Revit. AutoCAD is still used in the office for …

    Revit has more architectural design functions, which work for rendering the structures into a polished style. SketchUp is unlikely to be used for a large structure modeling, more towards the interior design or small model demonstration. SOLIDWORKS is a more generalized software …

    AutoCAD was great back in the day but had such a wide range of uses. Revit is based in construction and runs better for that function because of it. If I was to have to switch back to AutoCAD I cannot imagine how much more time I would have to spend in order to produce the …

    AutoCAD, MicroStation. These are both good programs but they are limited to two dimensions for the most part and I choose to use Revit for its ease in working in 3D, annotation, and organization. If you are looking to have a consistent good-looking set of drawings in 2D or 3D, …
