Autodesk InfraWorks 360 Reviews & Product Details

It allows civil content to be quickly imported and population in a 3D model. Great to add with revit buildings to get a general idea of site grading and roadlayouts work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The bing map backgrounds are sometimes out of date and not the best for finished presentations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use, many configurations/options to edit settings and powerful visual graphics of the 3D infra model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Requires a powerful graphics card for the visuals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Infraworks provides a good starting point to develop site models for visualization projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integration with Revit could be improved. Currently, its not possible to directly connect topography from infraworks with a toposurface in Revit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be used for conceptual design and is an excellent tool for creating a visualization of the proposed project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It cannot be used for an actual detail design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The rendering capabilities of the software is amazing, besides the abality of clash detection Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the processing time and the high requirements of hardware to run the software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the things that I like the most about Infraworks is that it is very user friendly. The learning curve to Implement this software is considerably shorter than many of the other softwares that Autodesk has to offer. Another thing that is really high on my list is the interoperability between softwares. Being able to bring in many files from different sources is key as we are not guaranteed to be on the same platform across the board in a project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main thing that I would say is lacking in the software is a library of components. While it is simple to go into Autodesk Formit and create some massing shapes to accommodate what you are trying to portray. If there was a more robust Library right out of the box I think that it would get more people up and running considerably faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very easy to use and get started. It provides a great starting point for design and site layout. It can also provide an extensive background for existing context. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface can take a little getting used to. It can be a challenge to export the elements you need and keep the model organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am using Autodesk InfraWorks 360 from 2016, its combine GIS/BIM platform for Preliminary design and Construction project, where one can create the Proposed Site Model for Resedential,Highway design, port planning etc, in no time,, ITs very flexible software to integrate any type of Site data, building models and utilites data from various sources in spatial refrence , to view in 3D dimensions and aslo top create Scenic presentation for client reviews , before the project is to be built.

Anything i dislike about this is detailed analysis , but i hope Autodesk is adding that feature too in Future , to become a single modeling and detailed design softwares for Civil Engineering projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

3D Models with Topography

To import Revit/Sketchup

To build roads on the top of created topography

To be able to create different design options Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

3D buildings are not high quality and high resemblance to the site.

Export to Lumion and other rendering softwares not available Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find InfraWorks most useful in looking at large site grading exercises. It has allowed me to quickly zero in on first floor elevations for terminals in a large trucking facility that minimized cut/fill. Much more quickly than traditional methods. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Needs improvements - for example road intersections in the middle of a horizontal curve where the travel lanes change width are not created properly, Alignments cannot close on themselves. Both of these items occur frequently in commercial developments. Having lanes cross the center alignment is also needed - for example a left turn lane that is positioned to the left side of the alignment. Wish it had better parcel tools - for land subdivision.
