"Excellent all-around PDM solution"
5/5
What do you like best about Bild?

We have been using bild for just over a year and have been impressed by its simple and clean UI and clear set of features. It's always nice to be able to rollback any changes that break our models so we can easily find where the problems are. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great workflow, easy to use"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Bild?

Having come from multiple generations of Solidworks PDM, Bild is a breath of fresh air. The Windows desktop is a very simple clean interface. New comers to source control for CAD files are able to pick this up easily and the online web previewing also makes it easy to use for non-CAD members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bild?

Bild isn't without bugs, but so far they have been relatively minor things and tech support has been very responsive to my inquiries! I do find there isn't quite the same level of detailed access control, but it's easy enough to create a separate repo folder if you need to have access restrictions. Given the benefits that come with ease of use, I'm willing to accept this tradeoff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Much better than Pack and Go's!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Bild?

Bild has made it easy for my team to be able to share SOLIDWORKS files without the hassle of having to pack and go each assembly. Iterating design has gotten much easier and faster which is exactly what we were looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bild?

Bild did have some stability and naming issues early on, but the team is on top of updating the software, and over a short period I have already seen a massive improvement. There still are smaller stability concerns I have but overall it has been a good experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Phenomenal Product! Couldn't recommend more"
5/5
What do you like best about Bild?

Overall, this is the most mature and easy to use PDM software out there. Buttery smooth UX and the team has been incredibly responsive to our requests. We didn't have the right integrations and the team delivered it the next month!! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bild?

Nothing really - the PDM product can be more mature in lineage for some of my larger teams, but it really is a great solution. Startup so I expect the product to get better as the company grows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use PDM"
4/5
What do you like best about Bild?

The ease of use and the program is a straight forward thinking. It is a PDM we want and this is what it is, not too much of functions so you get distracted.

The team of BILD is amazing to work with and listen great on feedback, if we miss something they are willing to improve and add functions for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bild?

It happens in rare situations that the scrolling on a page bugs up, it do jump back up all the time. Only needing to re-fresh or restart the application, then everything is up and working as it should. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent GrabCAD replacement"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Bild?

Easy to manage and not as intrusive as alternative PLM solutions. Their customer support is excellent and very responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bild?

For now, it's a CPU hog. Their tech team has released updates on a regular basis and the load times and processing times have improved dramatically. However, the CPU consumption still remains very high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nice cloud PDM software"
5/5
What do you like best about Bild?

Bild is flexible in how you can implement it. We have found ways to easily implement systems that are important to us and can not implement functions that are not important for us.

The implementation was fast and easy, we are able to submit solidworks and binary files for control. We use the design library for parts, but also for templates and other documents.

We have implemented automatic part numbering, but setup our solidworks files so that we can also over-ride the automatic part numbering easily by entering a part number (this is sometimes helpful for certain customers or COTS items).

We chose BILD because of how lightweight and flexible their system is. It fits our business well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Bild?

The software is still early in it's development so there are minor issues, or features that could be better, but overall it is a good product for a SMB. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
