I find Bluebeam to be a very robust tool. If you think it can be done, it has it—like a toolbox. Overall, there's just about nothing it can't do. When it comes to PDF editing, there's the tool callout, custom tools, and the ability to draw, edit, comment, do multiples of things including adding additional layers, and mark out. It's quite the Swiss army knife of PDFs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its interface is not the most intuitive, and it is quite slow to load. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Bluebeam is how much more efficient it makes construction document review and collaboration. The markup, measurement, and takeoff tools are very accurate and straightforward to use, and features like Studio Sessions let multiple team members review plans together in real time. It also keeps drawings well organized, makes it easy to track revisions clearly, and saves a huge amount of time during project coordination. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main downside is that Bluebeam can come with a bit of a learning curve for new users, especially when it comes to the more advanced tools and settings. It can also feel expensive compared to basic PDF software, but for construction management and other professional use, the added functionality and the time savings make it worth it.

There should be a separate Filter command. It is very cumbersome to use Filter option from Markups List Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Doing take-offs with using the scale feature as a pre-construction manager/planner it really helps me tendering the projects and get the quantities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software uses so much RAM and you do need a strong laptop. It crashes multiple times - especially if you are working for files over 30mb. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s simple to use, and the UI is very easy to navigate. The app performs okay overall, but it can freeze at times. It’s honestly fairly priced, and there are many different ways you can use the program depending on what you need. That said, integrating outside items isn’t very straightforward and can be confusing. On the positive side, the support is top-notch, and they’re very willing to assist when you need help. Also, there is no artificial intelligence with this program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It doesn’t have any built-in AI to help with searching, takeoffs, file snipping, and a lot of other tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Bluebeam is that it is very easy to use and practical. It has a wide range of tools that make it a very useful software for my work as an electrical estimator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I don’t like about Bluebeam is that sometimes the documents turn blank while my markups remain on the page. I don’t lose the work, but it’s frustrating to have to transfer everything again. Also, the program occasionally crashes, and lately I’ve been losing all my default tools and have to recreate them from scratch Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
