**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Construction | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 19, 2019

Easy startup of the process and fast data capture allows projects to obtain a very quick ROI.  Their attention to the customer success has been phenomenal.  The ability to establish a partnership in which we are able to suggest ideas and see those put into operation has been both a benefit to our organization but also a benefit for the industry.

Software is always an evolution and at this point, they have done everything well.  There really hasn't been any shortcomings of the platform that we have not been able to solve with teamwork .

What I love is the ease of use, and the value added to projects. 

**What do you dislike about HoloBuilder?**

I cannot say that I dislike anything , there is always room for improvement to any software and any product.

I'm sure the more I use it the more I will have better success.

We really like getting all the angles that we were previously missing. Each time we needed an area we were missing it!

it feels like another layer to BIM 360, it could probably blend a little better!

It is much easier for all stakeholders to have a visual of the current status of the construction site. Sometimes getting only a % of completion does not say everything!

  ### 8. Great software to keep track of your project!!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** alan r. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 24, 2018

**What do you like best about HoloBuilder?**

Holobuilder is great to track your construction project progress. Definitely a great tool to have. My company has been incorporating the Holobuilder program on most of our projects and everyone is enjoying it. Easy to work with, you will be set up in no time, the Owner love to see pictures of progress from week to week (as we take pictures weekly to show progress) the fact that you can turn around and see pretty much a global picture of the surroundings, is very impressive. Amazing work by Holobuilders to come up with this great solution for tracking progress via 360 high resolution photographs. No need for flashes or worrying about lighting, camera works awesome regardless the weather.
Happy client over here!

**What do you dislike about HoloBuilder?**

The camera mounted in the hardhat is a great ice breaker!

**Recommendations to others considering HoloBuilder:**

Great investment, good to track progress in your projects!

**What problems is HoloBuilder solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The benefit of seeing progress of a single point of view is to be able to keep track of what happened from start to finish.
For construction, if you need to mount a TV and your walls have been closed off and finish, you need to make sure you have the right amount of blocking in your walls. Let's say no one remembers where the blocking ended up inside the wall? No worries, go back in your Holobuilder photos to the time when the walls were exposed and you can see exactly where the blocking is at. Perfect solution. As mentioned before, definitely will recommend Holobuilder to fellow peers in the industry.

  ### 9. Superior Product

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kevin Z. | Board of Advisors, Telecommunications, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 21, 2018

**What do you like best about HoloBuilder?**

I love how pictures captured from the field are uploaded into the platform in real time.  This allows us to see immediately what is happening in the field on the job site. 

**What do you dislike about HoloBuilder?**

It is tough for this question as to when there is something I dislike, the Holobuilder Team works to resolve issues quickly.  I suppose at the moment, lack of horizontal measurements.  This is something they are working on improving in future updates though!  So this dislike won't last for long.

**Recommendations to others considering HoloBuilder:**

Admittedly, Holobuilder may not be for everyone.  That's okay though because you a get a no hassle, risk-free trial of Holobuilder.  You have nothing to lose to try it out and see if this application is one that can improve your business. 

**What problems is HoloBuilder solving and how is that benefiting you?**

With Holobuilder we were trying to come up with an efficient and cost-effective solution to streamline our closeout packages.  By adjusting some internal processes and use of Holobuilder we were able to reduce the overhead cost of creating a closeout package by a whopping 75%. 

  ### 10. It takes practice.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rachel B. | Director of Operations  | Senior Associate, Architecture & Planning, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 09, 2018

**What do you like best about HoloBuilder?**

I really like to updates to the app.  Now that I can control the camera from my ipad, while inside the app, documenting my project is very fast and easier to keep up to date. The new time travel keeps track of where I have taken images while I am in the field so everything is updated. 

**What do you dislike about HoloBuilder?**

My complaints are more with my camera.  The camera is slower than the app now.  I would highly recommend that you regularly check your camera for firmware updates and make sure your device is up to date before heading out to the field.  It will help you avoid a lot of frustration. 

**Recommendations to others considering HoloBuilder:**

Don't be afraid to use their customer service, they are great. 

**What problems is HoloBuilder solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is great for the architectural staff at the office to check existing conditions.  It is also great to use in design meetings when we are discussing solutions. We also share the 360 link with the construction team. 

  ### 11. Quick and simple to use

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Isaac K. | Co-Founder, Architecture & Planning, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 27, 2018

**What do you like best about HoloBuilder?**

It's intuitive to use. You can quickly walk the site and capture the existing conditions of the job site and share this with the world via a web browser. Viewing in a web browser means that clients do not have to download and install other software.

**What do you dislike about HoloBuilder?**

The Camera wifi connection can drop in and out sometimes. However, this is probably a limitation of the camera, not holobuilder. 

**Recommendations to others considering HoloBuilder:**

If you want a product that you can quickly capture existing conditions with and share with others, holobuilder is a good choice. 

**What problems is HoloBuilder solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We capture existing conditions quickly, and holobuilder allows us to share the data with Architects promptly and efficiently. 

  ### 12. Great Program with a ton of potential!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** James T. | Graphic Information Specialist, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 18, 2018

**What do you like best about HoloBuilder?**

Easy of use is the biggest plus to me. Changing functions and icons is pretty simple and the  360 video comes in very clean. 

**What do you dislike about HoloBuilder?**

Lack of customization for visual designers is my only complaint. With the ability to customize colors, sounds and icons, this program will be amazing.

**Recommendations to others considering HoloBuilder:**

Its a great product and the developers are very open to improvement. With time Holobuilder will be a staple for VR development.

**What problems is HoloBuilder solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I'm developing training modules for a client. The ability to convey a lot of information visually is amazing.

  ### 13. Deadly Bad

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

I like the interaction buttons that allows you to jump from app to app and redirect to social media. Also that the buttons are customized.

If you are planning to display on a IOS device be aware that it so hard to press the buttons that you program.

So Far None!
