3.5/5

Good 3D review software for BIM wirh plenty of options, clash detection amd filtering capability, wide format compatibility including IFC, great for walkthroughs and even supports simulation & rendering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its not very user friendly, especially for beginners. It demands high performance PC setup viewing/rendering large complex models and its RAM hungry! Unlike fee of its counterparts, large models take lot of time and can lead to poor performance! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are using Navisworks to manage, review and render 3D BIM models of projects and to showcase it to clients. Also, its used for clash coordination. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In construction Engineering on site ongoing work it take lot of changes in plans if that is not well plan .

Preventing from all these mess we use Naviswork software that helps to clashes free between all the services Including AEC and MEP.

What do you dislike about Navisworks?

1. There is no autosave highlight while keeping the fix and re-try succession unblemished.

2. There is no element to trade clashpoints back to the base documents, for example, "Revit", "AutoCAD" and so on.

3. There ought to be a component to eliminate joins from combined "NWD" models that are added overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Navisworks solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's 3D viewing modes and posible cordinate to how much distance if we move the services that will clashes free is good thing.

"Best for clash detection and collaboration"
5/5
What do you like best about Navisworks?

In Naviswork, I mainly use the clash detection option, which is very helpful for me to keep my Revit file healthy.

Navis also helps in clash coordination with other departments like MEP & architecture.

In Navis, you can do simulation and comment markups as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Navisworks?

Sometimes Navis shows the same clash multiple times or some false clashes, which significantly causes trouble.

Like Revit, we can't take any desired element in 3d view in a single click. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Navisworks solving and how is that benefiting you?

Navisworks is very helpful in detecting clashes between complex models.

It provides a walkthrough which is very helpful for me in coordination.

It gives detailed reports of clashes with element id, which helps find the clashing elements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
