What do you like best about Navisworks?

because it allows you to open and combine 3D models, navigate them in real-time and review the model using a set of tools that includes commenting, redlining, point of view, and measurements, it generates a wide variety of add-ons to optimize the design Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Navisworks?

Complicated to learn and costly. In addition, being a file-based methodology, it has the disadvantage that access to data is unlimited. The tools offered to manage collisions are limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
