Recommendations to others considering Site3D: It is cheap to install. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Site3D solving and how is that benefiting you? I have used it for a while and it really saved me time in designing compounds and creating elegant designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great tool for preliminary design. Some scepticism due to its automatic features, but hoping to be proven wrong. So far enjoying it and was a speedy solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Site3D? I would like to see the option to determine your own way of displaying items for long sections, cross sections, drainage schedule and earthworks. Dropdown boxes for setting up project specific values. S38 or S278. Speed of road which then determine certain K values, crest and sag and shout when it out of tolerance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Site3D solving and how is that benefiting you? Road design, drainage design. Speedy solution with dynamic changes and quick export. Room to improve but this is true for all design softwares. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Site3D is a very easy to use and intuitive application at the same time. Thanks to this application, I am very productive because I can divide my projects into different time fractions. The best part is that I can make designs quickly and easily modifiable in case I make a mistake or want to tweak something. Another positive point is that when modifying an element of the 3D model, the rest of the elements move and adapt automatically. I like that when I place an element, it interacts with others, so I know what its effects are. Finally, I like that I can view the projects from different perspectives in 3D and in plan or aerial view, allowing me to see the vertical alignment of the elements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Site3D? The worst part is that some of the tools and options offered by this application are not very developed and can be improved. I also don't like that this application does not support some formats when saving projects. The resources offered by the site are not useful either. The technical support is not multilingual, so it's difficult to communicate the problem. It is a program that, for me, seems excessively expensive for what it offers compared to other programs of the same type. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Site3D: You don't need to use a next-generation computer for it to work quickly. Very good tool for viewing architectures and structures from different perspectives. Also very useful for creating pieces. You have to try this fantastic program! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Site3D solving and how is that benefiting you? It helps me to quickly and easily review the design of the models. It also helps me to design some 3D plans by adding roads, wells, mountains, lakes, rivers... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

FA Francisco A. Director Civil Engineering Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 9/16/2018 "A new piece of software that is on its way to replace some of the established civil engineering soft" 3.5/5 What do you like best about Site3D? Very easy to use even if you have never used any highways design software before. Very quick with some design elements such as junctions and roundabouts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Site3D? There are some tools and features can can be improved: drop kerbs, cut and fill analysis etc. But more importantly, the lack of a "3D polyline" element. We should be able to draw a polygon and simply assign a level to each one of the points of the 3D polyline. The earthworks tool is tedious to use and sometimes it doesn't give the right answer. The drainage tool can also be improved and its data updated to the latest revision of SfA. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Site3D solving and how is that benefiting you? Specially suited for the design of residential schemes and much quicker than other civil engineering design software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 7/13/2018 "Perfect for residential design, roundabouts are incredible!" 5/5 What do you like best about Site3D? The dynamic updating of roads/junctions saves so much time for us. Creating roundabout designs in Site3D is a dream compared to using other products available out there. Site 3D is very intuitive and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Site3D? Cut and Fill tools need to be expanded further so you can get into more detail but so far many of our suggestions have been taken on board and updates come out on a regular basis so i am sure it will keep getting better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Site3D solving and how is that benefiting you? Main benefit of the software for us is time. Layout updates have always been a big problem but as Site3D is so dynamic updating your design becomes a much less arduous task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We appreciate how easy it is to test different designs and environmental conditions. This is a very important part of our safety assessment process and other software has not facilitated this process as well as Site 3D does. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Site3D? It would b nice if it accepted more file types. We typically use DWG files and they need to be converted using another piece of software before they can be uploaded to Site 3D. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Site3D: Highly recommend for smaller companies very useful in tandem with any safety and environmental assesments Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Site3D solving and how is that benefiting you? Simple to train engineers on site 3D as it is functionality similar to AutoCad (which many engineers lean in university). Also appreciate that a basic license is free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Show More Current UserValidated ReviewerIncentivizedSource: G2 invite GS Gareth S.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Site3D? It would be great to be able to customise the appearance of long sections and change the order or how information appears.

There are plenty of help videos available on Youtube as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Site3D solving and how is that benefiting you?

I like how quick and accurate this software is. The design of housing and foot-ways seem like fluff but actually help to create a full visually understandable image. It also helps make the design look more professional and real. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Site3D? The UI seems outdated, and the graphics are pretty basic. Although the functionality is there, this tool is only an engineer/ technicians tool as the finally product is not visually that appealing. AKA you will still have to hire a graphic designer if you want to show these designs to prospective buyers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Site3D: This tool does what it is supposed to and doesn't crash that often. A good tool for the belt. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Site3D solving and how is that benefiting you? Planning out new subdivisions and where roads and sidewalks will be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
