## Trimble AutoBid SheetMetal Reviews
  ### 1. Easy to keep track of where you are

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lou S. | Estimator, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 31, 2019

**What do you like best about Trimble AutoBid SheetMetal?**

The most helpful thing I like about Trimble Sheetmetal is that when you are in OnScreen View you can always see what you have already accomplished on the drawing on which you are working.
It is also very easy to overlay addenda drawings to see where the engineer may have mad routing changes.

**What do you dislike about Trimble AutoBid SheetMetal?**

I did not like it when they disable the return to previous view from any saved views.

**What problems is Trimble AutoBid SheetMetal solving and how is that benefiting you?**

There are fewer chances to miss important sections of ductwork over graphical (digitizer) take-off as you always have the drawing as the background of where you are working.
