The Revit interface is highly sophisticated but the modelling is quit rigid and can be extremely difficult to attempt to creatively explore ideas within the software.

While Autodesk has been attempting to improve the 3D modelling capabilities, the free form modelling capabilities often falls short, meaning early stage design ideas are often explored in different mediums or softwares like SketchUP. The team collaboration feature across the project gives the flexibility for professionals even in different fields to communicate aspects of the model until the project is complete. Vectorworks is able to match aspects of Revit’s BIM capabilities however this is one area in which Revit has the advantage.

One of the main features used within Revit is its team collaboration to allow multiple contributors to one file.Īs Revit enables the full construction process as well as modelling the design, it has become one of the prominent software with the construction field for project managers and site mangers along with the architects.īoth CAD softwares supports a model centric workflow where a 3D model of the design is created and all linked analyses is extracted from the model by the software. Revit offers features for each aspect of the design process required by CAD software from parametric modelling, scheduling and internal rendering. Unlike Vectorworks, Revit is not split up into different products however Revit’s features are categorised by the industries that use the software. In this article I will compare the different features, prices and my personal experience with both options to decide whether Revit or Vectorworks is the CAD solution for you? What Is Revit?Īutodesk's Revit is a multidisciplinary BIM software typically used within the architectural and construction industries. However, since joining my first practice Vectorworks is now the software I use as my 2D/ 3D/CAD programme. During my education at university the software of choice for computer aided-design was Revit, mainly because thats what was offered.
With all the options now available it can be difficult to decide which software is the best tool to create your design ideas.
Thankfully, these days there are now many different CAD/ 3D/ BIM software packages now available each with their own specific style and uses for Windows and Mac OS. In the early days of Computer Aided Design (CAD), there were limited choices of CAD software applications and a few that dominated the market. This left users with only those options to choose between for their software of choice.
