Navisworks makes it easy to navigate through our project models and find clashes and buried MEP's.

The color appearance is not real, and that's not good. Everything is basic colors. Looks crappy. If I extract the model to Navisfreedom, when reviewing time some welding joints cannot appear in the 3D model.

Trimble connect is easy to use for collaboration between operation ,designer and drafter. Eliminate reworks caused by clashing and reduced double works from operations and drafter.
