"Power tool for projects"

4.5/5

What do you like best about BIMobject?

BIM Object is a renowned website to download families in different formats; the best feature of BIMObject is its variety of contents; most of the elements are available there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BIMobject?

Sometimes keyword search doesn't match; however, we can find the family there, so sometimes it becomes a tricky task to download the families from there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The first place to look for a Revit Family"

4.5/5

What do you like best about BIMobject?

One of the best things about Bimobject is the number of files that it has. There are thousands of files to choose from, and most times, they have what you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BIMobject?

Oddly enough, the same pro is also the con. With so many items to choose from, it can be hard to find what you want even if you filter it down. That and something may not be in the category you thought, making it challenging to find content from time to time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BIMobject:

If you are trying to find something and you are having trouble, be patient as it very well still could be in there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BIMobject solving and how is that benefiting you?

Finding Revit families that I can directly link into my current project. With the construction industry changing so much on the BIM side, having access to great content is a must anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"BIM object Review."

5/5

What do you like best about BIMobject?

I use BIM Object all the time when working on my Revit projects. I love that it's free. Also, it's very easy to use. There's thousands of Revit family files on the site as well as AutoCAD drawings and PDF spec sheets for many different products to be used in building design architectural, structural and MEP related items. They now have a desktop app which I use as well as the Revit plug-in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BIMobject?

There's nothing I dislike. They have many products but, occasionally I can't find what I need and go directly to the manufacturer's website. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A pretty complete and easy to use library"

5/5

What do you like best about BIMobject?

BIMobject makes searching for a specific product pretty agile and fast. I like particularly using the 'Filter' option so I get a fast way to get to the producer or category of object I am searching for. Also being able to save objects to your own BIMboard is quite nice. It is something I didn't use in the beginning but have recently started seeing it positive sides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BIMobject?

I kind of dislike the BIMobject Mail. I would find it a lot more useful getting whatever kind of messages in my own personal/professional mail that I used to register in BIMobject in the first place. I also find it a bit annoying getting mails of the type 'Thank you for downloading our...' etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BIMobject:

I would recommend other users to always use the 'Filter' option and to always, always filter by 'File type'. I have made the mistake at first to not do it, so it has happened a few times to me having been searching for a product some time to find the one I consider 'perfect' and only to find it is available for other softwares but not for the one I needed it to be. Lesson learned! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BIMobject solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am basically using BIMobjects to search for a Revit families. Since now almost all the producers that have developed their own BIM library have a connection with BIMobject I find it a lot faster to go to BIMobject, filter by the specific producer and see which of his products are available in a Revit format. The old way was going to the producer's webpage and search there directly but since a lot of producers still don't have all of there products in Revit format, but instead some yes and some only for AutoCAD, it took a lot more time.

"Best quality BIM models available here"

5/5

What do you like best about BIMobject?

Accurate true dimension and specification models are available for download. These models can be used for up till LOD 500 (facility management). The variety is great & we find almost all the families used in our project.

We have been using BIM object now over 10 years and have been satisfied with the content provided. I like the that each year new content is uploaded for the modelers.

I would recommend BIM objects to all industry people who are working on BIM platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BIMobject?

Should also include non manufacturer(generic) families to increase the database. Currently on manufacturer content is being modeled and placed. while this satisfy majority of requirement but at times we cant find few objects and need to search on other portal.

Sometimes Rvt format is not available & only CAD is available. This waste our time to search on the portal Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BIMobject:

BIM object has the most extensive library of BIM models. You can search from the categories or the search bar to find the object and download it with ease. It is available free of cost to the user community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BIMobject solving and how is that benefiting you?

Readily available model speed up & increase project quality & deliverables. Instead of creating models our self we can simply download these from BIM object.

The quality & the usability of models are great. Only experienced users can do such a fine job.

Our design documents start looking professional and neat. All the elevations & layout for Building design start looking good by adding these families due to the detail provided in each family.

Moreover different formats are available for the same 3D model for downloading thus the user can work on any software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excessive model geometry and data for average design project"

3.5/5

What do you like best about BIMobject?

I can have a likely real product model to start to work with with standard dataset Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BIMobject?

Designers usually do not need manufacturer models, usually overloaded with geometry, details and many useless data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BIMobject:

The objects are quite far of what is needed in a project than needs huge amount of time of manual edition of geometry and data to make it work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BIMobject solving and how is that benefiting you?

If I am in a hurry I can find models from manufacturers, specially MEP, windows, doors, finishes, furniture Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
