It''s been 14 years since Revit formally began knocking on the doors of architectural firms. The first response quite often was, "We''ve already got {insert your software here}, no thanks"! Which was then followed by "Oh gosh, you mean it doesn''t do "X" just like {insert your software here}? Other responses were, "Really?

I written many, many words in my blog and upset at one point or other almost every major player (design or construction firm, software developer and HR provider) that there is. Why do you ever settle for AutoCAD? I made enemies and secret admirers. I get open treats and couched support messages. Let me make some guesses, why that is.

The important thing to keep in mind for collaborating with your architectural clients is communicating what they can expect of you and developing new procedures in house to deal with a single Revit project file instead of multiple DWGs or DGNs. AutoCAD is record albums and ABS is CDs. How Fast Can I get up to Speed?

The first thing is I dont think the next big innovation will really be in what we might call the traditional "CAD (Computer Aided Design)" space. We have Autocad, we have Sketch-Up, we have Revit, and all the various permutations thereof.

When you have a large project and you want multiple users editing a project at the same time you have to impliment Worksets because Revit typically keeps all project data in a single project file unlike Autocad where we typically separate the project into multiple files.

Revit Systems debuted early this year giving MEP engineers a third choice of CAD technology to use; it may have also caused a bit of confusion on what software is really the best for any given firm. No matter what software you are using, they fall into three general categories: digital drafting, object oriented and parametric.

When Revit Systems was released in 2006, the essence of Autodesks marketing commentary was, "this is new software so it probably doesnt make sense to tackle a project with it unless the architecture team is using Revit too." We dont have to assume the burden of modelling the architecture or structure to get something out of the effort.
