Bluebeam Revu Erfahrungen

Blue beam review

Kommentare: It is my preferred PDF editor and I constantly use it to make edits

Vorteile:

It is very user friendly and very intuitive. The dashboards are set up similar to acad and I can draw pretty well. The editing features are also top notch.

Nachteile:

It is a bit pricey for a PDF editor. You can get adobe versions much cheaper and while it maybe less functional, the adobe programs do work ok.

Bluebeam Revu

Kommentare: I was a little hesitant at first when my company switched from Adobe to Bluebeam, but now that I have gotten use to the program I would never want to go back to Adobe.

Vorteile:

It's easy to mark up PDF files. In the construction industry, we make markups on blueprints and submittals. It's also easy for material take-offs with the measuring tools.

Nachteile:

I still haven't been satisfied with all the toolbars and their locations. I have a tool bar on the top, side and bottom and I haven't figured out how to make it so I can just show the tools that I use the most.

Ease of use

Vorteile:

Bluebeam has lots of useful editing tools.

Nachteile:

Bluebeam sessions are not easy to access.

Bluebeam is a great markup tool

Kommentare: Great, it made working from home possible and an easy tool to share / track live markups between offices.

Vorteile:

Ease of marking up a PDF document, functionality of searching documents, and comparing 2 documents.

Nachteile:

I wish you could separate the settings and tool chest to a separate window

Bluebeam Revu raving results

Vorteile:

Once I learned how to use it there was no going back to Adobe. Blue Beam has management tools that improve review speed and accuracy.

Nachteile:

Thelearning curve if you really want to use the product the correct way.

Blue beam review

Kommentare: very good for certain things without having to open up cad

Vorteile:

take off made easy and not having to print anything off

Nachteile:

the task bars seem very confusing and time-consuming to setup

Untrustworthy Developer - Dropped the ball

Vorteile:

Brings a lot of features and functionality missing from Acrobat. To my knowledge, no other PDF software is geared towards the A+E market. I wish there was another one out there so that these guys didn't have a monopoly on the market. It has given them a sense of invincibility that has led to stagnation and a lack of genuine support for their customers.

Nachteile:

I've been using Revu for about 8 years, 5 of those on Windows. The last 3 are at my most recent job, and when I found out that Bluebeam had created a Revu for Mac, I was quick to push our company to adopt. I even gave a lunchtime presentation to show everyone some of the really powerful features I had come to know and love from the windows side. Playing with the trial version of 1.0, though, I quickly realized that a ton of features were absent from the windows version. I went ahead and gave the presentation anyway, though and with some convincing, we bought seats for everyone. It became clear within the first week of using the software, though, that it was incredibly slow. So slow as to be unusable. It took several seconds to render every page... considering that we regularly deal with 100+ page architectural sets, this made the program worthless in a lot of cases. What's more we really felt the lack of some features from the windows side, many of which were so basic that it's laughable that Bluebeam decided not to invest in them. You can't crop pdfs for instance. Anyway, when bluebeam for mac 2.0 came out, we bought in thinking that we'd be getting all of the features that we were missing along with performance improvements. Turns out they decided to revamp the UI with almost 0 feature inclusions. The performance of page rendering was significantly improved, which was helpful, although page thumbnails now no longer load.

Bluebeam for Document And Comments Management

Vorteile:

Bluebeam Revu’s robust PDF editing tools, precise measurement capabilities, and customizable markup features make it excellent for detailed document review and collaboration.

Nachteile:

The software cannot handle large size PDFs and shutdowns for no good reason.

Heavy duty PDF editor

Kommentare: With a production factor of this software is amazing and that would highly recommend it for anybody who marks up documents as a team especially. I would be cautious the program loses connectivity often enough to where it affected our workflow. Uncertain days nobody in the office. Could do anything for an hour or two because their server is having issues and it would constantly keep disconnecting.

Vorteile:

It completely replaced printing documents for review in our office. I like all the editing capabilities and how well you can have your entire team edit a document live even if they're working remotely. The sessions feature is amazing.

Nachteile:

The worst feature about it is that it is cloud hosted so whenever you lose connection your dot turns red and it's not super noticeable. And if you happen to close the program while it's offline, you lose all your changes.

I Recommend Bluebeam

Kommentare: It is an excellent tool for reviewing drawings and organizing reports in a clear manner.

Vorteile:

Marking up drawings and also being able to create a shared document for multiple users to mark up make this a strong tool that allows AEC professionals to go digital and avoid printing.

Nachteile:

Tools that allow me to draw straight lines on documents would help.

BlueBeam Revu Review

Kommentare: I would highly recommend Bluebeam Revu over almost any other PDF reader/modifier. Its simplicity is refreshing. I think that if more people knew about the product they would switch from Adobe.

Vorteile:

Bluebeam is simple to learn and use. There are so many handy tools, and I don't even use a lot of them in my line of work but I know others who do. I particularly like the cloud tool to bring attention to revisions, but also like the text editor and the ability to scale from a set of drawings by picking two points with a known dimension.

Nachteile:

I think most of the tools are really great, but I would like to see a few more options for shapes that can be drawn. I use some of them to create easy to read legends for a particular set of drawings.

Bluebeam User

Kommentare: Extremely satisfied with the use and functions. I recommend it to all my co workers.

Vorteile:

I like the PDF editing feature and the way you can insert and extract pages.

Nachteile:

The search feature can be overwhelming. I think that can be made more simple.

Great Software But Needs To Be Available To Mac Users Again

Kommentare: Very good, just disappointed it's no longer available on mac. It was by far the best for everything we do as a company and now we can't use it.

Vorteile:

The take off function and ability to add comments was extremely useful

Nachteile:

The licensing expired on Mac, so new employees are unable to use the software which is a huge issue as we had three members of the commercial department using Bluebeam and we had to change when another three employees joined the team as we can't collaborate unless all on same software.

Powerful software with limits

Vorteile:

Able to manage and manipulate multiple pieces of construction information. Useful to quickly design markups in a more time efficient manner than autocad

Nachteile:

Runs into software limitations when advanced use occurs

Game changer

Vorteile:

I like how bluebeam make the takeoffs so much easier especially the count tool combined with the search tool that will make our estimate easier to price up.

Nachteile:

I think the length tool should be more subject to edit so i can personalized the feature or the looks

Action tool for a Document editor

Vorteile:

You will be notified via emails when you have access to project and the file.

Nachteile:

When the system fails ,I was not able to figure out , and had to reach out to the Bluebeam team for clarity.

Bluebeam usages

Kommentare: Bluebeam was a software that is user friendly and effective. The functions that I used help make my workday easier.

Vorteile:

Bluebeam is a great software necessity, It helped me get organized and was easy to operate

Nachteile:

Bluebeam's take off functions were basic but efficient. It allowed me to get through the jobs easily.

Great for takeoffs

Kommentare: It has been a joy.

Vorteile:

I have used this for years and it the easiest program to learn.

Nachteile:

Sometimes it is wants freeze up. You have to restart.

Every construction company should be using this program!

Kommentare: I loved it. Used every project. Was able to see my margins increase as a byproduct of not over estimating... less waste. We were also able to keep project costs more real-time helping to win more projects.

Vorteile:

Pros: I loved the digital estimating tools that fed back to the general, [sensitive content hidden], and architects. They were able to see any gaps in designs and see where projects might be easier to VE.

Nachteile:

CONS: 1) Too many tools at your fingertips makes for alot to learn, but not everything is needed. 2) If GC is using program, the document management on large projects can become very overwhelming if not organized extremely well.

Document Review and Collaboration

Kommentare: This is a great tool for design teams to review and check plan sets.

Vorteile:

I really enjoy using Studio sessions to do quality control reviews, allows me to comment and have designers addressing comments as I go.

Nachteile:

Sometimes files look different in Revu than they do using other PDF viewing software, like Adobe Acrobat.

review

Vorteile:

easy to add and implement installs for admins

Nachteile:

not easy to remove licenses without having workstation available. need to ask support to unregsiter

Great product for architects

Kommentare: Bluebeam works great and helps me get through my job duties.

Vorteile:

Bluebeam allows for me to easily review drawings and mark up edits with an ease. I also enjoy cool features such as scaling objects and finding measurements which is not common with other pdf viewers.

Nachteile:

I think more tutorials or training should be available. I often feel that I am not getting the most out of the features.

Pathway to Paperless

Kommentare: We and another entity previously required physical plan sets for building permits and planning case applications. Now that both have decided to move forward with Bluebeam, it makes my personal job significantly less stressful.

Vorteile:

Allowing us to stop requiring physical building plan sets will reduce paper usage exponentially.

Nachteile:

Expensive, but worth it in the long run. Will likely have a tough road ahead adjusting for some people involved.

Expensive but worth it

Kommentare: Its the best product in the business for the category it serves. I think much like Autodesk, Bluebeam hates is customers. It is a difficult company to do business with from deployment on down through support. Even with that said, I can't imagine trying to work without it. What are you going to do?

Vorteile:

This software handles any and all PDF tasks for us. It also can be used for photo/file manipulation. The collaboration feature allows for real time multi-user edits which has proven useful for remote workers

Nachteile:

I dislike the fact that the software is now only offered as a subscription purchase. We have historically bought standalone licenses. We would get 2-4 years out of the license before bluebeam quit supporting it or required us to upgrade. Now we spend even more money for each seat and we get to pay it every year. I guess they took a page out of the Autodesk playbook.
