Álvaro’s Experience at BetterPros

Profession: Architect & Designer Seniority: Senior Years of experience: +8
“I’m a part of the BetterPros team and work as an architect and designer. I’d like to share my experience transitioning from AutoCAD to Revit and helping others through this process.

With the right help, the change can be easier than it seems. The process is gradual and involves users, management team, and everyone else who may be part of the production work in the office.

Transitioning from 2D AutoCAD to 3D Building Information Modeling (BIM) on Revit calls for a shift in mindset and methodology. In AutoCAD, we have numerous views that explain a project. In Revit, all those views are generated via one 3D model, which helps improve efficiency and accuracy.

It took us a few months to transition to Revit and a year to fully adjust it to different project types and office needs. This shift improved various projects, from commercial buildings and residential complexes to large-scale infrastructure. Revit is especially valuable for projects requiring detailed coordination across disciplines like structural, mechanical, and electrical systems, and for renovation projects.

The benefits include improved integration, reduced errors, automatic view generation, time savings, and enhanced team collaboration.”
