The software is outdated that it is missing some of the features that most design tools would commonly have.

Its integration and BIM capabilities is a great feature and as BIM is becoming more widely adopted, this is a vital feature.

Mostly for government project , we need to work with so many reference file. Microstation only can solve for reference file problem.

I like the drafting tools as well as the tutorials to help me learn how to be productive with the software.

Capabilities of design in wide range of structure make this software forward in industry.very ease to use.

Glad they offered a 30 day trial and good customer service.

I like that you can bring INROADS into the software to build an alignment and take section views of the road.

Administration can seem confusing as there are so many different options.

After a while it becomes second nature to use, and the grid hotkeys are the best setting there is.

Also the MicroStation support team is always willing to help with quick response time.

Very good in creating CAD design in sync with MX-Road. Excellent tools and friendly user interface.

Lately, as mentioned above, Microstation has been transitioning over to OpenRoads Designer Connect edition which is been difficult at times to work with.

Printing quality is good. Software system is quite good.

This software help me to work with documents with extension dxf easily, but the most important is that you can work with 2d and 3d and print it in PDF.

MicroStation is the best product for highway and bridge design. It is a very easy software to use and has a minimal learning curve.

Now I am using for electricity distribution and transmission industry. It is a fantastic software for all the industries.

There are fantastic ways of designing highways along with complete construction designs. It is the most reliable and excellent software.

It's kind a tool which makes everything easier and at the end of the it matters. Great product comes with high price which everybody understands after using it.

We use Bentley MicroStation for the projects that are designed and controlled using Bentley BIM for their good integration with each other.

The best CAD software for companies heavily invested in Bentley ecosystem.

The ease of use is amazing, I had never used microstation before starting at BV, and the learning curve for microstation was minimal.

Can't open different file in views at the same time, you can only work on one file at one time, which is inconvenient.

Microstation provides the ability for multiple discipline integration as well quality drafting/ modelling with a fairly easy to use layout.

MicroStation is an architectural CAD solution designed to help businesses in the construction, petroleum, mining and other sectors create, modify and visualize 2D and 3D designs. Administrators can create annotations, paper plots, 3D physical models and PDFs on a unified interface.

The platform lets designers add 3D reality meshes, geospatial information and point clouds to create construction models. MicroStation allows creators to use built-in templates and include dimensions, symbols, lines and texts in drawings based on project-specific standards. Additionally, teams can analyze various properties of the object including slope and aspect angle to visualize designs in a centralized dashboard.

MicroStation enables operators to select time-based animations, produce realistic movies and preview lifelike visualizations in real-time. Pricing is based on monthly subscriptions and support is extended via FAQs and online portal.
