How Software Advice ensures transparency

Software Advice lists all providers across its website—not just those that pay us—so that users can make informed purchase decisions. Users can talk to our advisors for free to receive software recommendations matching their needs. Software providers pay us for sponsored profiles to reach users interested in their products.

How Software Advice verifies reviews

Software Advice carefully verified over 2 million reviews to bring you authentic software experiences from real users. Our human moderators verify that reviewers are real people and that reviews are authentic. They use leading tech to analyze text quality and to detect plagiarism and generative AI.

Independent research methodology

Researchers at Software Advice use a mix of verified reviews, independent research, and objective methodologies to bring you selection and ranking information you can trust. While we may earn a referral fee when you visit a provider through our links or talk to an advisor, this has no influence on our research or methodology.

Pros:

The automatic production of 2D drawings with the pdf rendition is high valuable when using Bentley products.The interface for the use is quite classic but people gets used to it.

Cons:

The configuration of Projectwise workflows is awful, there is no other words. The interface is dificult, and editing an excel file for such a critical thing such as workflows is a nightmare. The documentation is not good concerning the tool as well.

Decent project database software

I've been a regular PW user for over a decade and recently became an administrator during our SELECTseries to CONNECT upgrade. There were a lot of challenges, and still are, to clean up our datasource and to take advantage of the features in PW. I would describe the software as potentially powerful, but clunky and difficult to learn.

Pros:

All the documents in on location, workflow control, inherited properties and attributes, title block integration.

Cons:

Search is not intuitive, access control is challenging, lots of effort is needed to train and learn the features of the software, as well as management and knowledge sharing. The software has gotten slower with the CONNECT edition anecdotally, tends to crash at suboptimal times.

Reasons for choosing ProjectWise

Our user base is highly MicroStation centric and it appeared to be the logical choice back in 2012 when we moved form W/edge.

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

Huge storage capabilities for all types of files, various levels of sharing and security that enable quick and efficient transfer and sharing of files at all stages of project development and design, easy compatibility with all Bentley civil engineering design programs. As a design engineer in a large bridge design division, I found our switch to ProjectWise to be smooth and easily managed. Projects were easy to find, even years later, and ProjectWise facilitated good sharing and cooperation between in-house personnel and the customers.

Cons:

It can be slow. Sometimes it goes down. There's a box that started auto-checking itself a few months ago that makes you open a read-only copy of things, and this resulted in my doing a bunch of analysis that didn't get saved, and a really awkward conversation with my group leader because said analysis was not there when we needed it to be. (Moral of story, read each dialog box carefully before clicking accept, even if you've been a ProjectWise user for a long time.)

Pros:

Ability to share data anywhere in the world. The workflows and the ability to automate so many aspects of the sheet creation process is a huge time saver. We use it for Bentley, Microsoft, and Autodesk software without major issues.

Cons:

Upgrading the software can be a quite daunting task. The ability to integrate some of the more complex pieces of software Autodesk develops could use some attention.
