Synchro PRO is a hybrid construction project management solution designed for businesses in the contruction industry that handle complex residential, industrial, commercial and public works projects. The solution can either be deployed on-premise or hosted in the cloud.
Unique to Synchro PRO is its “4D” project scheduling visualization capability, which allows users to import their computer-assisted design files into the system in order to have a visual, time-lapsed representation of what the project should look like at any given point in its life cycle.
Synchro PRO also features a “clash” reporting capability that automatically detects potential construction complications in a project, while its “what-if” analysis ...

Synchro 3D scheduling

The ability to tie 3D models to a schedule and create a time lapse video is priceless
Cons
Time consuming to create videos and keep updated.

I am an engineer in the construction industry and have used Synchro for scheduling.
Critical path method scheduling, resource allocation and 4D Scheduling
Pros
I like the ease of use and simple user interface. The filters and shortcuts make normal functions easier and more streamlined. The system doesn't give multiple options for simple tasks. It gives the basic options and allows for simply use. The benefit of this software over similar software such as Primavera P6, is the simplistic nature. Primavera uses hundreds of options, where as Synchro keeps it to the point.
Cons
The thing I like least about the software is the architecture of the programming. My computer would not run the software due to an integrated graphics card versus a dedicated card. Once I received a new computer from our IT team, the software worked great, but requiring a dedicated graphics card can be prohibitive.

Software does not work
I purchased Syncbird Pro on Sep 4th 2020. The Software has never worked with my iPhone 8. The Apple libraries Syncbird uses are not the latest one iTunes uses, so if you use one tool you cannot use the other. I could live with this limitation if Syncbird worked! Even though the secondary functions work in the tool, the main function (open the iphone library) does not work. The support has not lived to minimal expectation, they were not able to provide a fix despite sending all the logs, and would not offer a refund. As such, I would definitely not recommend the product.
Pros
Never had the chance to use this product.

Improving Our Industry: The Next Level of Project Coordination
Synchro's 4D Construction Management Software is the premiere product currently out on the marketplace. It's extremely simple to use, and brings an entirely new level to preconstruction planning and coordination. Imagine being able to visually review, and constantly improve your project plan 5, 10, or 100 times prior to breaking ground so that when you actually do break ground, there are ultimately no surprises' that's exactly what makes Synchro's 4D tool so invaluable to any construction project, of any size. The primary benefits of implementing Synchro's 4D software are: 1) Visually review your plan, and communicate that plan clearly and quickly, 2) Resolve conflicts before construction, 3) Highly engaged and focused team delivery, 4) Measurable time and cost savings (Improve your bottom line!), and 5) Improved quality, safety, and predictability for your project(s). Synchro's 4D software seamlessly integrates with other industry scheduling software, taking their biggest weakness ' a true CPM engine geared towards risk management reporting over the life cycle of a project ' and making it a strength. Don't take our word for it - Try it for yourself today, and experience first-hand the improved project delivery results that, if you're like us here at AEC Controls, you won't be able to live without on any of your future projects.

4D Planning
Only tried on trial version. I would appreciate if Full fledged Education version is available to institutes like us.
Pros
Importing schedule data from all common sources including P6, Asta, MS Project, and Excel. Importing 3D models and equipment models of any complexity and file format Linking 3D/BIM model data to schedule data in a fast, efficient manner to create accurate and clear 4D construction sequences
Cons
Not yet tried to Conduct a 4D-Based Progress Review to validate your construction schedule with all project participants Work with resource-loaded schedules to manage costs, labor and material and produce earned value and quantity tracking plots alongside the 4D schedule and construction sequence.
