Bluebeam Revu Reviews

Bluebeam has better features and is easier to use than Adobe. The cost is much less when you consider payments are not indefinite.

Nothing bad to report. Bluebeam is far superior to Adobe. So far we have not found any flaws in the software.

The program enabled us to give our foreman and project managers access to pdf drawings that they require to manage a job

The program is not user friendly, difficult to work within, manage, save pdf's to, creating new folders is difficult

document management features, easy to take takeoff quantities, pdf file reading

slow file loading performance issues (some time)

I would like to pass my special gratitude to the customer support team for Bluebeam Revu. A collection of very resourceful team which understands the software so well. They really assisted me in launching and integration of this software. My emails were replied on time and in the most respectful manner. They made the app easy to use for me and that's why I have recommended it to several friends who appreciates it's work too. Keep up the good work.

With such assistance from the customer support team, I find nothing hard. All the challenges are well addressed.

What I like most about Bluebeam Revu is its in depth capability for project review. Software complements well for horizontal construction plans with options for markups and collaboration. Also, allows for PDF conversion for drawings.

Least likeable feature is the limited technical support and customer support if there is a software issue. It may take some time to resolve the issue before it is up and running again. Also, opening / printing files may take some time.

Additional functionality beyond your normal PDF document viewing.

The software could be more user-friendly.

Quick measurements on PDF drawings, available tools are robust and haven't been missing anything I need. The prebuilt scales are ample. Drawing overlay feature is very helpful in comparing revision drawings.

Steep learning curve to get started, fortunately there are some BB University courses to get the ball rolling.

I like that you can complete take-offs and mark-ups in real time.

The ease of sending invitations to new users and being able to easily switch users Bluebeam Revu to a new computer.

Incredibly simple markup tool. Variety of easy to use built in tools.

Occasionally suffers from strange bugs that seem to propagate throughout multiple updates and versions.

It makes marking up, commenting, and editing drawings extremely easy and quick

Price, I feel it could be a little cheaper but it's not terrible

I love that it helps me complete takeoffs, and ease of marking up drawings and be able to send request for information quickly.

Sometimes, it is hard to learn the software but when you know how to do it. Life becomes easy.

It’s an excellent software for so many varying uses! I mainly use it to edit documents.

It needs a large monitor as the tools take up a lot of room on the screen ideally.

Bluebeam Revu is the best software I have ever used. If you have a problem with converting PDF to DWG to make a take-off, don't worry Bluebeam Revu can do it in PDF, and it can identity any plan type and components like pipes, lighting fixtures ...etc.

One thing that I hate about Bluebeam Revu is that is consumes a lot from the devices' recourses.

Document Management and PDF Editing and Markup are the two features are liked in Bluebeam Revu

Performance can be affected when working with large PDF documents or files with complex markups.

Bluebeam Revu is a great solution for creating take-off from a PDF file that cannot be converted to DWG or any other drawing extension. Bluebeam Revu is very smooth and does not consume much from the PC resources. the best thing about Bluebeam Revu is that you can import all your work to Excel.

There is nothing to dislike about Bluebeam Revu, the software is perfectly working and benefiting us at the maximum level.

this software is easy to use and you can easy to covert files from excel to pdf ,word to pdf,power point to pdfvery smooth convertion

very smooth converting files and it has may tools plug in built in on this software you easily ajust and edit files

Great when using on the go at different sites

If you dont know what hour doing it can be challenging

what i like most is the ease of editing documents and all the different features it offers. mind you i have not used them all but the option is there. and interested in learning more of the features i do not use.

have not used it to its extent to comment on the product but it is expensive..

Bluebeam is an exceptional software solution that offers a wide range of benefits for construction professionals and project managers. One of its most notable features is the ability to perform takeoffs from PDF files, which can be a time-consuming and labor-intensive task when done manually. Bluebeam makes it easy to perform takeoffs from PDF files, allowing users to accurately calculate the quantities of materials required for a project. This can help to reduce errors and ensure that the project is completed on time and within budget.

Some users have reported performance issues with Bluebeam, such as slow processing times or crashes. While these issues are not common, they can be frustrating when they do occur.

I loved being able to learn the ins and out of this software, however it was not was easy for me. Helping a local construction company use this software to put their PDFs together and help create new blueprints. User friendly on an advanced design level.

The mark ups took some getting used to but once I understood the concept it wasn’t that hard

This app is a lifesaver, it helps us making take-off from PDF plans that cannot be converted to AutoCAD or any DWG software and making estimates for those plans. It is easy to use, cheap and helps you in the right direction. It saves time because in the past we had to redraw those plans in AutoCAD to make take-off.

This application saves us many times, so I don't have any problem with this software.

We can easily convert excel and word files to PDF. And also, we can merge several pdf files into one file by this software. This function is very helpful for us.

Edit function is not user-friendly. We can edit a text by using this software, but it is not userfriendly. Some practice is required to edit something smoothly.
