How to Organize Collaboration With Revit on Any Device

Autodesk Revit is unique BIM software, enabling architects, engineers, and designers to work in a unified environment. The program Revit is officially available only for Windows, with no native support for Revit Mac, Linux or Revit Mac OS X, limiting direct use on other systems without additional solutions.

5 ways to organize access to Revit for the entire team

Revit can be made available to the entire team of specialists working on a project, regardless of the devices or operating systems they use. There are ways for each participant to work with a single model, view changes in real time, and make their own edits.

1. Autodesk BIM 360 (ACC)
   Allows you to store and collaboratively edit Revit models in the cloud. The team works simultaneously, sees changes in real time, and has centralized access to files. Disadvantages: not all BIM Revit Architecture tools are available in the web version.
2. Revit Cloud Worksharing
   Several specialists can work synchronously on a single model, making changes to their part of the project. This is convenient for complex tasks.Disadvantages: complex settings, the need for powerful workstations for each user; virtual machines are required to work outside of Windows.
3. Autodesk Viewer
   A simple tool for viewing Revit Online models in a browser. Suitable for presentations or when you need to agree on a concept with a client. Disadvantages: inability to edit the model, limited functionality; only suitable as an auxiliary tool.
4. Virtual machines and emulators
   Technically, you can run Revit Mac OS X or Linux through a virtual Windows system. This allows you to access the program Revit on unsupported platforms. Disadvantages: complex settings, significant performance losses, the need for a powerful computer, high memory and video card requirements.
5. Cloud services
   These allow you to run the full version of ADSK Revit on any device — Windows, macOS, Linux, or even a tablet. All calculations are performed on a remote server, and the user receives the results in real time.
