Switching to Archicad
Daniel Fernandes of Fernandes / Arquitetos Associados in Brazil, explains how their firm made the switch from Revit to Archicad.
We migrated to Archicad from Revit and discovered the advantages related to saving time and resources, letting the architects focus on quality. We liked it so much during the testing phase that we uninstalled Revit from all the computers and decided to go with Archicad 100% on all our projects.

The Power of Technology Integration – AIDEA’s Abelardo Tolentino talks about how his firm achieved unprecedented productivity gains with BIM.
Two years after implementing BIM there were significant savings — at least 40% in manpower. And, we were spending 60% more time on design, and 40% less time on documentation.
