    I think Ms. Feaver is only asking about the use of the software and its use collaborating with others.

     

    Our office is just diving into this as well and still navigating its potential. I will be interested to hear more from others.

    We've been using C4R for about three months. The installation and startup was cumbersome, but I foresee us using it a lot more while collaborating with others.

    At my current firm we have no engineering capacity. All models are traded and linked. When I worked at a firm with structural in house, we still treated their model as a sub-consultant's model and linked it into the architectural (and vice versa). I know the initial comments are about architects in different locations working in one model, but I'm curious if anyone has used 360 with sub-consultants.

    I have used C4R with consultants who were not on C4R and also when they were on C4R.

    Consultants not on C4R:  When you receive an updated model, you have to upload the consultants models to C4R and re-load them in your Model.  Works fine, but can be a pain if there are a lot of updates.  Takes some time to upload and re-load in model.  But it does work.

    Consultants on C4R:  This is the best way to go if you can pull it off.  Their model lives on the cloud and they update it live on their end.  The changes automatically show up as soon as you sync with the central model.  Works great.
