Reviews of Tekla Structures
Mo Sabouti,
One of the best 3D drafting software
Comments: Draft the most accurate structural steel 3D model and get benefit of the reporting system.
Pros:
If you want to make the most accurate 3D BIM, especifically when it comes with steel structure, this is the best want to use. You can model all the details of a structural steel building not only in a 3D format, but a comprehensive report that can be utilized as bill of quantity for and valuable for making any purchase order.
Cons:
Although the software has many advantages, but in order to make an accurate draft, you need to spend time on learning the software and its tricks.

Reliable software for structural designs.
Comments: Overall experience while using this software were better than using our traditional method in designing a structure it reduces our work load and can easily edit the parts that have been misplace.
Pros:
I like using this software especially when I have to design a certain building. And as well as making computation of loads that I will have to apply. It's easy to use and convenient in presenting for meetings of what building or structure that you and your team were planning to build.
Cons:
Maybe the least thing of this software was you have to be knowledgeable first in using this 3D software. If your not familiar or it is your first time using it, you'll encounter a lot of trial and error. and supervision is advice when using it as well.

Getting there...
Comments: if correctly set-up it can do its work in an efficient way
Pros:
Its a very strong software with the option of adding extra tools through the use of the macros, if configured correctly its easy to learn and get someone to start working
Cons:
the configuration of standards and adding and creation of macros is insanely complex going back to ms dos like routines and copying files into software folders....

Best collaboration tool for construction experts
Comments: A lot of benefits using this tool as it reduces the gaps between the team members and streamline the communication. It also helps reducing the conflicts.
Pros:
This is a tool which is used by the construction industry to collaborate and to merge 3D models, share information, and check for clashes. This is a powerful tool and yet very easy for the new users to learn the software and perform productive work. The best part of this tool is that one can use it on the mobile phones, tablets or smart devices which have the touch screen capability and the benefit of it that it can be used at the construction site to collaborate on the live project. Few of the features of this tool is like clash detection, rebar measurements, 3D navigation, create and share notes, save model views etc.
Cons:
Nothing much as this tool has been a powerful tool for the construction experts including the project managers to collaborate with the stakeholders of the projects.
