Introducing SYNCHRO 4D

iModel in the cloud can be accessed now through desktop, web and mobile. Expanding the value of the 4D model throughout the construction workflow, which includes PDF, documents, mark-ups, review and status updates across all phases of a project.

How is SYNCHRO 4D different from Synchro Pro?

Powered by iTwin technologies, SYNCHRO 4D Pro expands the capabilities of SYNCHRO Pro beyond traditional model file imports. Our cloud-based solution makes it easier to collaborate across all projects.

 The 4D visa includes

• SYNCHRO 4D Pro: best in class 4D construction planning that opens cloud-hosted collaboration projects
• Iray rendering add-on in SYNCHRO 4D Pro
• SYNCHRO Modeler: model splitting for construction and model-based Quantity Take-Off (QTO)
• SYNCHRO Control: form-based project management, communication, reporting and analytics, and 4D model review
• SYNCHRO Field: field mobility for forms, 4D model review, and model statusing

 Beyond the improved capabilities, SYNCHRO 4D also offers the following cost benefits:

• User Pricing for project hosting - allows for unlimited Projects to be created for collaboration in the office and the field. This replaces the need to purchase a separate “per project” Synchro SWP license as in the past
• SYNCHRO 4D now includes Iray adapter, previously an additional annual charge
• Every SYNCHRO 4D user also gets access to Control and Field, included in the 4D Visa Price. Extend the value of the 4D model from pre-construction through construction and inspections.
