12d Synergy

What do you like best?

12d Synergy has simple and intuitive interface. It's ability to manage a folder of files without the need to checkout individual files is unique to this collaboration software. It is the only software that works seamlessly with 12d Model and other engineering software that has a folder of files rather than an individual file.

What do you dislike?

Having to host a data server requires management by the IT team.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

12d Synergy is scaleable to your needs. We use it mostly for 12d Model projects but are considering expanding this. The support that we get from the guys 12d Synergy is second to none. They are open to suggestions for development and very responsive to addressing issues.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I typically work on major civil engineering projects with large amounts of spatial data. 12d Synergy handles this data easily and enables us to work with design teams overseas. Our large amounts of data are quick to checkin and checkout as 12d Synergy only transfers the changes to each file rather than the whole file - this reduces data upload/download volumes and means we share data much quicker.
