Trimble Connect vs. Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud)

Trimble Connect is an open, cloud-based common data environment (CDE) and collaboration solution for global commercial building, civil construction, and geospatial firms. It provides value across the entire construction project lifecycle, from design teams finding fewer clashes and faster reviews to fabricators having constructible models and smoother coordination. Trimble Connect allows teams to: -Store, organize, and manage version-controlled files across teams. -View, inspect, and overlay over 60 industry file formats—including 2D drawings, 3D models, and point clouds.

Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud) connects workflows, teams and data at every stage of construction to reduce risk, maximize efficiency, and increase profits. Autodesk Build is part of Autodesk Forma (formerly Autodesk Construction Cloud)'s newest set of products that further connect data, workflows, and teams throughout the entire building lifecycle. Build delivers a broad, deep, and connected set of field execution and project management tools for builders in a single software platform that is easy to deploy, adopt and use.
