Considering the NavisWorks - Autodesk - Solidworks situation...what is everyone using as an alternative to view, combine, and clash-detect huge models such as refineries, manufacturing plants, etc?

Sorry for the double-post, but I saw evidence of NavisWorks in this forum.

Thanks!

Dan,

Check out Dassault's new purchase - 3DVia Composer - Formerly Seemage. Might be what you are looking for...

  3D VIA is designed for technical manuals, not really the same as Navisworks.

      No clash detection, no comparable features to navisworks that i am aware of, its a completely different product aimed at technical authors.

Hi Daniel,

Are you still using NavisWorks or did you discover an alternative.

Thanks,

Bill

Walkinside from VRcontext might be an alternative ?

  Thanks Mattias! Looking at the video has sparked my interest and I will do some more digging.
  
  Do you have any knowledge with this product pertaining to how long it takes to convert the SW files and what needs to be done to update the file if some of the CAD files change?
