![]() ![]() An analogy I like for the difference considering that they are both complex tools for difficult tasks is that using ArchiCAD is like dancing while Revit is more like wrestling. One downside to learning ArchiCAD is that if you end up working in Revit your frustration level may be higher for having seen the alternative. If you eventually start your own design oriented firm ArchiCAD is likely your best choice. If you are in the US it is less likely that ArchiCAD will be useful to you but there are enough firms using it that it can still be handy experience to have. ArchiCAD is used primarily by small to medium sized firms but many if not most of these use Revit. In the US Revit dominates the large scale building market. Revit has an advantage coordinating between disciplines due to its various engineering tools but this can be worked around using IFC. Both are good at automating document production but ArchiCAD is much easier and more sophisticated in its capabilities in this regard. Revit has far more features for building engineering but it is frankly pretty much crap as a design tool. ArchiCAD for almost 30 years and Revit for over 10.ĪrchiCAD is by far the better tool for architectural design.
