Revit vs Navisworks for coordination

I don't know that this is the right place for this question.

 

I work at the contractor level and I seem to be running into contstruction managers that think we need to be using Revit and submitting files in Revit to get various trades coordinated.  I've always thought that was Navisworks job.  As far as I was aware Revit does not involve clash detection and Navisworks is a much better tool to be used for 3D coordination. 

 

I'm just looking for feedback.  Is Revit intended as a coordination tool at the contractor level or is Navisworks much better suited to perform this feat?  Does anyone know of any discussions/comparisons of these two products?

The topic has nothing to do with those programs. It's about doing coordination and which platform should be used.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.
