Revit vs Inventor

[Anonymous]

Hello, we do water treatment plants. There is some concrete work (tanks, small technical houses) . Now we draw everything in Inventor, as the concrete is fairly simple. Would it be better to design the groundplane and concrete works, some small technical buildings (steel frame with sandwich panels, some doors...) in Revit?

Will it work good for later use in Inventor? What about updating the base model in Revit? Will all modification come through in Inventor automatically?

many thanks, A Revit noob

If it are just some small things I would just do it in inventor. I do not see a reason to start working with multiple software packages and creating extra complications like conversions and so on.

Revit gets interesting when yout need to start modeling larger buildings.
