What happened to PlanGrid?

Autodesk acquired PlanGrid in 2018 and has since folded it into Autodesk Construction Cloud. PlanGrid is no longer sold as a standalone product, and existing customers have been moved to Autodesk Build or BIM 360.

For many teams, the move may not be the best choice, as it raises some questions:

Slower adoption: Autodesk Build is more complex than PlanGrid, so field teams may need more time to get comfortable with it. Its wider feature set is great if your teams use it.

Higher cost: Autodesk Build is part of Autodesk Construction Cloud, so your final cost depends on the features you enable. That can mean paying for tools your teams never use.

Migration challenges: Moving platforms changes how your teams work, and some data, such as certain markups or custom fields, may need manual review.

Avoid these challenges with a PlanGrid and Autodesk alternative

Get your teams up and running with a field-first software

Reduce the learning curve by choosing an easy-to-use plan viewer that has all the benefits from PlanGrid without the complexity of Autodesk Build.

Fieldwire is the construction management software that makes collaboration between field and office seamless, with a platform that works as well on mobile as on desktop, even without an internet connection.

Stick to the features that matter, and pay the fair price

With Fieldwire, you get the core tools you rely on every day, including plan viewing, task management, punch lists and reports, without the clutter. When you need more, such as RFIs or BIM, those tools are available too. Our plans come with transparent pricing, so you pay for what makes sense for your teams.

“The capabilities of the Fieldwire platform are superior to the likes of Plangrid. Fieldwire’s task management, customer service, and easy-to-use APIs allowed us to use it across the country.”

Carson Kyhl, Co-founder and President, Burnham Nationwide
