Helix

Helix

 

Overview


Helix® bridges the gap between your favorite BIM tools, turning frustrating model handoffs into a smooth, integrated workflow. By tackling the challenge of transferring geometry and data between SketchUp, AutoCAD, and Revit, Helix keeps your team moving forward instead of wrestling with file formats.

With Helix, simply point to your SketchUp and AutoCAD files and watch as they become native Revit components—complete with accurate materials, geometry, and metadata. Sync changes back and forth effortlessly, so your models stay up to date across all platforms without any manual rework or lost details. Helix makes multi-tool collaboration feel effortless.

Named License

Floating License
  • Assigned to Specific Users: Each license is tied to a specific user or workstation. 
  • Predictable Costs: Easier to budget as the cost is fixed per seat, regardless of usage.
  • Limited Flexibility: Licenses cannot be shared between different number of users.
  • Best for Smaller Teams: Ideal for organizations with a stable number of users.
  • Simplified Management: License tracking is straightforward since is assigned.
  • Shared Access: Licenses are shared among multiple users, but only one person can use the software at the same time.
  • Cost Effective: Reduces overall licensing costs by optimizing license utilization, especially for large teams.
  • Greater Flexibility: Licenses are not tied to specific user or machine, allowing for dynamic access based on need.
  • Best for Larger Teams: Ideal for organizations with a fluctuating number of users or projects. 
  • Usage Monitoring: Detailed tracking of license usage is often available, helping to optimize license allocation.
