Bentley opens free access to ProjectWise 365

01 May 2020

Bentley Systems has opened up its ProjectWise 365 cloud service, including waiving subscription fees through September 30, 2020, to virtually connect infrastructure project participants forced to work from home amid the current Covid-19 crisis.

ProjectWise 365, leveraging Microsoft 365 technology and office productivity tools, extends the reach and accessibility of building information modelling (BIM) and infrastructure engineering data to facilitate collaboration and design review across the ecosystem of project stakeholders.

As an “instant-on” cloud service accessed through a web browser to simplify design review, transmittals, RFIs (requests for information), information sharing, and issues resolution, ProjectWise 365 is perfectly suited for quick adoption while working from home, eliminating the need for error-prone combinations of generic technologies such as “drop boxes” and PDF, says a spokesman for the leading global provider of comprehensive software and digital twins services for advancing the design, construction, and operations of infrastructure. In 2019, Bentley Systems was ranked by the ARC Advisory Group as the No 1 provider of collaborative BIM for its enterprise-scalable ProjectWise Design Integration offerings, and Microsoft cited Bentley as one of the top 25 companies in terms of Azure usage globally. In the development of ProjectWise 365, extending infrastructure engineering workflows to all users of Microsoft’s Office 365 cloud services, Bentley leveraged its market-leading experience in meeting the collaboration and work-sharing challenges of distributed project delivery teams.

“The enterprises using ProjectWise Design Integration for work sharing, which include 74 of the ENR Top 100 Design Firms, have been telling us that they credit ProjectWise for sustaining their project productivity over the forced transition to work from home,” says Dustin Parkman, Vice President, Project Delivery for Bentley. “Now, by broadly and immediately opening up access to our new simplified ProjectWise 365 cloud service, we’re extending ProjectWise advantages in collaboration and design review to infrastructure engineering project teams at every scale. By fully ‘digitally’ enabling every infrastructure professional, we hope to support their resilience in surmounting this crisis.”

ProjectWise 365 is part of Bentley’s comprehensive effort to help both user organisations and end-users to work remotely, providing tools, information, and resources including FAQs, videos, webinars and other technical assets.
