Autodesk® Navisworks® Manage software—coordinated, complete, control.
The Autodesk® Navisworks® software family comprises three 3D design project review products and one free* viewer application to help you and your extended teams experience enhanced control and confident collaboration on your most complex projects:
- Autodesk® Navisworks® Manage software
- Autodesk® Navisworks® Simulate software
- Autodesk® Navisworks® Review software
- Autodesk® Navisworks® Freedom software—free* viewer application
By combining the high-quality 3D design data created by AutoCAD® software, Revit®-based applications, and Autodesk® Inventor® software with geometry and data from other design tools, Autodesk Navisworks project review products enable a dynamic real-time, whole-project view for:
- Effective 3D coordination analysis
- 4D planning simulation
- Accurate photorealistic visualization
The aggregated whole-project view can be published in both Autodesk Navisworks native NWD format and 3D DWF™ format, giving all stakeholders access to the virtual project with Autodesk Navisworks Freedom.

Autodesk® Navisworks® Manage software is a comprehensive review solution for design and construction management professionals seeking powerful insight and predictability to improve productivity and project quality. Design data created in building information modeling (BIM) applications—such as the Revit® family of products—can be combined with geometry and information from other design tools and reviewed in real-time as an entire 3D project, regardless of file size or format. NavisWorks Manage combines precise fault-finding analysis and interference management together with dynamic 4D project schedule simulation and photorealistic visualization. Entire project models can be published and freely viewed in NWD and 3D DWFTM file formats.
Autodesk® Navisworks® Simulate software adds the dynamic power of 4D scheduling and photorealism to Autodesk® Navisworks® Review software. The value of existing design data is extended to create clear descriptive content that demonstrates design intent and simulates construction to drive insight and predictability. 3D design data created in building information modeling (BIM) applications—such as the Revit® family of products—can be combined, regardless of size, with geometry and information created using other design tools. This real-time visualization enables fast validation, simulation, and analysis of design project performance. Project models can be published in NWD and 3D DWF™ file formats for free* viewing.
Autodesk® Navisworks® Review software extends access to existing design data to drive insight and predictability to improve productivity and project quality. Combine 3D design data created in building information modeling (BIM) applications—such as the Revit® family of products—with geometry and information created with other design tools for real-time visualization and collaborative review, regardless of file size or format. Dynamic navigation and an intuitive review toolkit improve understanding of even the most complex 3D models. Entire project models can be published and freely* viewed in NWD and 3D DWF™ file formats to provide valuable digital assets during and after construction.

Autodesk Navisworks Freedom software is the free* viewer application for Autodesk Navisworks NWD and 3D DWF™ files. With Autodesk Navisworks project review products†, you can combine design data regardless of file size or format and publish a whole-project view. Navisworks Freedom and NWD files give stakeholders better access to whole-project views.
†Project review products include Autodesk Navisworks Manage, Autodesk Navisworks Simulate, and Autodesk Navisworks Review.
