Description

Tables is your perfect Autodesk® Revit® companion, an easy and familiar one-stop shopping solution to boost your productivity in Revit. Simple, yet powerful!

 

Tables is a spreadsheet application deeply integrated into Revit - think of it like having the power of Excel inside Revit. It works bidirectional - which means that you can make edits in the spreadsheet and push the values back into Revit - and is 100% compatible with Microsoft Excel. With Tables, you can not only create and format beautiful Excel spreadsheets directly from Revit and create templates that you can use for further projects, but you can also edit, structure, manage, or compare your Revit projects. You can write information from your xlsx Tables file back into your Revit model and use the same logic for other projects.

Additionally, you can use our SmartCreation commands to create levels, views, rooms, and sheets with placed views with Tables, there will be even more in the near future so stay tuned! In the latest version, we added Shared Parameters (Project) and duplication views

We also added specific commands for BIM management and coordination tasks to help you stay on top of your data and be more productive. And all of this with the refinements that a modern xlsx-based spreadsheet application can offer you. This makes BIM really fun!

Tables will become your perfect Revit companion! Simple, yet powerful!

  • highly recommended!

    great tool with very useful functionalities

  • Excellent! One of the best, if not the best Revit <-> Excel tool out there
    Ryan Lenihan | November 28, 2020

    I've been using planworks for 3 years or so now and it has to be one of the best, if not the best Excel tools out there for Revit.

    Unlike other tools, there is no need to save to an Excel file if you don't want, you can manipulate your data and push it back to Revit without ever really leaving Revit. It has a "delete in revit" tool so that you can quickly audit and delete unwanted information from your model using the filtered data in Planworks. It has a "select in revit" function so you can create complex filtering/selection criteria based on what you have in the Excel window.

    I've tried pretty much all the Excel tools on the market, I used to refer to one of the other well known products as "the Rolls Royce of Excel tools" but tables goes above and beyond in functionality and I haven't used that other Excel tool in about 2.5 years.

    The team at Planworks are super responsive to email when you have a problem and they take on board ideas as well. 

    Highly recommended!
