PRELOADED PROFILES
Revu comes preloaded with several Profiles that are geared toward specific jobs and functions, including:
- Revu: For users who prefer a basic, streamlined interface. Appropriate for most users.
- Revu Advanced: For users who would benefit from a more robust interface. Users upgrading from Revu 2017 or earlier might find this layout more familiar.
- Quantity Takeoff: For estimators and specifiers who need to view plans and specs, conduct quantity takeoffs or add markups to their PDF files.
- Field Issues: For users completing a punch process.
