The latest generation of MicroStation-based platformproducts are called the Connect Edition, taking over from the previous generation V8i. Bentley has dabbled with Microsoft naming conventions (95) to straight versioning over the years, this represents a break from all previous branding.
MicroStation’s advanced parametric 3D modeling capabilities allow infrastructure professionals of any discipline to deliver data-driven, BIM-ready models. Your team can aggregate their work on MicroStation, including designs and models created with Bentley’s discipline specific BIM applications. As a result, you can create comprehensive, multi-discipline BIM models, documentation, and other deliverables. Since your project team will work in a universal modeling application, they can communicate easily to share intelligent deliverables and maintain the full integrity of your data.
MicroStation and all Bentley BIM applications are built on the same comprehensive modeling platform. You therefore can easily progress your MicroStation work into discipline specific workflows with Bentley’s design and analytical modeling BIM applications. With this flexibility, each member of your project team has exactly the right application for the work they need to do.
MicroStation CONNECT Edition comes with numerous services and features not available in its V8i version. In previous updates of the CONNECT Edition, MicroStation has introduced the V8i Task Theme to enable users of V8i to make a seamless transition. With the General workflow and the Dark Theme for MicroStation, users migrating from other applications to MicroStation will have the convenience of using a familiar UI. The Collaborate ribbon tab in MicroStation brings together all the collaboration tools and iTwin Services for improved collaboration on projects.
