Hexagon Multivista vs Track3D

Two ways to turn 360° site captures into progress numbers. Hexagon Multivista Building Progress Reporting is a service: the project supplies a federated NWD model and a P6 or Excel schedule, Multivista or the project team captures 360° photos, Hexagon's technology marks model elements built or unbuilt and analysts QA every update. Track3D is a software platform that measures installed work straight from captures with no BIM model required to start, priced per square foot.

What it doesCompares 360° site photos with the 3D model and schedule to report progress by trade, floor or system. This progress reporting service from Hexagon Multivista uses automated model-to-photo comparison of 360° photos against a federated 3D model (NWD) and a project schedule (P6 or Excel), marking model elements built or unbuilt and reporting progress by trade, floor, or system. Hexagon says its technology detects progress automatically and expert analysts QA every update. Its FAQ says building progress reporting requires an NWD model, a P6 or Excel schedule, and 360° photos from approved apps such as Multivista or Hexagon GoCapture; drone and SLR photos are not supported; setup can take up to 6-8 weeks; and reports are typically available 48-72 hours after images are posted. Lists compatibility with Autodesk ACC, Procore, Primavera P6, and Microsoft Project, and up to 10 years of data hosting. It sits in Hexagon Multivista's Analyze services alongside deviation analysis (which Hexagon describes as an AI-driven model-to-scan comparison) and UAV-based earthwork progress reporting. Separately, Hexagon announced on Oct 6, 2022 that it would integrate AVVIR's AI-powered technology into its construction portfolio; we did not find a Hexagon page naming AVVIR as the engine of this service. Re-read Oct 17, 2026: the same service page also advertises "agnostic data inputs" (360° photos, LiDAR scans or third-party tools, self-captured or Multivista-captured), which is broader than its FAQ; Hexagon's GoCapture app lets project teams self-capture 360° photos, 360° walks or 2D photos mapped to floor plans and BIM in its Analyze Hub. Re-checked Oct 19, 2026: the service page is unchanged in substance (NWD model, P6 or Excel schedule, approved 360° apps, drone and SLR photos not supported, setup up to 6-8 weeks, reports typically 48-72 hours after images are posted, email alerts when a report is ready); one FAQ answer on the same page says reports are usually ready within 48 hours, so confirm turnaround with Hexagon. The 2022 AVVIR press release was not re-read today (hexagon.com returned an access-denied response). Re-checked Oct 20, 2026: the service page is unchanged in substance (NWD model, P6 or Excel schedule, 360° photos captured by Multivista or the project team, approved apps only, drone and SLR photos not supported, reports by trade, floor or system, email alerts, up to 10 years of hosting, ACC, Procore, Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project compatibility). The FAQ still gives two turnaround answers (typically 48-72 hours, and usually within 48 hours) and two setup answers (up to 6-8 weeks, and up to eight weeks); confirm with Hexagon. Re-checked Oct 22, 2026: the service page is unchanged in substance (NWD model, P6 or Excel schedule, 360° photos from approved apps, drone and SLR photos not supported, agnostic data inputs also advertised, analysts QA every update, email alerts, up to 10 years of hosting, ACC, Procore, Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project compatibility); the FAQ still gives both turnaround answers (typically 48-72 hours, and usually within 48 hours) and both setup answers (up to 6-8 weeks, and up to eight weeks). The site menu now lists a Getting Ahead with AI section on how AI supports owners (not read). Re-checked Oct 23, 2026: the service page is unchanged in substance (NWD model, P6 or Excel schedule, 360° photos from approved apps, drone and SLR photos not supported, agnostic data inputs also advertised, analysts QA every update, email alerts, up to 10 years of hosting, ACC, Procore, Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project compatibility); both turnaround answers (typically 48-72 hours, and usually within 48 hours) and both setup answers (up to 6-8 weeks, and up to eight weeks) remain.

Where the vendor descriptions differ

  • Inputs: Hexagon's FAQ says progress reporting for new construction needs a 3D model in NWD format, a schedule in P6 or Excel format and 360° photos from approved apps such as Multivista or Hexagon GoCapture, and that drone and SLR photos are not supported; the same page also advertises agnostic data inputs (360° photos, LiDAR scans or third-party tools, self-captured or Multivista-captured). Track3D says it measures installed work directly from capture and that no BIM model is required to start, so a project can be measured from its first day.
  • How progress is produced: Hexagon describes automated model-to-photo comparison that identifies built versus unbuilt elements, with expert analysts checking each update, reports by trade, floor or system in a cloud portal and email alerts when a report is ready. Track3D describes VisualTrack (visual documentation), ProgressTrack (quantified installed work across job activities) and DeviationTrack (marked Coming Soon), plus a Schedule Recovery view of the pace needed to get back on track.
  • Turnaround and setup (vendor statements, checked Oct 23, 2026): Hexagon's FAQ gives reports typically 48-72 hours after 360° images are posted and, in another answer, usually within 48 hours; setup can take up to 6-8 weeks (another answer says up to eight weeks). Track3D says visuals are available in as little as 30 minutes from capture and progress data in as fast as 6 hours. Confirm both against your own capture schedule.
  • Integrations and data: Hexagon lists compatibility with Autodesk ACC, Procore, Primavera P6 and Microsoft Project and up to 10 years of project data hosting; GoCapture lets any team member self-capture 360° photos, 360° walks or 2D photos mapped to floor plans and BIM in its Analyze Hub, with professional capture available to supplement. Track3D's menu lists Procore, Autodesk Forma and Fieldwire integrations.
  • Pricing (checked Oct 23, 2026): Hexagon publishes no prices (no pricing link; multivistaservices.hexagon.com/pricing returns not found; Book a demo). Track3D's pricing page headline is $0.15/sqft with Talk to Sales, says every square foot registered for Progress Intelligence unlocks 5X that in visual documentation at no added cost, and lists unlimited users; minimums and term are not stated. Customer testimonials and percentage results on both sites are vendor material and not used here.

Questions to ask in your review

  • What Track3D counts as a registered square foot and whether there is a minimum
  • Whether Hexagon's progress reports accept captures from non-approved 360° apps in practice, given the FAQ and the agnostic-inputs claim differ
  • How each handles a model that lags the field (Hexagon needs an NWD model; Track3D says it does not)
  • What did you use it for, on what kind of work and project size?
  • How long did setup and training take, and who on your team did it?
  • What does it cost you in practice, compared with what the sales call said?
