Orkestra is my #1 reccomendation for both Dynamo Management and Dynamo Deployment rolled into one. The ability to push tools to a toolbar and manage packages from a cloud platform is shared by a few plugins, but the MetaData you can embed into those tools, the embedded wiki section recently added, and the improved speed set Orkestra a step above. Some of its greatest value comes in the Dev too... Show more

Orkestra helped a lot since the major obstacles like installation of packages and user friendliness of Dynamo were completely solved by Orkestra. All the users, despite the level of competence in Dynamo, may now use Orkestra without even knowing that there is any Dynamo behind. Which is definitely helping to gain productivity on modeling execution. Modeling in Revit got more productive because eve... Show more

Dynamo Deployment, both graph and package distribution, are seamless and painstakingly easy with Orkestra. No longer do I have to track down who has what version of “xyz” package(s) or if the cause of an errored workflow is due to missing packages or knowing if everyone has the most up to date workflow. No more! All of that is easily controlled with the management fighting super power of Orkestra!... Show more

Orkestra has significantly improved our workflow by addressing many of the technology challenges we have had in the past. Our team’s user adoption of automation has also risen due to the ease of access and reliability, and gone are the days of frustrating technology issues. Our biggest firmwide improvements are in reliability due to package controls in the cloud, tracking and minimizing errors/f... Show more

Orkestra helps WB making Dynamo automation available to everyone globally to 1000+ people in 17 offices in different time zones. Having a centralized and easy-to-reach space where to share functional routines (meaning that they work straight away from the folder without having to open and run them) allowed us to increase usage of the routines we develop and avoid duplication of work.

Orkestra Online made it possible to roll out multiple Dynamo tools to multiple users because of its ability to manage packages. The added functionality of the ribbon made this user friendly for my whole department. Without Orkestra Online, my group would not have been able to share the tools we create. Dynamo tools have improved the efficiency of many of our Revit tasks and we would not be able to... Show more

I can't say enough great things about what you are doing with Orkestra. Such a wonderful tool.
Before Orkestra I had been looking for something to make toolbars in Revit for my Dynamo scripts. I have tried a few options, some were OK-ish and some were just bad. Orkesta is a GIANT step forward from everything I tried before!

Myself and our whole design team are very happy with Orkestra and how it functions. It is utilized everyday by different design groups from the start of projects through the end. Not sure how we functioned a few years ago without being able to seamlessly use the Dynamo scripts we have created across our design teams.

I have found it very convenient to not have any local packages on my machine, and just load up a template file that lives on Orkestra whenever I need to create a script. This ensures that the packages that our scripts are built with are the same that the user will be running them with through Orkestra. I think the biggest thing is whenever I open the analytics tab and see that a new person is usin... Show more

Orkestra brings the ability to roll out large, complicated scripts to multiple members with no issues over packages versions. Scripts which normally cause slow down in Revit after running, don’t have that issue when run via Orkestra. Saving snippets of nodes to quickly move code between different dynamo scripts. Especially useful when certain packages/nodes are not available in later versions of ... Show more
