"With the release of Revu 10, adobe acrobat is more behind-the-8-ball as Bluebeam keeps raising the bar by just listening to their customers and implementing what is important in their industries. One of the many great features in Revu 10 is the Spaces Tab. With a job consisting of more than 340 bedroom units, the spaces feature allowed us to define every room in the building and specifically assign punch list items to contractors for completion. There again, Bluebeam making things easier for the end user."
