echo3D vs Orangelogic
Choosing the Best Digital Asset Management Platform (DAM) for 3D Content
Partnered with the best
Why choose echo3D over Speckle?
The Fundamental Difference.
Speckle is a technical data exchange tool built for BIM Managers & Engineers. It is designed to move raw geometry data between complex software like Revit and Rhino. It is powerful for design, but complex for sharing.
echo3D is a centralized 3D Asset Management platform built for the entire enterprise. It takes massive, complex 3D files and automatically optimizes them so IT, creative, sales, marketing, leadership, and clients can view them instantly—without needing CAD software or high-end computers.
Speckle is for the 5 people in your company who use Revit. echo3D is for the 5,000 people who need to see the result.
Why Enterprise Teams Choose echo3D
| Feature |
Speckle (The Design Connector) |
echo3D (The Universal Hub) |
|---|---|---|
|
Primary Goal |
Interoperability between CAD tools |
Universal Visualization & Sharing |
|
Optimization |
❌None. Preserves heavy data for engineering accuracy |
✅ Automatic Compression. Reduces massive files (GBs) to lightweight assets (MBs) for smooth viewing |
|
Accessibility |
❌High Barrier. Often requires specific software plugins or technical knowledge |
✅ Zero Barrier. Works in any browser. Send a link, view the model |
|
Sharing |
❌Internal Streams. Focused on moving data between designers |
✅ External & Internal. Share secure, password-protected links with clients or vendors instantly |
|
Mobile & AR |
❌Limited viewer capabilities |
✅ Instant AR. Auto-generates QR codes to view massive industrial models in the real world on mobile |
Solve the "Heavy Model" Problem
Large organizations deal with massive 3D files that crash browsers and are impossible to email. echo3D solves this automatically.
1. View the Un-Viewable
When you upload a massive 3D scan or CAD file to echo3D, our cloud engine processes it. We create lightweight versions for the web while keeping the original safe.
Result: A distinct URL that loads your 500MB industrial model on a client’s iPad in seconds.
2. Share Without Friction
Stop asking stakeholders to "download this viewer" or "install this plugin."
Internal: Your Product team can review designs in 3D directly in their project management tools.
External: Send a secure link to a client. They click it and see the product. No login required for them.
3. Automatic Format Standardization
Your engineering team works in .obj, .fbx, or .stl. Your marketing team needs .usdz for iOS or .glb for the web.
With Speckle: You are stuck with raw data streams ❌
With echo3D: We automatically convert your uploaded files into every standard format your organization needs. ✅
Stick with Speckle if:
You are a structural engineer who needs to move wireframes from Grasshopper to Revit or if you are editing geometry data programmatically.
Switch to echo3D if:
You need to show your models to people who don't know how to use CAD.
You need to share massive files with clients without them downloading 2GB attachments.
You need a centralized, searchable library for all your organization's 3D content.
Enterprise-Grade Security
Large organizations cannot rely on open-source projects for sensitive IP. echo3D provides the infrastructure Global 2000 companies require.
- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC): Define exactly who can view, edit, or download assets.
- On-Premise Deployment: Run echo3D entirely on your own servers (Red Hat / Linux).
- SSO Integration: Seamless login for your thousands of employees.
