CompareOracle Aconex
Sigmaviu vs Oracle Aconex
Oracle Aconex is built for multi-party construction correspondence: transmittals, reviews, and a common data environment many contractors are already contracted to use. Sigmaviu keeps a document register with versioned approval on the same project as schedule, cost, quality, and field logs.

Center of gravity
One organization’s project, from schedule and cost through documents and field logs.
A shared project space for many companies’ correspondence and files.
Document control
Control number, version freeze during approval, and separation of duties on the register.
Transmittals and review workflows across organizations.
Who is in the room
Staff seats, a client portal for what you publish, and a vendor door for qualification.
Many contracted parties working in the same project environment.
Field and cost
Daily reports, RFIs, submittals, earned value, and change orders on that project.
Process and documents. Cost and earned value are not the reason to buy Aconex.
Handover
Closeout readiness from files already linked on the job.
The correspondence record is the handover many contracts expect.

Questions buyers ask
Is Sigmaviu a common data environment for every contractor?
It is your organization’s project system. External people see a published portal or a single review link, not a shared multi-company mailroom.
Can both hold drawings?
Yes. Aconex is often the contracted place those drawings move between companies. Sigmaviu holds the revision your own team approves and builds from.
What if the contract names Aconex?
Keep Aconex for that obligation. Use Sigmaviu where you still need cost, safety, quality, and the internal project record.
