### "Easy to use 3D Modelling Software"

July 25, 2018

5.0

Pros

The layout is easy to understand and makes it easy to use the software. CAD Designer of any skill level can use this software. Integrations with other programs help to import floor plans etc.. very easily. Price is less compared to other top programs like autocad, solidworks etc..

Cons

Auto zoom-in and the auto Zoom-out function needs improvement. Sometimes it is making it difficult to sculpt 3d terrain.

### "Layout is fast and easy for drawing house plans"

July 27, 2018

4.0

I can work faster and do more in one program.

Pros

I appreciate the user-friendly tools- it's easy to add measurements, change line thicknesses and text. I used to use Rhino, then move the drawings over to Illustrator to do the same things.

Cons

I need to learn the details of the program, like changing scale and grid pattern, as they aren't as easily accessable.

### "SketchUp Pro is for Pros"

November 7, 2016

4.0

SketchUp Pro has a rather steep learning curve. Do not expect to just sit right down and start whipping out magnificent drawings and illustrations, because, unless you are a Pro, that is just not going to happen. The program requires practice, patience, and plenty of both.

Pros

It does scaling and dimensioning very well.

Cons

Very difficult to learn and quite clumsy in some of its features.

### "Love using SketchUp"

January 28, 2019

4.0

Pros

Learning to use the software does not take very long, there are a lot of great resources online to help learn the basics quickly. When we need a quick sketchup for a client, we always go to SketchUP.

Cons

Even though the software is relatively easy, there can be areas that are a little tricky.

Easy to use for beginners, Customer support is helpful!

Pros

It is very intuitive and great for planning out and designing 3D space. The warehouse and extensions are a big plus!

Rendering is not the best at times, sometimes it takes a while and is not always crisp. but having a high end computer will help.

### "A must have for architects"

September 5, 2017

5.0

Pros

I love the ability to help clients see in a simulated environment what their building is going to look/feel like. The options to use lighting during different parts of the day helps them see the need to address lighting issues/concerns.

Cons

A bit of a learning curve but well worth the effort. If you're not careful, you can quickly build out incorrectly.
