I first purchased this software while in college for a class project. We had to start a buisness, name it, hire employees, and manage it within a three week period. One requirement was to have a presentation at the end. So I used this software to design my car dealership. It did produce a good visual and 3D model to use. The software is a little hard to use, the colors are off, and the included extras (cars, funiture, tv's, ect.) need to be updated to this century, and heaven forbid that you try ... Read More

As a preface, I'm a 20-year computer professional, a PC hobbyist and a reasonably bright person. Except for this product I have NEVER had a problem picking up software and making it reasonable useful within a very short amount of time. I had the AS18 version for months and was more than frustrated by it but decided that perhaps a less limited version was needed so I upgraded to 4000. That was bad choice number 2; number 2 in more ways than one. If you use any of the power tools God help you to try ... Read More

It has more capability than I will use in the next few months. But I cannot think of anything that is not in the package. Nice introductory manual, lots of help and video assists and the interface is not too cluttered.
Advice - be patient with yourself. this takes some time to aclimate your thought processes. Most software has an assumed "way of doing things". Read the manual and take the tutorials.

After reading the previous reviews and being an engineer, I can see why just about everyone wrote what they did. This program is very good at providing 3D versions of exterior/interior views of house plans as well as great renderings of landscaping including multitudes of trees, flowers, outdoor furniture, etc. This program is not, however a substitute for actual engineering/architectural house plans. It's just not accurate enough. It is not an engineering AutoCad type program.
I had previous ... Read More

Very dissapointed! Don't buy this program if you intend to design a new home. There are many aspects that are sorely lacking, for the price you pay. You cannot draw footings! This is your starting point for a house. You can't draw interior basement walls.....it will kick you into the floor plan section thinking your drawing a interior wall! You can't install plumbing fixtures in the basement! Such as a water heater, shower, or a sink....it kicks you into the floor plan again.
This company ... Read More
