Home Designer Architectural

I ordered it in USB and received a disc. WTH??? Good thing I have an external disc drive or I would be returning it since the intended recipient has no way to load it.

Overall, I really like this software. For the money, it is a bargain. The one thing that you should do is be prepared for a bit of a learning curve...itll likely take a few hours of studying, primarily watching videos to get started. Additionally, make sure your computer meets at least the minimum requirements to run the program.

I’m always exploring new construction ideas and this is by far the best tool to do your preliminary drawings. Super easy to use. Very great value!!

I usually dont write a review but I decided to do one on this product. I have been buying this product since 2007 and upgrading when new ones come out and have enjoyed using them. But along the way they have gotten rid of alot of their stuff in their core catalage which now you have to purchase. I upgraded from 2021 to 2023 and was not inpress with the product. I would not pay the full price for this product.

When youre already paying $199 for a product, you shouldnt be nickled and dimed for additional content, particularly when the additional content doesnt even contain what is advertised. I paid an additional $4.99 for Docks and Waterways, and after I downloaded it, I realized that it didnt contain anything about adding docks and nothing about waterways. A complete waste of my money and time.

Using the product to remodel and expand a 1940s era home. The training videos are really well done and are absolutely helpful in becoming familiar with all of the various things one can do with this awesome planning tool. I am really having fun both learning the tool and creating meaningful plans for my vision for our house. A++ in my book.

Were remodeling or home now since all of our kids have left the nest. My wife has a hard time visualizing our concept and I have a strong CAD background- this was a perfect software package for us. I modeled our home with great accuracy which will benefit us moving forward. I downloaded many optional catalogs which allowed me to provide conceptual layouts for both my wife and our contractor. I can easily print material lists for the entire project or separate rooms for reference. I have great faith that our project will turn out exactly as we hope because this software made our project come to life on our computer screen.

Software works great but of course you have to purchase the highest version of the product to be able to really do any customization to the roofs. If you want to work on anything other than a very basic plan this product isnt for you unless you willing to pay for the $500 version of the software.

I like everything about it so far. It has an option called Space Planning that lets you place rooms in any configuration that you want and let the program build the walls for you as near as it can from your configuration. Simple editing from there to get the desired result. Very happy with the software.

This company should be embarrassed to release such poorly designed software in “2021”.
