Virtual Architect Home & Landscape Platinum Suite

As others have mentioned, this software is not intuitive nor easy to use. Strange things happen. My design suddenly whisks off the screen by itself. You can find it but after half a dozen times, it gets really old. My computer completely hung up several times with Vista and I had to run the program in XP compatibility mode. Which solved that problem but not others. Some items wont place properly on your layout. I spent well over an hour trying to figure out how to get my design to print bigger than about half an inch by one-quarter of an inch. And now Ive forgotten how I did it. And on and on it goes....definitely not fun.

great concept to get business started. thank you

Not usable!

Very hard to use and understand.

Great software. Enjoying it.

Love the program and a great price. It installs easily and has many useful functions. It arrived quickly and came with a rebate also.

This software is quit powerful and is exactly what I was looking for. While not the current version (6.0 is most current), it is very comprehensive. I strongly suggest that: 1) any buyer use the tutorials included; 2) have your measurements ready to plug into the program when you actually begin the design process, and 3) while watching the tutorials, make a draft version of what project you want to create (like a kitchen) and dont worry about getting it perfect - while you learn the program! This is a CAD type program and can seem rigid/unforgiving. The undue and edit elements are very helpful when needed.

absolute garbage , dont waste your money . 26 yrs in the landscape business and wouldnt let a 4th grader use it for a class project.

To big of a learning curve - wanted something that I could bang out a quick floor plan for moving purposes.

There is a lot to figure out with this program. Be prepared to read and apply
