Sketchup is the best software to prepare any kind of model and it's the most suitable for architectural designs. Can easily learn this software its user friendly.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

creating any type of model is easier but our creative mid matters

What do you dislike most about this product?

This software is not suitable if you are a civil engineer because its not the Building informational modeling tool and also its very difficult to make small models unlike revit

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

This product can also focus on the building modelling where civil engineers can easily work on the software

Getting 3D construction drawings done at ease

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Trimble SketchUp Pro from other similar products?

Other designing software need to be installed in our PC and also needs to constantly updated. This issue is not present in Trimble Sketchup Pro, as there is an online version that can directly be accessed through Internet.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Getting the design concepts made is fun and easier, as the user interface is very friendly.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Getting high-level finishes is quite tedious, thus making it quite tiresome to implement them.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

For anyone interested in BIM Modelling and construction-related design software, I highly recommend that they try Trimble Sketchup Pro to get a feel for preparing designs.
