Sweet Home 3D Reviews

Summary: This is a great tool for someone with no drawing skills or trade knowledge. It's easy to make a plan of an existing room, or planned changes. It can be printed out, and used as basis of discussion with trades people doing renos. It's much better than the alternative of hand drawing something.

Positive: It's easy to use and free. It let's me put in whatever units that I want to. It's quite fast and responsive.

Negative: I haven't seen an easy way yet to control which part of a design prints, though maybe I'm missing it.

Summary: Very good application. It solved many inconveniences with regard to the construction and distribution of the furniture, and other accessories. Thank you.

Positive: Excellent application. Very intuitive and complete. Easy to carry out projects with very little knowledge or nothing.

Negative: Nothing. Only missing to have the calculation of the materials and the cost of them.

Summary: It needs some getting used to, but so does all software. User intuition develops after a little experimenting and I got quite adept within the course of a single evening.

Positive: Sweet Home 3D really impresses with its realistic rendering powers.
There are enough good tools for the user to end up with a very convincing photorealistic rendering.

Negative: There are a few things you need to figure out for yourself, as the logic of designers don't always run parallel to the expectations of a 'jump-in' user who would rather experiment that read manuals to get to know the ropes.

Summary: Whether you need to show your client how their new office would look or need to show your family your dream house, this is one of the best recommended softwares. Given that the basic software is free, it's worth a try.

Positive: 1. Super easy to get started.
2. Tons of predefined objects. All you need to do is drag-and-drop.
3. Walk-through features.
4. Available in multiple languages.

Negative: 1. Options can be overwhelming.
2. Achieving professional level of competency involves a steep learning curve.
3. UI is a bit dated.

Summary: Very good. However there is the need to upgrade some of the furniture to suit most customers in other parts of the world.

Positive: It is fairly easy to learn and use. Simple in design and has a fair amount of home decor and furniture.

Negative: It does not have an iPad version that can be very useful considering the latest brands of iPads on the market and the trend of users shifting towards the powerful iPads. A need to give the iPad version serious consideration. Thank you.
