SketchUp Reviews & Product Details - Page 11

Skecth up was incredibly easy to use. I was able to seamlessly implement into my work. It allowed me to communicate ideas with clients and collaborators in a way that was impossible before I started using it. I use it both for my work as a designer and for personal home remodeling projects. It has become part of my daily workflow. I was surprised at all of the resources available for integrating the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sketchup has definitely made it incredibly easy for me to create my designs, and it also has many training available to continue learning how to use all the tools available and make your designs as realistic as you imagine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing I don't like, I would simply recommend that there be a greater variety of materials without having to download them from the warehouse. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the simplicity of it as well as the vast library available through 3d warehouse. I also like the basic commands and the power they typically have within each function. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does have a slight learning curve especially when comming over from software like Rhino 7 and AutoCAD which makes it a little challenging to get working in the software in a speedy manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SketchUp is one of the easiest virtual design tools out there. It makes assembly of ideas quick and easy, while being malleable enough to change on the fly. Extremely useful in preliminary design, and even useful during post design phases for explaining things to contractors in 3d. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While a lot of times it is alright for presentations to look "sketchy", it would be great to have some way to create a somewhat more realistic appearance or lighting effect wihtin the program. With the understanding that this tool was not intended for that, it would be great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can get answers to any of your questions with all the tutorial videos and articles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think when you are ready to create your floor plans, transitioning to Layout can be tough without a tutorial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With SketchUp Pro, building a 3D model with unique textures and finishes customized to the client's vision is possible! And now with the SketchUp Viewer on all devices including the Meta Quest headset, we can help our clients understand the planned space and make changes before construction begins!

SketchUp has a lot of free tutorials available to aid in learning the program and understanding the vast capabilities. There is also a forum to help people find solutions to the issues that they may face while working in the program.

I use SketchUp as my primary design visualization software for my business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SketchUp has a secondary program called LayOut to aid in presentations from the model. It can created PDF and JPG files for sharing. It is wonderful to be able to make a change in the model and then see that change in the presentation file, but there are some communication errors that can be very time consuming. With persistence these can be worked around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The intuitive ease of use. It allows us to quickly illustrate iterations of ideas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have not complaints. It would be nice to be able to more easily switch between drawing planes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how quickly you can get Ideas going and modify them as you go. I also love the ease of presentation with teh use of LayOut. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I cant really find anyhting negative about it.

They continue to improve over teh years and are always staying on top of bug fixes.

SkethUp is great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For me personally SU has been hard to learn. I am in my 50's so I wasn't raised with technology. With that said, if you're unsure if you should use it, I say try it! I've been working with a teacher for about two years and what I love most is how professional the drawings look when they are completed. It really elevates my designs as a designer and conveys the end product well to clients so they can see the results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For me personally, it's a very hard program to learn. I've been trying for two years and have worked with three teachers and taken two separate courses. There are so many nuances to this program and if one line is slightly off it can ruin the entire drawing moving forward. I learned CAD years ago and there was a snap feature to ensure the lines were connecting. I wish SU had something like that. I also really struggle with getting items on the face. I will place a piece of furniture in a drawing only to find out it's floating in the air. I also get very frustrated with the push pull feature. My god when I'm trying to punch out windows it never works as simple as when my teacher does it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SketchUp allows me to show a great visualization to my customers. We get to talk and "walk through" a real-time version of a piece of their house, business, or property together before we even start construction. It is a great tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be a difficult product to learn for some. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
