As someone who just recently got to learning SketchUp, I quickly realized how beginner friendly the software is! It provides easy tools to create designs and sketches, or if working on visualization, SketchUp is a good place to start! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish it was compatible with more other softwares for architectural use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is quick and easy for novice people to learn and get a good understanding of how 3D Modeling works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sketchup needs more solid state tools that would help in organic modeling and please, please, please, can we have some vertices to help connect linework easier. It's 2024 show me some vertex welding capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It has been my go-to tool for drawing for years! Coming from the AutoCad world SketchUp integrates 3D drawing, presentations, construction documents and detailing in one platform! The ease of use, fluid modeling and efficiency in which I can create the customized interiors I want to present to my clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some of the features can be cumbersome like switching and updating references from SketchUp to Layout or the intellegence of the dimensioning and annotating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its easy to learn and everything is very user friendly. I love that is available on ipad now to.
Plugins are easily downloadable and rendering is quite fun as well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I believe the layout software needs more improvement as it seems to crash and lag all the time.
Also maybe consideration for an inhouse rendering software that comes with the program that would be awesome Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the ability to import Revit models and then add in the 3D warehouse assets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I had a hard time learning the program coming from a Revit based background Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

User-friendly and almos game-like. Honestly the programme has evolved so much since I started using it 17 years ago started but never lost it's esscense, I keep learning how to do new things as needed. If someone just needs to learn the basics it is very easy to start and it has so many plug-ins, accuracy and compatibility nowdays. I love how easy it is to transicion from 3D sketchup models to DWG if necesary. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I am hoping they will come with better ways to present more technical drafts and blueprints directly, I know it is posible to transfer acurate information and finish those technical drawings if necesary, maybe there's already a way and I don't know it yet but I do love sketchup as it is and it is a fundamental tool for me as a designer and contractor.

Sketchup is complex enough to deliver hyperealistic renderings and drawings to our clients while being easy enough to train an entire team quickly with confidence. All submittals, from the simplest to the most complex, can be compelted in one place wheras prior to using Sketchup, we'd hop around between multiple programs. The multitude of available extensions provide neverending opportunity for excellent design presentations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sketchup can be touchy, freezing or crashing with the addition of just one component. Depending on the installed extensions, you can also run into issues when attempting to use them in conjunction with other features or settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

How user friendly it is! The controls are easy to understand, and is quick to learn within a couple days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
How the colors look like a coloring page. I wish they looked more real, instead of so flat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
