SketchUp is the fastest tool for architects. It is only second to drawing with a ballpen or pencil—a skill many are losing!
I primarily use the pen/Line and have configured hotkeys to switch between tools and navigate the scene.
1. The drawing tools guess what I want to draw and along which axis.
2. The camera changes its focal point to the nearest geometry in sight or to what I'm pointing at while orbiting.
Context: I've been modeling since Alex Bicahlo wrote the book on 3d Studio back in the 90s. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The mac version crashes too often, doesn't use the GPU properly and is poorly integrated with Enscape. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The in-depth tutorials to get you set up and the ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Certain features feel a bit limited and searching through the warehouse delivers mixed results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

intuitiveness as well as the amazing customer support I received. The software is applicable to many different specialties, as well as construction and design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The system can be a bit glitchy and can freeze up intermittently. Customer service is very helpful in addressing all of my concerns--this issue has been improved greatly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I absolutely love that the possibilities are endless with SketchUp. I enjoy being able to take the vision in my head and create a model that clients can see from so many angles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I honestly can't think of anything I don't enjoy about this software! Once you learn the commands it is really just amazing! No cons from me! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
intuitive, user friendly, vast array of plug ins are great. good import / export options for getting data into and out of sketchup. Much more user friendly than formIt Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
chasm of going from schematic design to production work in revit. Almost have to toss the sketchup model and start from scratch. Software can be buggy and unstable at times Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was introduced to sketchup in my college days by my friend.
The moment I witnessed sketchups user friendly UI I was amazed to use it.
Learning sketchup is so fast and easy, modifying and setting up preferences shortcuts makes it more easier.
Designing was made easy and fast.
Importing and exporting drawings with no crashes ofcourse on high specifications devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is no option to change a certain material to another, selecting similar material is also a problem in sketchup, although sketchup has live sync with lumion and vray it should have it's own rendering software which should render images quickly compared to lumion and vray.

Sketchup does a great job of keeping things open for flexibility and expandability through itself and 3rd party plug-ins and extensions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Cost of some of the add ins that should be standard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
