Customer Reviews

Worst Software on the Planet
I can't understand why this product is still being pawned off on the public. This is hands down the worst Home design program ever developed. I have tried to use this software since FloorPlan 3. It was trash then and still is. It has an incredible amount of professional features. It's just too bad you can't use them efficiently with all the gliches and slow rendering even on my state of the art Core2 duo, Radeon x1950xt machine. Save your time and money on this garbage. IMSI's tech support will not help in the slightest. It is full of bugs and the slowest rendering program I have ever seen. Their are several other quality home design architectual programs that actually work. A full feature program like Punch Home Design, Better Homes and Gardens Home Designer is great, or even the less expensive Broderbund 3d Home Architect all are a lot better products. You could even use the kids 'Sims' pc game or 'Second Life' online and get a lot better quality and speed remodling and designing homes.

Not the greatest software, but better than others
Easy to use for planning layouts but it is a bit buggy. There are several known bugs and the publisher has yet to address them with any kind of update.

For simple layouts, this program is fairly intuitive, but for more complex items, there is quite a bit of a learning curve.

Full of defects
I wanted to design a kitchen in my flat so I decided to try this software. What a mistake! I cannot stress how poor this software is. $30 is not much to pay for a basic product, but it is a lot to pay for nothing.

Due to a raft of bugs it is virtually impossible to achieve anything productive. It's a struggle to even draw a set of walls. As for trying to get the software to show the wall dimensions....forget it! Walls start to mysteriously dissapear, text starts to collide on the design obscuring values, and some of the graphics don't print including the measurements. The design file becomes 'corrupted' preventing any new graphics being added...and I suspect it's .dxf export function doesn't produce valid .dxf files, which means the design/work is stuck in the software. Who ever developed this software needs to consider a career change. I won't mention the software test team because I'm assuming there isn't one. Amazon, dump this product!
