"A good free architectural design editor"

4/5

What do you like best about Sweet Home 3D?

I really like the ability to view the 3d models while editing the plans in real time. The free library of free 3d models is enough, although if you want to go a little better you can buy or import your own models. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sweet Home 3D?

I don't like the navigation system of the 3d viewing window, one should be able to move easily as a video game would normally, the controls can be optimized much better. Video rendering quality is poor Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sweet Home 3D:

It is a simple software, but very valid for small projects that do not require high quality 3d modeling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to draw but few objects to use"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Sweet Home 3D?

I used the program to make a number of garden designs. This works fine but I miss the objects to add them to get a better picture of how it will actually be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sweet Home 3D?

I would appreciate it if more objects were added. I tried to draw a home with the program. I don't like the interface for that. However, I know that it is a free program so I take that for granted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great design software."

5/5

What do you like best about Sweet Home 3D?

It is very good software has many interesting features is easy to use, the interface of the program is intuitive, all objects are separated by category, you can modify size, color, textures and more, the program is quite light, one of the best things is that you can record videos in the first person of the creations, which allows you to show in a very visual way through animations the environment created, what I like most is that the progress you have is kept at all times so if Some reason you forgot to save or turn off your computer, you will not lose your project, there are many 3d models available on the website, but you can add yours too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sweet Home 3D?

So far I have not had any problems this software really is very complete and versatile. The online version isn't update and is not working anymore it was very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Sweet Home 3D:

There is no reason not to use this software if you need to do some layout, design, interior displays, architecture, animation, photos, it is very useful, and it is free. This software has an online version however I recommend using the desktop version, the web version is not bad, but it runs much better on the desktop and is easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Sweet Home 3D solving and how is that benefiting you?

This software has been very useful to me when making sketches of interiors of houses, offices, shopping centers, etc., showing how it would look like or organizing spaces, as well as it has also helped me to create animations and show in a more interactive way some environment before being taken to reality, customers like to see how their projects will look even before building, this helps the client to make changes, as they see how the place they want to remodel or create looks if they do not see how they imagine it. them in this case the software is very useful and meets the requirements, because I can create 3D models in a short time, very specific, detailed and uncomplicated, with the great variety of 3D models that it has, the creation time is shortened, although you can add your own models, just slide, edit, add textures and color.
