No much problems on this tool usage, only that exporting option does not support large file exporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the pre-designed elements that make it very easy to have a good overview of a project with detailing, dimensions, line weight all embedded within the components you chose from the catalog Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the fact that as you chose prefab components, they are very difficult to edit. You cannot customize most of them or if you do it is highly complicated to have them edited both in 2d and in 3d. I have not yet found a good workflow with non traditional designs.

Vectoroworks can not only be used for landscape design but also for advertising content. Its a great way to edit photos and create new documents if you do not have adobe editor Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike how you can't export large files. There are times I would create an image I wanted to export, but when i went to just select a section to export it would be too large. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Landmark is an easy to use CAD software that is compatible with other CAD programs, which allows for collaboration with other professionals, and also has great rendering capabilities to generate legible plans. Great tech support, too! The program is set up differently than AutoCad, but once the structure of the program is figured out, its fairly easy to take it from there. Importing other files types has been easy, too, such as adding aerial photos, pdf or jpeg images as backgrounds and supplemental information on the sheet. Its nice to be able to lay everything out in one program and be able to seamlessly update the plans as changes are made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Getting other CAD files to import properly can be challenging. CAD blocks need to be exploded to get the basic line work to be modified in some cases. I have had some issues with large files crashing, but there are a lot of program updates that keep the software working and compatible with other software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's great to have the flexibility to draft lights on a computer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Functions take a bit to learn without prior instruction. Better tutorial would be ideal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to render 3D, produce irrigation design, grading plans, detail, hardscape and planting plans all in on simple package! I haven't even mentioned the video walk through, VR, solar analysis, storm water and I can work with DWG files from others! Wow! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not really anything! It's very versed and full of supposed! But to put something down, it doesn't make me coffee. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Intuitive, video training, support, constant growth Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Too many companies are still using AutoCAD and revit. Rendering takes a while Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This software ;package is oriented to landscape and civil design. It is one of the most comprehensive of the major CAD providers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The learning curve was fairly steep. I had several workshop sessions at Nemetschek and had representatives visit my office. We eventually purchased the product but never fully adopted it ,for everyday use because the office had been previously exposed to ACAD, so the entire office never really became conversant in its use.

This is definitely the most versatile and powerful CAD program at the best price. Not cheap, but it transformed my workflow and the quality of my presentations to clients. Once you get used to thinking in objects instead of lines (as in, drawing the wall, not two parallel lines), it allows for fast and effective 3D design that is particularly readable. As a Landscape Designer, I don't think there's another program that can model the landscape as well and give you such a realistic model of the site. Not only can 'walk-thru's' and 'camera shots' give the homeowners a clear and appealing presentation of the proposed design, but while designing you can see how things will, or won't work.

Mastering Vectorworks is a real mountain to climb. This is no simple Sketchup type program. I have several colleagues who worked through training manuals to learn VW, but most needed several days of intense training courses to begin to get it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This software is ideal for landscape architects and landscape designers. It combines the best of three different programs into one. The smart object plant features make putting together a professional looking and detailed plan immensely easier than in any other CAD software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is definitely a learning curve, but this is the case with learning any software. However, it is manageable and most college students coming out of school can pick it up very quickly. I wish that there were more users as has been challenging finding experienced users to employ. However, most of the new graduate hires are able to pick it up pretty quickly.
