"Great Landscape Design Competition for the Big CAD Guys"

4/5

What do you like best about Vectorworks Landmark?

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.

What do you dislike about Vectorworks Landmark?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Vectorworks Landmark:

I'd recommend this software if one has the ability to invest the time to properly learn how to use the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vectorworks Landmark solving and how is that benefiting you?

We used it for condocs and had minor success in using it for presentations and proposals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Power and Performance"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Vectorworks Landmark?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vectorworks Landmark?

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.

Recommendations to others considering Vectorworks Landmark:

Take a look at several finished, rendered 3D landscapes and compare the effectiveness. I saw a real difference that made investing in VW worth it (and that investment was cost and time to train). See if the program you are considering and comparing will give you complete cut/fill calculations (VW does) or see how many schedules are built-in. Those are the big time savers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vectorworks Landmark solving and how is that benefiting you?

After completing the planting plan in Vectorworks, the program generates a complete and accurate plant list/count/budget. It's an unbelievable time-saver that clients love. I've also used VW to generate hardscape budgets and overall budgets. Nothing gets the job going more than well-done budgets that give the homeowner a sense of control. What used to take me days to complete now happen through a click dropdown. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Way better than AutoCAD"

5/5

What do you like best about Vectorworks Landmark?

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.

What do you dislike about Vectorworks Landmark?

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.
