1. Perpetual license. I own my software/designs. So many companies are going to subscription-based software, and I couldn't justify spending thousands of dollars only to lose my work if I didn't renew my subscription. I would prefer to own it and pay to update it as necessary; Especially since I'm only doing residential design to build my own homes. 2. Designing in CA is fun! It's a rewarding creative outlet. I spend time every day working on my designs. I can make them as minimal or as elaborate as my heart desires. 3. The software has, directly and indirectly, expanded my understanding of construction principles and vocabulary. If I don't understand a word or option in the program, I simply research it. I've learned so much since I started using the program! 4. It's a pretty robust software program and it can do A LOT! Here is what I believe are Chief Architect's best features: Automatically build roofing and framing layers; Print real, usable architectural drawings which may be used by general contractors; Watermark, so the user may copywrite their work; Incredible library of materials; Allows the user to update their plan in both 2D and 3D; Home may be uploaded to their website and viewed by those the user gives permission.
