Pros

“It also offers a wide range of templates for flowcharts, organizational charts, project workflows, and floor plans, making it easy to start designing without building everything from scratch.”
SS

Savya S.

Manager

“The software automatically aligns and formats shapes as they are added, which saves a lot of time compared to manually arranging elements in other tools.”
SS

Savya S.

Manager

“However, when compared to professional design tools like AutoCAD, SmartDraw feels limited in terms of precision drafting, advanced customization, and handling complex technical drawings.”
SS

Savya S.

Manager

Pros

“Payments and approvals from the client side are managed through one portal, thus making it easier for us to follow the trail of any deposits or milestone payments down to the signed contract.”

“I could use more design detail capabilities in the 3D. Books on a bookshelf styled, the ability to drape blankets over a chair/sofa.”
HC

Hannah C.

Principal Designer

“Assuming that everything works properly when syncing with QuickBooks, then there is sufficient information coming through for us to be able to recognize transactions rather than having to recreate them.”

Founder

Cons

“User interface could be more streamlined, I constantly have to hit other tabs to use tools/options that I feel should be lumped together (like editing text, all text editing and formatting options should be together, not under separate tabs).”
JH

Jensen H.

Crime scene technician

“The only thing I had difficulty with was making symbols display at a specific dimension.”
GH

Gerald H.

Owner

“I also found navigating between the lbrary and selections a bit of a pain, wish what I use the most would stay in my selections.”
NL

NANCY L.

Owner

Cons

“Another hindrance lies with the method of paying: fees incurred from using ACH payments, coupled with the maximum fee charged on each project, can cause a large project for our clients to be broken into smaller parts that may create problems when matching the deposit to the invoice at month end.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Eri D.

Founder

“Did not integrate with Quickbooks, Employee Clock in/clock out feature did not work properly, 3D rendering software was glitchy and not user friendly, no way to capture allowances for finishing selections, pricing increase was over 400% after first year.”
MM

Melissa M.

Owner

“The problem here is that the videos showcase stuff you can't access (or the videos are outdated and need to be removed from their directory).”
