Pros

“Overall experience has been decent. Although I like the quality of rendering in Lumion, it takes a good amount of time to coordinate between multiple applications.”

Anukriti M.

Architectural Designer

“The ease of visualization. Whenever the file is uploaded to Lumion we can immediately see how it would shape.”

Bishnu A.

Project Engineer

“It can be slow sometimes especially if we have SketchUp models imported that have a lot of detail.”

Harrison B.

Interior Designer

Pros

“Our overall experience has been great, the integrated background removal tool for the product schedule has been a nice touch to create a clean display for clients and our team.”

Drake P.

Head of Design

“I also love the URL import tool; it makes it incredibly easy to bring in furniture and decor directly from the internet while automatically picking up the key details I need. Since I curate a collection of non-toxic, sustainable, and wellness-focused products, having everything stored and specified in one place feels effortless.”

Eugenia A.

Interior Designer Founder

“It keeps everything organized, streamlines communication with vendors, and reduces errors during purchasing. While it lacks client-onboarding tools like contracts and forms, its project management and purchasing workflow are efficient and reliable, making it an essential part of my daily operations.”

Benjo H.

Interior Designer - Owner

Cons

“For a normal user with least PC space, Lumion can be problematic which requires strong graphics as well.”

Bishnu A.

Project Engineer

“It could be costly.”

Bishnu A.

Project Engineer

“It does not achieve the great quality with lighting as other softwares on the market.”

Zorana E.

Architect

Cons

“I am about to switch to a new Programa account (as we have two companies now), but there is no way for me to share the existing projects I have with the new Programa account, meaning I have to manage two accounts for a while.”

Heather C.

Lead Designer and Business Manager

“when in the schedule, it takes a while to load and have to refresh as it wont fully load all items.”

Melissa L.

Founder, Lead Interior Designer

“For a whole house, the volume of items slows down navigation too much to place them all in one schedule. ”
