Pros

“I appreciate the appropriately restrained level of detail in the content making it more user-friendly, the linking between parts and sections which reduces conflicts and ensures a higher level of coordination throughout our documents and formatting and printing features which greatly reduce time.”
JG

Jill G.

Senior Specifier, Owner

“I like the ability to review questions and options, comparing them against a defined direction, as well as the links to manufacturers' information, when necessary.”
RB

Richard B.

Architect

“Our company appreciates the wide variety of spec sections readily available, the constant updates to reference standards, manufacturers, etc., and the use friendly interface.”
KT

Katrina T.

Controller - Construction Administration

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.”
BA

Bishnu A.

Project Engineer

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

Harrison B.

Interior Designer

Cons

“Export and Print features are a little rough and importing sections has limitations that are not fully explained, including features that do not work unless the file is "named correctly" but this is not explained.”
SH

Stacy H.

Architect

“The program seems to lag in making paragraph selections, especially as you select paragraphs rapidly without stopping to make edits.”
RJ

Russell J.

Architect

“The interface can sometimes be difficult when trying to edit text and formatting paragraphs for clean reading.”
JE

Joel E.

Studio Director

Cons

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

Bishnu A.

Project Engineer

“It could be costly.”
