Stunningly awful - NO "Stars",

I've drawn all sorts of garden plans and elevations by hand for years, but I was in a hurry to kick out a piece of work this weekend. I purchased this program because I thought I'd be able to quickly draw simple features, plop in a few basic plants and render elevations. After all, version 3 of this program, although pretty clunky, was fairly basic and easy to use. The newest version MUST be much more intuitive. WRONG! The tools operate NOTHING like any human being I know actually draws. If anything, this program is LESS intuitive than earlier versions. Way too much emphasis on "catalogs" and automatic features and not nearly enough on ease-of-use. Amazing how software actually keeps getting worse instead of better. The folks who write these things really need to rethink from scratch how people create these types of drawings manually. At this point, pencil, ruler and quadrille paper are faster and easier (and cheaper)and yield better results. Don't waste your time and money on this.

What a waste of my time (and money)!!!,

I wish I have read other reviews before buying this product. I spent several hours trying to use this program (the manual does not help much)and ended learning by trial an error (many hours later). It is not friendly, nor easy.
My second problem was that I wanted to design a garden around my house and there is no feature or template to outline the house (at least not mine). There is not even a feature to draw just lines to show the house, so I have no idea of where to place the landscape in relation to my house!!!!!! And for sure I am not going to buy the House Design software just to be able to place the landscape somewhere. It was very frustrating!!!!

Time consuming and difficult to manipulate,
By A Customer

I struggled with this software for a couple of weeks then gave up. I'm no rookie-I am familiar with AutoCAD, Access, Excel, Word, Adobe Photoshop, Powerpoint, Project etc etc and this program just didnt seem to follow any of the rules. Realizing that a 3D image(incidentally there was no house template anything like mine) was going to take about as long as it took to landscape a garden, I tried 2D-hoping to superimpose walls and vegetation on a photo of my house...hours later i still couldnt easily construct the scene.If this were any other type of product, I would be retuning it for a refund-but with software you dont get to take it back.....so unless you want to spend many hours in front of your computer-rather than in the yard I suggest you pass on this.
