Easiest 3D modelling software. Very complete
Kommentarer: After several years using Sketchup, It has been a great partner in all the architectural projects I've worked in. It allowed me to develop and see my ideas in 3D really fast in order to decide if it was the right way or I should rethink it.
Fordele:
It is a very easy software to learn and use. I always use it for a variety of projects of medium complexity from houses to entire housing buildings or commercial buildings.
Ulemper:
The curve modelling is really hard or impossible. You will more likely be modelling rectangular or diagonal projects but not many curves. And if you do model curves, they might not look really sharp on renders.

Best software for architects and interior designers to learn
Kommentarer: I think this is one of the most basic 3d software you can use. Learning it is so easy that you can start building in it just after an hour of learning.And the results you can get from these are in par with the leading 3d modelling software. If you need rendered views of your project its a very good software.
Fordele:
Easy to use.Plugins available for most of the tasks.Easy integration with rendering softwares.Light weight so can run on any computer.Newer version can run directly from a web browser without needing to install anything.A very huge components library is available.
Ulemper:
Can be limited in terms of the kind modelling you can do. Working on curves or spheres is not easy so plugins are required for that. Not good for animations or videos.

Sketchup Cloud Version
Kommentarer: My review here is about the current, cloud-based free version of Sketchup, rather than the full version. But I will comment briefly on the full version. In general, Sketchup Pro is a good program for basic architectural modelling, and for the modelling of certain kinds of geometric forms, while having practically no functionality for organic modelling or sculpting. While the results can be 3D printed, the program was not designed for that purpose, and models should not be expected to be very precise or free of flaws. For many years, there was a downloadable free version that could do most of what the pro version could do, with the exception of "boolean" operations such as solid joining and subtraction. Several years ago it became harder to find the free version on the Sketchup site. Then the free version became a separate download and not available until one had tried the pro trial (the trial version used to default to a functional free version), and finally, the free option was switched to a cloud-based version. Presumably these changes have been made for financial reasons, but the end result is that we have a far more limited free version of the program, that is harder to use, and in my opinion less likely to attract users who would then switch to a paid version.
Fordele:
While this is a significant downgrade from the previous free versions, at least it is still free. I think it is an acceptable option for creating things like simple virtual rooms, or rectilinear shapes.
Ulemper:
This is a substantially restricted version of Sketchup, and is harder to use in several ways. The user interface has been pared down, which makes the workspace visually cleaner, but makes it more difficult to find functions. Many of the most commonly used function icons are hidden behind other icons, and are only accessible by hovering and switching which one is on top. That makes it harder to teach newcomers how to use the software, since it adds multiple extra steps to tutorial instructions. Also, the choice of placing many functions in flyouts adds recurring pain points to the user experience, as one must continually swap out functions while working. All of this would be a moot point if there were a simple preference toggle that let one choose to have all functions display at once.

3D modeling for non 3D modelers
Kommentarer: Overall, our team likes to use Sketchup. The ease of being able to express our ideas, and with the accuracy it can now provide, it's definitely a tool that we rely on.
Fordele:
Sketchup has gained popularity because of its easy UI. Compared to other 3D modeling applications, it is very easy to understand the interface and functionality. For company use, this means ease of training staff. That said, advanced users can still discover features later on through plug-ins and the 3D warehouse.
Ulemper:
We're currently using the free version, of course it is limited. I liked that before they had a perpetual license. Now it's all just subscription, which I find too tedious and stressful as a business owner.

Sketchup - a easy to learn fun to work with 3D software solution
Kommentarer: I modeled a couple of houses from scratch and from blueprints with it. It works smoothly and it's great for architecture.
Fordele:
Sketchup is easy to learn, it's fun to work with and the user gets high quality quick results.
Ulemper:
The subscription model is the thing I don't like about it.
