Bugs, bugs and more bugs. Bugs, bugs, and more bugs. Page orientation changes, I guess because it wants to. Fill, line, shape, magnification, and quite frankly just about everything else goes, yeah-na. I can't say anything good about this drawing software, especially compared to Visio. I might not be an architect but I am an engineer, just can't use this, I have to shut down often hoping to reset. Sorry, but for me this drawing software is not fit for purpose. By the way, it's these bad reviews that you 'Smartdraw' should be attending to, I note that your silence is deafening. I couldn't care less about the pricing, just wanted something that works, sorry, 'Smartdraw' doesn't.

Said it was a lifetime subscription and… Said it was a lifetime subscription and it wasn't. Software was nothing special, I wouldn't have bought it if it wasn't a lifetime deal. It won't even let me log in now with a new subscription. JUNK, STAY AWAY!!!!

Bad Bad Bad Started creating a quick drawing I desperatley needed. I went on to 'save' , and I got prompted to log in or 'create account' - so I logged in using google, then got prompted to pay for subscription... Not even the slightest option to go back to the drawing I spent time drafting.. felt like I was blackmailed: either you pay or your drawing is gone.. goodbye then... once and forever

Dark pricing patterns Okay tool, but dark pricing patterns on the "buy" page which makes me not trust the company. Right now, the pricing says $9.95 per month, billed annually. That's not $9.95 per month, $119.40. Pricing like that usually implies the ability to switch to monthly pricing, at a more expensive rate - instead, they're using an unethical pattern for pricing. The tool is fine, but the pricing model makes it an unacceptable business to work with. There are much much better tools available that offer annual AND monthly pricing (Whimsical, Mural, Miro, Figma, etc.).

The software keeps crashing I'm an Interior Designer and I have used SmartDraw for many years to draw layouts. It seems that it has gone worse over the years as it keeps crashing way too often and it doesn't even keep your previous versions of work. I just lost about 3 hours of work when it crashed AGAIN, even though I had saved all the time. It says I have a "damaged" file, but I can't open it. In my experience there's very little support for users.
