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.

Overpriced and the trial is terrible Overpriced and the trial is terrible, and doesn't offer all of Smartdraws capabilities. We did a trial document on this and couldn't even print it out to see what it look like, it says that there's a watermark on it but we couldn't get it to print out nor could we export it. We were still a day within our trial, but it was trying to force us to buy it. We're not buying anything we can't see on paper. It's one thing to look at it on the computer, another thing to look at the end product. Their trial is reasonable, but considering you have to pay all 12 months at once, there is other software out there that does the same thing, for a lot less. That means if you decide you don't like it after several months, you're still stuck paying for the whole entire year. At this point I wouldn't recommend it. Don't be fooled by all the biased reviews, many of those places are paid advertisers, be careful what you believe

excellent product, easy to use I have used this product to create electric schematics for test boxes on aircraft equipment. design flow faultfinding diagrams for techs to be more effective in diagnosing faults. and even a plan view to submit to council so i could build a 3 bay garage so what can i say, excellent product, easy to use, lost of preformed templates that will also give you better ideas this program is affordable, recommend it for all types of users math, science, media, presentations, planning, ill stop now as i could go on and on.

Disappointing We have enrolled for their free trial for experience the product. We created some workflows but we realised that it is not fit for purpose. UX and UI are behind of the industry (personal opinion). Hence, we did not pay for the subscription. When we want to get a screenshot of what we have created so far, they said we need to get a subscription. Based on the GDPR they need to provide user generated data in their platform, however they are breaching the data protection law for generating revenue. Furthermore, when we want to get monthly subscription (apparently they dont provide), they wanted us to pay yearly fee to access to a single ill-designed workflow. We did not even want to get the workflow itself, just the data we have in the platform (in written). Disappointing experience

Complete garbage Unless you save every 6 minutes, the software will become buggy and completely mess up your design; IE - zoom feature will add a toilet every time you try and select zoom, walls will start adding arrows even though you have not selected to add arrows, Select and place a door and it will freeze the entire screen. Complete junk for the overly priced piece of garbage it is. Avoid this software.
