    It is perfectly suited for residential work, and work where the project requires integrated 2d and 3d. It is terrible for integrated energy modeling. This needs to be fixed immediately.

    Pros
    Vectorworks, Inc.
    • 3D modeling - no need to start in SketchUp or other more rudimentary programs.
    • Seamless import/export with other programs - ideal communication with consultants.
    • Superb customer service, training, and tech support.

    Cons
    Vectorworks, Inc.
    • The program is getting a little 'fat', and needs to be slimmed down. It is starting to bog down a bit when doing certain functions. The program of late is more buggy then we are used to seeing.
    • I like how smooth Sketchup is in 3D. It would be great to get VW's to be more responsive in 3D.
    • The space tool is very clunky.
    • I would be great if a texture map could be a video and not just a still image. We could really use that.
    • PLEASE get the energy modeling capabilities up to speed. It needs to be much more intuitive and NOT based on Passive House standards. Please include a clear output for a projects Energy Use Intensity (EUI) and how a project is doing relative to the 2030 Commitment.

    Vectorworks, Inc.
    • Subscription model ensures we always have the latest versions - per-seat license is very affordable.
    • Training costs are low (i.e. new hires get up to speed quickly).
