Finally! A 3D home designer I can actually work and use to design our house!

I was really shocked to find how easy it is to use their website software. No other 3D home design even compares to Cedreo. So happy we found it!

Pros

How easy it is to view in 3D, navigate around in the space, and to create a house in hours, not weeks. And it's free! It's the best consumer 3D program I have used to date.

Cons

I wish there was a novice or casual user tier that was not so expensive but gave more furnishings and the ability to have a few different versions of the design. Only working on one small house, so we don't need to create many different houses - just one.

Useful for Real Estate Marketing

Cedreo has been amazing customer service wise. Whether or not is was a support issue, adding additional artwork, or just general account questions they are always responsive and timely. They really make sure you are apart of the team and that your feedback is heard. Their instructional videos are very helpful when it comes to learning the programming as well.

Pros

This software takes a lot of the guess work out of the actual rendering and creation of the basics. The prebuilt textures, furnishings, and landscaping are a huge time saver. You can add in floor plans for easy scaling and drawing from the architectural plans. The renders come out extremely detailed and the camera is easy to navigate to supply multiple viewpoints.

Cons

Some things are very European in look and terminology, but I know they are actively working to update that. I think functionality can be a bit clunky at times but overall it is user friendly. Our biggest complaint from builders and as users is that the roofs are hard to navigate at times. We wish they were easier to customize and not as glitchy, but customer service has always helped when we could not figure it out.

Home Project

Amazing overall experience and good value. The capabilities seem endless. I was very frustrated at first when trying to figure out the system, however,[SENSITIVE CONTENT] is exceptionally knowledgeable and helpful in her craft. She always responds promptly and is always so courteous and kind.

Pros

There are so many features that when implemented add another level of specificity and dimension in the design and allow the user to determine what looks appealing and what does not. The system is not easy to use and I frequently get frustrated with the process, however the support is amazing and the frequently asked questions and demos are a huge help and get the job done.

Cons

The program simply is not user friendly for a new user. Not easy to figure out on your own. Not surprising with the multitude of options that the program offers.

Great middle of the road software!

The customer service is great. It has helped me a lot to do general block rendering of things and get an idea of space. However, for detailed drawings I still have to go to other software or hire out the final drawings from someone else as these are not detailed enough.

Pros

I have really liked this software for the ease of use. It also is quick to be able to redraw something you already have.

Cons

The price is a pretty high monthly subscription. The choices of products are very limited and everything comes in odd dimensions. Also the HD feature is not great. It does not look very realistic.

Cedreo works very well, would like to see it expanded for more commercial use.

I have enjoyed using Cedreo so far. The online tutorial videos have been helpful. We utilize this program from commercial spaces and it is versatile enough to accomplish this.

Pros

The ease of drawing the 2d layout plan was the main draw to this program. It was very intuitive compared to some other programs that were trialed. A nice benefit is the 3d component library that allows our clients to really "see the space". While not the programs intended use, we find it functions well enough in the commercial area that we use it.

Cons

Not a con considering the intended use, but we would love to see this program expanded to officially support commercial office spaces. This is our only use of this program and it works but there are some features which would make the program also excel at commercial spaces. Adding in more office 3d components such as printers etc., adding the ability to copy multiple 3d items at once would make reproducing offices/cubicles way faster. I have not contacted support yet, but i cannot figure out how to add ceiling features such as a drop tile ceilings.
