I started using Plan7Architect last year on multi-family housing projects. What surprised me most was how quickly I was able to set up both the structural plans and presentation views. Switching betwe... See more

im not a pro
im not a pro, i just like to tinker. i drew my shed, then the garden, then even my neighbor’s house lol. it’s just fun to see it in 3d. never thought i’d spend so many evenings on a cad program but here i am.
Best home design software I ever tried
Best home design software I ever tried. Easy, fast, and my kids even enjoy looking at the 3D models.
I like the program alot
i like the program alot, but i made some mistakes in the beginning bcuz i didnt understand the roof tools. after some tries it worked fine tho. now i can plan our extension in detail and its super helpful.

I mainly use it to compare different versions of our dream home. Sometimes I make one plan with a big kitchen, another with an extra bedroom, and then I just switch back and forth. The 3D import is awesome – I keep adding furniture and plants I find online, there seems to be no limit. It’s like playing The Sims but for real life haha.
good value 4 money
good value 4 money. planned our basement reno in a weekend. wife approved :)
Easy to learn
Easy to learn, much easier than SketchUp for me. Does the job.

We are retired and just wanted to remodel our small bungalow. We are not very technical people but with some patience we managed to draw our house. The 3D walk-through was amazing, it felt like seeing the finished project before it even started. At our age, having such clarity before calling a builder gives us peace of mind.

I bought Plan7 Pro because I wanted to design a small addition for my parents’ house. At first I was nervous because I’ve never used CAD software before, but the tutorials helped a lot. After two evenings I had a pretty detailed model and could even walk through it in 3D. My parents were amazed to see their old home with the new extension on the screen. It gave them confidence in the project before we even hired a builder.

We’re contractors and use Plan7 to show layouts to clients before we start. The 3D walkthrough makes a huge difference, people get excited and sign faster.

bought this app cause sketchup was too hard for me. this one is way easier to get started, i had my living room in 3d the same day.
I didn’t expect much but wow… Plan7 Pro…
I didn’t expect much but wow… Plan7 Pro is actually really good. I planned our whole house extension in a weekend. My wife even started adding her own ideas, super fun.
Very impressed
I am an architect myself and bought Plan7 architect Pro mostly out of curiosity, to test it. I didn't expect much but was very impressed. I used it for both small and larger projects just to see how it performs. Honestly, if more clients would send me DWG files exported from this program, it would save me hours in AutoCAD. Very good value for the price.
Love how easy it is
As a woman I like to test out many different versions before we decide on something final :) With Plan7 architect I can switch designs around so fast. The 3D import is crazy, there are endless options to decorate and try new things. I've built like 5 versions of our dream home already and I'm still not done haha.
Made design work feel personal
I bought this software just for one project – to rebuild my parents' old house from my childhood. Then I exported it to Twinmotion and made a little animation for their 40th anniversary. When I showed it to them, they were both in tears. They said it was the best gift ever. I never thought software like this could make such emotional memories possible.
Disappointing
I bought this software hoping it would be far better than free alternatives out there but was sadly disappointed.
I found the software to be extremely clunky and not at all intuitive to use.
The bank of objects available have entirely unrealistic measurements, like baths that are 2.7m long by 1.7m wide!
Rotating objects, like a kitchen sink, in 2d by a simple 180 degrees (to get the tap on the correct side) is impossible, with or without snap settings, because either way the software would snap to about 150 degrees or 210 degrees, leaving the sink at a 30 degree angle to the wall!
Despite setting default measurements to metric, there was no way to show 2D plans in metric, without clicking on each measurement separately.
I'll be applying for my 14 day refund. I wonder how straightforward that will be.

Easier Than I Expected
I got Plan7architect Pro to help me plan a renovation in our home. Honestly I thought it would be really hard to learn but it was easier than expected. After a couple evenings playing around I already had a full plan. My wife also loves it – she started changing the kitchen layout herself and we both spend evenings looking at different ideas in 3D. It made our planning much less stressful.
Not for layman
I have been trying to use this software for weeks. I even took it to my brother, he is a draftsman and uses CAD all the time. I can't even figure out how to set dimensions on a wall. The tutorial video's move so fast you can't follow them. I wish I never bought this it is so frustrating.

Reliable Tool
I manage design work for a building company that handles steel structures, barns, and modern family homes. Plan7Architect has proven reliable for all of these. We especially appreciate how foundations, roofs, and technical installations can be integrated into one workflow. The ability to present realistic 3D views to clients, while also producing precise 2D drawings for the build team, makes our process far more efficient.
Highly recommended
Easy to learn, but powerful enough for serious building projects. Highly recommended
