If you can suffer the wait to get your password, and get it to work, you'll get your money's worth!
So, I liked the video, and wanted something to help me fit out my van so I paid the money (including lifetime upgrades) for 'INSTANT ACCESS!'.
I got a receipt for my money INSTANTLY! but have spent the rest of the day waiting for my login password so I can log in and use what I paid for. I've even done the 'Forgotten you pasword' link 3 times, all without any kind of response, INSTANT! or otherwise.
In answer to their reply: Better! I finally managed to get into the software. It's a real shame that the first impression is this logging in problem - all it needed was a quick reply with our login details when we paid (at the same time as the receipt) and I would not have been so upset. They did get in touch and eventually I got the login to work - it's not enough to simply copy and past the password, nor check and remove the space at the end that copies with it, you have to type the password manually and it will then work.
On to the software; the downside:
My initial impression; I've had a quick play with the older version of the software and the Browser versions and they were clearly a work in progress, with much clunkiness and disappointing operability. I would have had a lot of issues trying to get a decent van design out of it I suspect, but . . . .
On the upside:
I've been able to download their new BETA version. Being a BETA it is indeed a work in progress, but it has much to commend it. It has decent quality van models (albeit the latest vans European vans from 2016 onwards aren't available yet) and the 3D environment and controls are all useable without too much working out (being a man I haven't read the manuals or watched the instructional videos yet).
There's a good little selection of equipment 3d models, as well as simple 3D shapes like tubes, boxes that you can add and resize, as well as apply different material qualities/colours to so that you can 'create' whichever furniture shapes you need.
So, first impressions were terrible from a login/purchase point of view, however, once over this hurdle, I am pleased that I stuck with it because the BETA version looks good (certainly good for the money), and it has the legs it needs to grow and mature into a very good product.
