SoftPlan is a better solution for Residential Designers because:
Residential Designers create a large portion of the home designs built in North America every year and represent a large portion of the SoftPlan user base. These professionals focus solely on residential design and are typically very small businesses with many being sole proprietorships.
Time and productivity are particularly important to these small firms and as a result SoftPlan is a perfect choice. In the past these firms typically created drawings either by hand or with AutoCAD®. SoftPlan represents a significant productivity upgrade over both and at a lower cost than AutoCAD®.
In addition to being a great value and fast, SoftPlan is also easy to learn and a pleasure to use as you will feel that you can finally design freely without letting the technology hold you back. See for yourself why so many designers have made the switch to SoftPlan.
