## Reviews

### "Give SmartDraw a try--you won't be disappointed" — 5.0/5

> **Danny** | *16 March 2026* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the ability to transfer files from the old version and convert them to this cloudbased program. It's very simple and convenient. Also, I love having the ability to create new diagrams quickly and efficiently for the many events we host. If you've never used smartdraw then I believe the learning curve will be extremely easy, whether you're creating charts or diagrams; you will be able to easily see your creation and changes immediately. The new ability to store your items in the cloud makes retrieval from virtually anywhere possible while keeping everything safe and secure. SmartDraw's customer service has always been fast and professional.
> 
> **Cons**: I would have to say trying to scale back the amount of detail you want to include because SmartDraw gives you ability to add many many items\!
> 
> My experience from the beginning has always been great. I would be extremely positive in recommending this product to anyone.

### "Nice to Try Horrible to Own" — 3.0/5

> **Wiiliam** | *9 September 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ease of use, templates, learning was a breeze, simple program with basic features.  I recommend this if you are a beginner and want to do a free 7 day trial or are looking for a basic program with basic features to get to your desired design.  I would not buy this as it's a annual trap.
> 
> **Cons**: The plans offered are horrible.  No monthly plans for those of us who want to periodically want to create personal designs.  It's either all or nothing with them.  Even with the $10.99 monthly subscription, this has to billed annually which is a headache.  They have lost so many customers over not offering a month to month subscription with a $15 subscription fee.
> 
> Overall I like smartdraw as a program but the customer service, lack of customer retention and acting like they are robots, not actually helping or answering you, just like they are reading from a scripted book.  Have over 500+ customers ready to sign up at $15 a month, and they still refuse to budge.

### "Floor Plans" — 5.0/5

> **Erica** | *23 February 2026* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: very easy to navigate and create a detailed floor plan. the program is easy to use and follow. great for our needs
> 
> **Cons**: that its not savable to everyone's account - it would be helpful if it saved all floor plans to all accounts under a license
> 
> it was a great experience, i recommend this program for people who need to make layouts and floor plans

### "Positive Smart Draw Review" — 5.0/5

> **NANCY LEE-ANN** | *11 March 2026* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Pretty Easy to figure out without support, but support was there when I needed it. I am still learning the program and am surprised how AI can answer most of my questions.
> 
> **Cons**: Since I am mainly interested in floor plans and furniture arranging, and exterior home drawings and landscapting  I wish there were more choices in your catalogue. Exterior siding would be very helpful. I also found navigating between the lbrary and selections a bit of a pain, wish what I use the most would stay in my selections.
> 
> Overall I am very, very happy with the program. My family are thrilled I can produce drawings for new floor plans and addtions to their homes.

### "Great Tool for Layout Designs" — 5.0/5

> **Kevin** | *12 March 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This product was perfect for laying out a basement remodel project I am considering. Easy to learn and wonderful to convey ideas to family and contractors alike.
> 
> **Cons**: I had some difficulty resizing certain elements once they were drawn if I had made a previous mistake. Having used it now, I could be more intentional about some of the associations between lines and what should be locked vs. free floating.
> 
> I came across SmartDraw while looking for a tool to layout a potential basement finishing project. I needed something to get my ideas cleanly onto paper and assess feasibility of different design options. This fit the bill perfectly. Being a longtime CAD user, the learning curve was basically non-existent and I was able to get the footprint and utilities laid out in no time. From there I utilized multiple sheets within one project to try out all sorts of different layouts in a matter of a few hours. I loved the built-in design library where I could pull in common mechanical and structural elements, as well as furniture. This is going to make things so much easier when we get to the phase of sharing plans with a contractor. Would definitely recommend this tool for home remodeling projects\!
