Live Interior 3D Professional v2 by BeLight
Waste of money

Lacks many models and effects. One has to borrow from Google to design anything close to what you may want. Difficult to apply multiple effects to a wall. After designing the entire house, I found it very difficult to navigate through rooms and apply effects. I should have kept to Google Sketch and saved 140 or just had my husband render the house in 3D max. I can't imagine how an interior designer would be happy with this software.

This software is a great tool to present ideas and designs to prospective clients. The native library of objects is respectable, but do get available supplements. The fact that this software communicates so well with the "google warehouse" is a major plus, giving access to thousands of designer furniture pieces, and all sorts of other objects.
The color and finish library is adequate to convey the idea of most materials, although scale is sometimes off. The reflectivity of finishes gives the rendering a really "expensive" look, which adds to the wow factor when presenting to the client. The lighting renderings are also very good.
I did find that the designing of kitchens in particular was a bit time consuming, due to having to resize everything, and I still have not figured out how to make vaulted rooms, if that's at all possible...
Overall, I am very satisfied with the software, and my clients were impressed! I secured my first ever condo remodel using Live, which I learnt to use in only days!
For the price, it's an exceptional value. I would recommend it!

Sky is the limit with this program. I am a working Interior designer and thus far I have secured two jobs amounting at 100k with this program. The secret?! Shapes. You could designs almost any thing with the shapes. The existing library has sufficient objects . But if you don';t find what you want you construct from shapes they give you. I hope they would come up with update ( I would even pay for) of more objects. The out come is very realistic. all in all A+
