SketchUp Viewer Customer Insights

1. Add to that, the usability of the Viewer is great, even on the relatively small screen on my mobile phone.The app is freezing at the signing in step, an internet browser opened but nothing happen.

2. I cannot believe such good software is free to use.Trimble have been doing their best to absolutely Destroy the SketchUp experience.

3. I've been using SketchUp for many years now, and as free software goes its outstanding.

4. I use it to model small parts and projects, and for a glorious but brief time, I was able to show people my plans instead of waving my arms around the air at objects that are only in my head.

5. from removing their free computer based version to limiting their online version to a file size of 100mb.

6. I updated the app and it is now a completely different app that does not work! Requires sign-in and internet connection to use.

7. I hope I never have to use it again.I have to use Sketchup 2016 because it's the last free full install they made available.

8. No thanks.I've been using SketchUp Pro for many years, mainly to do detailed drawings of our house and use these everytime we have a new building project.

9. The app itself seems well made and responsive.Can't use the app to see Sketchup files I have saved to the cloud from laptop so the app is useless.

10. I haven't even had the chance to use it because it just takes over, eliminating all of my other open tabs and practically forcing me to restart my computer in order to get back to work.

11. Paying customers trusted you when they installed your latest version and you robbed them of a product that they paid for.
