Very mediocre March 1, 2008
James Frick (Traverse CIty, Michigan USA)
Very mediocre. I was unable to do significant topographic elevation changes - had to buy a different program and trash this one. Very simple tasks it handled. I admit I got frustrated and gave up - it might do what I needed it to, but I gave up trying.
 Don't even bother February 19, 2008
One tough cookie (Baltimore, MD)
As soon as I tried to load this software, my security software popped up with a message that the program contained adware that could collect browsing history and send it out to a remote server. Maybe that's why the price was so low. ($19.95 from the publisher) I'll look for something else.
 Worth the money October 9, 2007
Melody (North Carolina, USA)
Suprisingly good for such low-cost software. Great graphics. Don't purchase if you don't have a DVD drive/player on your computer, it will not work in regular CD drives. Pretty easy to use with a little practice, but was disappointed we could not get it to incorporate a large berm at the back of our property. Program would only allow creating a free-form slope from side to side, not front to back. Also, major feature that I would like is ability to "copy and paste" plants or objects. Takes a lot of time to select and insert the right species/size/color and is a REAL PAIN if you have mass plantings like we do and have to do it over and over.
 Outstanding value February 17, 2007

Keep in mind this software costs less than $20. That said, I am very satisfied. One of my favorite features is the shadow caster. Once I had my house and fences in place this feature proved very helpful in determining how much sunlight each garden area will get at different times of the year. If you are looking for easy to use software to design gardens and landscape without spending much money, I highly recommend this product. I run XP and keep it current in regards to updates and had no problems installing and running the software. It worked equally well on XP 64-bit that I have on a second machine.
Bad decision February 16, 2007

It didn't install correctly. I finally installed it peacemeal. I couldn't get an acceptable design out of it. Total waste of money.
