    1 out of 5 stars I wish I had read the reviews first   January 2, 2007

    I have used for a few days. And here are the issues I have encountered:
    - every so often - this software causes my machine to hang - it starts using 100% of the CPU and returns control to me after anywhere from 1min to 4min.
    - if you add light fixtures - it assumes you have a gable roof. I had put a flat roof and the light fixtures show up above the wall.
    - It loses changes periodically. Although nothing has crashed and I save my changes regularly.
    - After many hours - I completed the floor plan and then when I try to add appliances, or change the floor type - it complains "One of the walls is invalid" and doesnt allow me to add appliances or change the floor.

    I am amazed there is no "product recall" of this piece of junk.

    I wish I had read the reviews before. I bought it not on Amazon but another store.



    1 out of 5 stars Crashes my computer   July 22, 2006

    I have a very nice computer (3.2 intell, 1000mb ram, NVida 6600gt, XP Pro) that has been running great lately, including video games like Doom 3. I have yet to have a crash since my last reinstall 6 months ago. This program locks my computer up after only using it for 30 minutes. It won't swith between the different views. Stay away from this product or any other this company makes. Its a waste of time & money. I'm so mad it made me write my first review!


    1 out of 5 stars can you do ZERO stars? STAY AWAY   April 7, 2006

    The software and the company are LAME. On the phone with supervisor Greg of tech support I was told they didn't have to return my money because "our lawyers wrote the return policy" and that they'd had "four of you guys" today that called to request refunds for the same product. Took SEVEN DAYS to return my call, offered NO apology for the unstable program they'd sold and the problems I had experienced, insisted it was MY DESIGN that made the program continually crash, and insisted I reinstall it and add patches to fix their problems, and they'd STILL not refund my money.
    I bought it at Target for 20 dollars and the "Individual Software" supervisor actually said on the phone: "You get what you pay for, it was only $20, what did you think it was going to do? Make a set of plans for you?" They know NOTHING about keeping customers happy and are CLUELESS. The program is limited and unstable. Fortunatley Target flexed on their return policy when they heard the horror stories, and I plan on making sure all consumer web sites are aware of these bozos!

    I totally agree with the other reviews here and everywhere else on google. The tech support guy said they were all written by their competitors! I wish I'd read this before I'd bought it, but THANK GOODNESS FOR TARGET being cool to hook me up with an open box refund.

    What a piece of junk (I haven't found any that I like actually)
    But STAY AWAY from this one!!!!!

    PLEASE...save yourself the headache! Read version7 reviews and decide for yourself if you really have the time to deal with such a program or company.

    I've sent Individual all the links about their customers' experience. I don't think it will do any good but I think they should know the percentage of people writing negative reviews on their products.

    My next site to "update" will be Cnet and Consumer Reports (if they have a section for something like this).

    Avoid this program at all costs. I will update you all if they EVER reply to my e-mail. However, I will not hold my breath.

    I have not tried this version of Total 3D, but v7 got the same response from everybody who tried it: worthless. Before you take a chance on v8, read the reviews for Total 3D Home and Landscape v7 and check up on Individual Software at the Better Business Bureau's web site. Also realize that my experience with their technical support/customer service involved them telling me the problems with the program were a result of uneducated customers--you'd laugh hearing this if you experienced first-hand the problems with the program and saw the manual and help files that accompany v7. With so many unhappy customers, it's amazing IS hasn't been run out of business.
