As SketchUp evolves, our free software is shifting from desktop to web, where we think more people will be able to access, learn, and master 3D drawing. This week, we’re introducing SketchUp Free to the world. Our free web-based modeler delivers the core of SketchUp’s 3D modeling and saves your file…

[image] john_drivenupthewall: A large majority of schools have switched to Chomebooks or iPads and everyone else has a browser… IMHO, catering to this market makes a lot of sense… Not to mention the IT department. When I told the IT director of my school it was time to teach my class this y…

It would be great even if they put a realistic price on Make for hobbyists like myself. Say $100/yr subscription or something I could justify for non-profit-generating use. I’ve used Make for years, even building a tiny house directly from print offs of my model. I live out in the woods with an “ev…

Anssi, A DVD would not help cover $700. The customer (the one with the money) decides what toys they want to buy, not someone else (like capitalism vs. progressives-socialism). If you or anyone wants to understand why many hobbyists, are unwilling to spend the money you have spent, you need to se…

Caroline, Since you’ve asked for feedback, here’s mine: I suspect this will most hurt those who have committed to SketchUp, but have not yet made enough progress to warrant commercial use or simply the cost of potential commercial use.

I’ve been a non-professional Sketch-Up user since long before Trimble, and have liked it so much that I upgraded every year, including 2017. I do not have constant access to the web, so the new web based SketchUp Free will not work for me. But the problems with the select tool and Windows 10 make ev…

Putting the free version in the cloud and not having a continual plan for downloadable versions in the future will stop people, like me, from learning and playing with sketch-up off-line. Poor connections or metered connections (i.e. pay per MB) will make this software unusable. Additionally, I like…

Wow, what a huge dilemma for Trimble! Wasn’t Trimble was a 3D scanner company before they bought Sketchup? I feel the reason they purchased Sketchup was they didn’t want to reinvent the wheel and develop their own CAD software from the ground up. Since purchasing Sketchup haven’t they have started …
