Great for viewing SketchUp files and allows seamless imports, making it a fantastic tool for architects and designers.
User-friendly interface that is easy to navigate, with features like teleportation and the ability to change the time of day for better visualization.
Saves time by allowing direct import of SketchUp models into VR, eliminating the need for complex exports and cleanups.

Outdated legacy software that may not work with all SketchUp files, especially those using custom tools or newer formats.
Transitioned from a free to a shareware model, with significant limitations unless additional paid DLC is purchased.
Occasional bugs that prevent models from loading, particularly with complex designs or newer file formats.
