A little bit of shop talk here, but I’m excited to share news of this new kitchen design software and technology that I am using.
I’m excited to debut and share my new kitchen software with you. It’s called AutoKitchen and it’s truly state of the art! The AutoKitchen representative, knowing that I am a working designer, offered to provide me with a copy of AutoKitchen software to review and to use in my practice, gratis. I already was using design software, but having recently upgraded my software and being disappointed in the quality of the renderings at the highest level of detail, I thought it a good time to take a look at AutoKitchen.
As with any product I review (in 3 years, this is the 3rd) it has to meet my own personal standards as a useful product with qualities that I feel have merit. Otherwise, I decline to review the product, which I have done once after using a particular product.
In this case, the graphics (crazy photo realism) were noticeably better than my existing program. I didn’t “need” a new program. I was not looking for another program. I had just recently upgraded my existing program for a nice sum of $$. But, when I looked at this program in more detail, particularly in comparison to what I was using, another program designed for the kitchen/bath industry, I was very much “wowed” by the super sharp graphics that AutoKitchen produces. This program IS state of the art! It’s a significant enhancement to my business, an upgrade for my clients who will see their kitchen in better detail, and so, I’m extremely happy to share this program with those who appreciate beautifully designed graphics.
As I become more proficient with AutoKitchen, I’ll be sharing the very cool drawings that it produces. If you are a designer and looking to make a change, I encourage you to take a look at AutoKitchen. If my existing program had been comparable, I would have had no need to a) learn a new program b) learn a new program c) learn a new program, all of which is extremely time consuming and quite honestly, always slow going at first and then can take more time to get fully up to speed, which designers understand.
Having used my program (with regular updates) for 18 years, I did not make this change lightly; the software had to produce compelling solutions for my business. Had that not been the case, after my careful analysis over the course of two months, there would be no post about AutoKitchen on this blog. Customer service is superb, otherwise, that would surely be a dealbreaker. CAD compatability is a big plus too. There is no question in my mind that the time invested is, and will be, worth it. I’m happy to share my perspective on this program.
