About

The products of Renga Software are intended for integrated design: the information model of a construction object created in the Renga system can be used in other stages of its life cycle. At the first stage of design, the project architect needs a tool to create a quick and easy conceptual prototype of a future building. The Renga BIM system is based on two general principles: designing in 3D space (for enhanced visualization) and using an intuitive, context-based interface (for simplicity of interaction with the 3D model. An architect can create a building in the 3D view, using object tools like walls, beams, windows, etc. You can also switch to the 2D drawing plan at any moment and continue the creation of 3D modeling in that view. A lot of specialists have already appreciated this approach and have found the Renga software operating speed to be a great deal higher compared to other software.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • The price is very competitive, as a 2D Cad program it does all you could want.
  • Low price and compatibility with CAD files.
  • Works for CAD, has some AutoCAD like features and can type commands from AutoCAD shortcuts so easy to use if had AutoCAD background.

Cons

  • Once it starts to crash, it gets worse and worse, trying to get help from 3DS is (or was,I’m my case) a complete & utter waste of time. Never even had the decency to reply, wether they could help or not. You have to assume NOT as they didn’t reply. Awful experience!
  • The application crashes all the time and you lose unsaved work, plus the time to restart the application. Horrible technical support.
  • No SUPPORT for paid version other than support groups. As free version, support was typical. When changed to pay only version - there is basically not support.
