Is archicad easy to use

Answer 1

No, it is difficult to use the program to its full potential. It may be fairly easy to throw together a simple building model, but it takes many weeks, months, even years to fully master the program. I have been using Archicad for over 5 years and am still learning new ways of doing things. It is also full of bugs and limitations. For example, there is no free form 3d modeller, like autocad or microstation. I find you need to be always discovering 'work-arounds' for simple tasks. I have been using cad programs for 20 years, and i would rank Archicad as one of the most difficult programs to use. Easiest and fastest would be Microstation, then Autocad.
