I know God is real… and Magicplan proved it

My situation I came into was a father who has owned a business for over 45years in the Scottsdale,Az area. Not only does this application give us the attention to detail needed to help give perfect on point quotes that are not only suitable and breathable for the client, but also making sure that my text and the guys on the ground doing the hard work aren’t undercut themselves. The situation I was my father like to use the pen and paper giving us not a real sense of database of where to find things and losing a lot of time on things that we could’ve been having to think about. After the I download the app. The first thing I did was going to the Accounts unpaid sector of our paperwork. I went back only three months and was able to recover 25K and unpaid insurance claims off nothing other than the free paid service. That being said, I am now a lifelong member of the magicplan team and I can’t wait to see what they have in the future. As a small business owner, all I can say is thank you all the dreams I had all the scenarios I depicted you have solved within one application at the very fair price of $89 a month for all inclusive. This is the problem with apps these days they either are all flashy no function or special their attention on one aspect knowing you will need more programs to succeed spending more and more in monthly charges. I feel like the Zuckerburge approach of give to away free died out quick.

Five Stars

I’m a professional renovator, historical preservationist, and home flipper. I am in the process of integrating MagicPlan into my workflow. I have experimented with it on past projects and it has helped me estimate materials I need by calculating accurately the square footage of areas I need to cover with a finishing product. To say that it is very easy to use would be an understatement. It excels at room scanning in particular. You can be up and running with a basic room scan in under a minute and begin adding objects to your plan from there. A whole house layout can be done in 15 minutes, and again start adding objects from that point. That is work that would take many hours and possibly multiple trips to a home previously. I look forward to continuing to evaluate this product as I move forward with my business. I will be exploring how to build-out the object library and price list database for a truly robust solution for project estimating at all stages. Thank you Magicplan.

It’s getting there!

I have been testing magicplan and am convinced it will become a great app to use down the road. It’s not there yet as it is still a bit stripped down. For instance the tile options are very limited and I was unable to change the direction. You are not able to edit the tile size. And good luck adding tile or wainscot to the walls. That is not available. Also not able to add simple objects like mirrors and shelves to partition walls, If you think you manage to it doesn’t show in 3d or elevation. You also cannot add bathroom stalls, kind of hard to design a bathroom at all. In elevation edit view not able to see and change distances between objects, only the wall and selected object. I gave up on the scan and entered everything in, maybe the last update improved that, will have to test it again. If I could scan the ceiling it may have worked better. Sharing was difficult because it did not render the plans accurately. Walls in the shared file are all over the place. Again I’ll have to retest since update. If you add a wall it doesn’t let you change the thickness of the wall only the length,,
And adding mirrors is a bizarre endeavor. You can only edit small mirrors. If you try to add a big mirror object, say 10 ft long, it becomes about two ft wide poking off the wall like a coffin.
Still has a way to go in my eyes but it is very nice to use and layout a room. I’ll keep my eye on the app and keep testing subsequent updates for usability.

Developer Response ,

Hi there, Thank you for the precise feedback! The objects you create are (for now) only visible in 2D and will not appear in 3D because there is no rendering behind that object you create. Yours are very good points though, please write me a short email at support@magicplan.app with these suggestions (also copy-paste is fine), in order for me to forward them to our product team and be able to improve the app. Hope to hear from you soon!
