Disappointing We have enrolled for their free trial for experience the product. We created some workflows but we realised that it is not fit for purpose. UX and UI are behind of the industry (personal opinion). Hence, we did not pay for the subscription. When we want to get a screenshot of what we have created so far, they said we need to get a subscription. Based on the GDPR they need to provide user generated data in their platform, however they are breaching the data protection law for generating revenue. Furthermore, when we want to get monthly subscription (apparently they dont provide), they wanted us to pay yearly fee to access to a single ill-designed workflow. We did not even want to get the workflow itself, just the data we have in the platform (in written). Disappointing experience

Rather slimy business model This company charged me for a renewal without notifying me that it was coming up. (They claimed they sent an email 30 days before, but I never saw it and it wasn't in my spam or junk mail folders.) I did get a refund from them, so that part at least went well. However, after your license expires, they won't allow you to login and use your existing work. So in effect they are holding your prior work hostage until you pay them to renew.

The software keeps crashing I'm an Interior Designer and I have used SmartDraw for many years to draw layouts. It seems that it has gone worse over the years as it keeps crashing way too often and it doesn't even keep your previous versions of work. I just lost about 3 hours of work when it crashed AGAIN, even though I had saved all the time. It says I have a "damaged" file, but I can't open it. In my experience there's very little support for users.

“Monthly Plan” Only letting you do a yearly plan for $120 instead of a monthly or just letting you buy your design for $10 is a ripoff and absurd. Absolutely joke. Literally told them I’m just going to remake my design elsewhere because I’m not going to reward this company for deceptive policy.

Rip Off Software with hidden fees Very average software which you are sneakily subscribed up to when you pay for a year. Then when you try to cancel to stop paying they say you only had 30 days. Even cancelling your credit card doesnt stop them charging as AMEX allow an old card to be used for ongoing payments!
