FAQs
These are the problems our customers were trying to solve before they found SketchUp.
How does SketchUp compare to Revit?
SketchUp and Revit solve different problems. Revit is a full BIM (Building Information Modeling) platform designed for detailed documentation, coordination, and lifecycle management of complex building projects—often requiring significant setup, training, and specialised expertise.
SketchUp, on the other hand, is built for speed, creativity, and accessibility. It empowers designers to quickly bring ideas to life in 3D—without the overhead of complex systems—making it the preferred choice for early-stage design, client presentations, and everyday modelling.
Is there a free version of SketchUp?
Yes—SketchUp offers a free version called SketchUp Free, which runs entirely in your web browser. It’s a great starting point for individuals, students, and anyone wanting to explore 3D modelling without needing to install software or commit to a paid plan.
That said, SketchUp’s paid subscriptions unlock significantly more power and professional capability—including advanced tools, desktop applications, cloud storage, collaboration features, and access to extensions. For anyone using SketchUp in a business or professional workflow, upgrading delivers far greater flexibility, performance, and productivity.
How long does it take to learn SketchUp?
Most people can learn the basics of SketchUp in just a few hours. Its intuitive, user-friendly interface means you can start creating simple 3D models on day one—even with no prior design experience.
Becoming highly proficient depends on your goals, but typically takes days to weeks—not months. Because SketchUp is built around natural drawing and modelling behaviours, users quickly build confidence and speed. For professionals, this means less time spent learning complex software and more time designing, iterating, and delivering results.

What happens to my files if I cancel my subscription?
If you cancel your SketchUp subscription, you won’t lose your files—but your access to certain features will change. Any models you’ve created remain yours, and you can download and store them locally at any time.
However, access to premium tools, desktop applications, cloud storage, and collaboration features will be removed once your subscription ends. You may still be able to view or work with your files using SketchUp Free or other compatible tools, but functionality will be more limited compared to a paid plan.
Can I buy licences for my whole team?
Yes—you can purchase SketchUp licences for your entire team. SketchUp’s subscription plans are designed to scale, making it easy to equip multiple users with the tools they need under a single, managed account.
With team licensing, you get centralised administration, easy user management, and flexible deployment across your organisation. This makes it simple to add or remove users, control access, and ensure everyone is working with the latest tools—ideal for businesses, studios, and growing teams.
Can SketchUp open AutoCAD files?
Yes—SketchUp can import and work with AutoCAD files. It supports common CAD formats like .DWG and .DXF, making it easy to bring 2D drawings or 3D models into SketchUp and continue developing your design.
This makes SketchUp a powerful companion to AutoCAD workflows. You can quickly turn CAD plans into 3D models, add detail, explore design options, and create compelling visuals—helping you move from technical drawings to clear, client-ready presentations faster.
Why should I buy from SketchUp Australia instead of directly from Trimble?
Buying from SketchUp Australia gives you local expertise, support, and a smoother experience tailored to your needs. While Trimble is the global provider, SketchUp Australia offers region-specific guidance to help you choose the right plan, get set up quickly, and make the most of your investment.
You also benefit from dedicated local support and training. That means faster responses, help in your time zone, and access to onboarding, workshops, and resources designed for Australian users—so your team gets up to speed quicker and stays productive.
