For the fourth year in a row, Vectorworks software products have received “BEST of SHOW” awards from Architosh during the AIA Convention. The leading online magazine dedicated to CAD and 3D software professionals and students worldwide, Architosh presents “BEST of SHOW” honors to the top design technologies making waves in the architectural industry. Vectorworks Designer 2015 won in this year’s Desktop category and Vectorworks Nomad 3.0 was one of three winners in the Mobile category.

As a complete BIM modeling tool, Vectorworks Designer 2015 “packs a big punch in the area of visualization and rendering options. And Vectorworks 2015 gave an official ‘thumbs up’ for 4K displays, something its peers have not yet done,” said Anthony Frausto-Robledo, AIA, LEED AP, the editor-in-chief of Architosh.com.

With a perfect score at the product review level, Vectorworks Designer 2015 took first place in the Desktop category because of its industry-leading landscape architecture tools, new site modeling capabilities, and its competitive pricing model. No matter where you are in your workflow, Vectorworks Designer gives users the freedom to create from within a single platform – and that’s a remarkable tool.

In contrast to the Desktop awards, the Mobile category recognizes innovative software solutions that make designing on mobile devices easy and useful to your workflow, employing their strengths as lightweight, cloud-connected hardware.
