Version 20 also includes enhancements to the free PRO Landscape Companion tablet app for iPad and Android tablets including the ability to not only design right on the tablet, but also to create an instant price quote.
The enhanced PRO Landscape Companion also allows a user to access the entire 12,000+ image library from a cloud-based server giving access to any object they would want to include in a design.
Other features include:
Photo Imaging: A design, sales and communication tool that provides customers with a photo realistic presentation of the proposed project.
Companion mobile app: PRO Landscape includes a free mobile app for your iPad or Android tablet that allows the designer to create, present and quote designs right out in the field. You can also transfer designs between the tablet and desktop/laptop version of PRO Landscape, giving you the option of when and where you want to design.
CAD: PRO Landscape creates 2D site plans that represent the installation of plantings, sprinkler systems, hardscapes and more.
Customer proposals: PRO Landscape generates an accurate bid for the client directly from either a photo imaging or CAD design. This eliminates errors and duplicated efforts. You can produce not only the quote itself, but a complete proposal that includes a cover sheet, quotation, materials list, plant detail information and much more.
3D rendering: Create 3D renderings from any design project. Convert a photo image to 3D and show your customers the proposed landscape project from any angle. The user can also instantly transform any 2D CAD drawing to 3D with a single click.
Night and holiday lighting: PRO Landscape also includes night and holiday lighting design capabilities. The lighting features allow the designer to place landscape or holiday lights and automatically illuminate the design.
