After completing your order, you will receive a personal download link for the purchased software via email. Additionally, every customer receives an account on our website where your license key and the download link to the latest version of our program are stored. The download link is valid for exactly 1 year from the date of purchase, and you can download the software as often as you like during that period.
The license has no time limitations, so you can use the software indefinitely after purchase. Only the free updates and download access are limited to 1 year, but these can be extended upon request.
With Plan7Architect, you can easily import existing floor plans and third-party objects. You can even scan hand-drawn floor plans and trace over them.
Of course, completed projects can also be forwarded to architects for further editing. The file formats are compatible with professional architectural software.
Every license you purchase is valid for three devices. This means you can activate it a maximum of three times and work on three computers simultaneously.
As a customer, you receive your own account on our website. In this account, your personal download link to the latest version of our software is available for one year. With every new update, we will inform you via newsletter, so that you can log in to your account and download the newest version free of charge.
With the purchase of a Plan7Architect license, no additional or recurring costs apply. The price is one-time, and the license can be used indefinitely.
We don’t want to force any of our customers into a subscription they might forget to cancel and then get frustrated about the ongoing costs. Most of our customers buy the software once for a renovation, remodel, or home addition and never need it again — so there’s no reason to lock them into a subscription.
We believe in fair and transparent pricing: you pay once, and you own the software for life.
Plan7Architect is currently a Windows-based application, and there is no native Mac or web-based version available at this time.
However, many Mac or iPad users successfully run the software on their devices using virtualization tools. The most popular option is Parallels Desktop, which allows you to install Windows on your Mac or iPad and use Plan7Architect seamlessly — just like on a Windows PC.
But you don’t have to pay for Parallels. Free alternatives like UTM, VMware Fusion (Free for Personal Use), VirtualBox, or compatibility layers like Wine/WineBottler can also be used to run Plan7Architect on macOS.
Important: If you’re using a Mac or iPad with an M1, M2, M3, or M4 (Apple Silicon) chip, Parallels and UTM are the most compatible options. We personally run Plan7Architect on the latest MacBooks with M4 chip — and it works smoothly.
Yes, Plan7Architect is fully compatible with Windows 10 and Windows 11.
No, you don’t require a new license. We have step-by-step instructions in our customer area that show you how to deactivate a license on one PC and then reactivate it on a new PC. This way, you can take your software license with you wherever you go.
Since we offer a 14-day right of withdrawal for all our customers, we do not provide a free trial version. You can cancel your software purchase without giving any reasons and receive a full refund. Simply send us a short email to process your cancellation.
