Toronto, Ontario, Canada
What it is
DynaScape Creator is a browser-based CAD application for landscape professionals, including users without CAD expertise. It provides landscape figures, plant libraries, sketching, measurement and dimension tools, labels and layer standards for planting plans and other designs. Raster images and site surveys can be imported, while finished designs can be exported as PDFs for sharing or printing. Plant and material labels let Creator count and export quantities. Cloud file integration stores work and supports access from different locations. A Color add-on adds color, texture and shading options. The application supports web, Windows and macOS. The annual plan is displayed at $101.17 per month with a $1,214 total annual charge; the monthly plan is $119.00 per month. Both list unlimited designs, cloud connectivity and Mac and Windows compatibility. There is no free plan, but a 14-day trial is available. Subscribers can contact support by phone or email on weekdays during stated Eastern Time hours.
