Impact of Sketchup 3D for future

SketchUp is a great demanding software for all modellers. Recently, Google sold their SketchUp tools to the Trimble because of SketchUp 3D modelling is non-core business. Sketchup is a software for architecture and it is free to download  that helps to create 3D modelling design and models. 

There is not such kind of mention by Google what is the actual reason to sell the product to Trimble inspite of SketchUp blog is mentioned they are looking forward, SketchUp is very important tool for all designers and all are get the benefit from SketchUp.Trimble comments is like as a partner with Google they developing sketchup 3D warehouse.

There is many questions in this particular matter and everything is not clear. I think there is mysrety on this incident. Inspite of all of this Trimble definietly make a huge market with SketchUp and invest money into it and expand their business all over the world.

Lastly Trimble and Google will mentain close relationship about this matter and SketchUp will continue to make a great position in the heart of all designers.
