TimberTech / AZEK Deck Designer vs Trex Deck Designer: Which Should You Use?
The verdict
Two free brand deck tools. TimberTech/AZEK offers more components (140+) and tablet support but registers you for dealer outreach; Trex is simpler and contractor-ready but limited to square/rectangle shapes. Both only price their own boards and both under-count materials.
