Blender Reviews & Product Details

Community. It is something outside the tool itself but that adds incredible value to the final product. Because how great the community is, it's really easy to find someone who will tell you exactly how you need to use the tool to create something specific, 3D modeling, animation, poly-art, unity compability, whatever you can imagine, it's out there. Having said that, the tool has quite a few utilities to improve productivity. The tools available for the manipulation of vertices and edges are infinite, and to that we add the possibility of adding addons that bring new ways of doing it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the best it has is also its biggest challenge, given the amount of utilities available to it, it becomes difficult for a newbie to start creating things with Blender, and achieve the results that they expect in a short development time. It is simply impossible. You have to spend time with the tool learning the shortcuts (which are infinite) and spend time watching community tutorials to get used to which utilities to use for which problems. I do not see a clear way to solve this, it is a tool that covers an immense spectrum of solutions within 3d modeling and animation, it is not that you are using a small tool that only concerns you to make voxel art, you are using an all-round high powered swiss knife, so expect to be overwhelmed with tools that you may never use as they are not the type of solution you need Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of navigation , Customization Features, Faster rendering, Live rendering, Camera based view to make you feel how will the animation look like, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Image based Animation becomes difficult to perform, For me personally i tried to get an image hand created and perform animation but it kept getting difficult to animate the image. Blender can provide some sample projects along with where in user can use that project modify the same to get better understanding and clarity so that going forward it can be a learning as well as hands on experience to attract. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a really small size and is very fast to work which makes it my first choice. Further, it has really good developers that teach on youtube that makes it very easy for me to learn and use the blender. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a bit complicated considering I just entered this domain and it's been only about 1 year since I started. Changing between modes is a bit difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Free and open source to start with and a delight to work with. I was a Maya and 3DMax user for many years and they were a lot better than Blender, but since 2017 that started to change big time, right now Blender is faster, more extensible, and more complete than any other option. Many big studios are still stuck with Maya but most of the Animators I know would prefer to switch to Blender. Our team made the switch since 2019 and we don't plan to go back anytime soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A few years ago I would say that was too immature to be a commercial-grade project, but wow that really changed. Now it's more complete and easier to learn and use than the commercial and expensive alternatives. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like the most about blender is that it is a tool with many options, which other expensive tools have, for example 3dmax, here you can do almost the same thing, modeling, sculpting, animating in a single program with multiple tutorials on the internet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What annoys me that some commands are difficult to understand and even more so when they are complex things and require, step by step, a continuous execution of buttons.

I also do not like file incompatibilities between other programs having to resort to generic objects to be able to migrate from one program to another Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the automatic learning index managing with blender software, because its open source configuration allows to set up data download demonstration activations, 3D dimensional graphics presentations, visual effects management, print development change ratio guarding of digital character models, Fluid experience programming for rich text formations with information projection settings, automation of modular sculpture tools, orientation of video game schemes, screen resolution standards, combined interface customization possibilities, are part of the management methods of this virtual content arrangement application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

An evident error in blender corresponds to the power of auto-saving of its operations, where an indisposition of storage of algorithmic changes occurs, due to a failure in the supply of encryptions of content in the software of data base of this server, in which loss of transfer of details of use of graphics is caused, disproportions of internal adjustments, decrease of compatibility of graphic cards' backup, deterioration of presentations' operation simulation, are of the erroneous operations managed by this program when carrying out support managements of computerized activities development of artificial intelligence manufacturing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We can create an exclusive 3d model and we can create scenes of the video and we can do animation to that video.

It is an open-source. We can design the material of the object. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is hard to use. We want some tutorials for learning this software. Difficult to use all the tools. The interface is difficult to develop the model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blender is one of the most effective 3D softwares available out there. Obviously, the best thing I like about Blender is that is free. Also, there is a quite large community of users where you can tap in to get tutorials and useful help to advance your skills. Blender is a powerful 3D software that is very competitive to others 3D softwares out there that cost thousands of USD.It is a solid choice to create beautifully rendered images, Animations, VFX and more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest drawback about Blender is the User Interface, especially if you are accustomed to other softwares. There are some shortcuts that will make transitions more smooth. Still, after using another 3D software for years (an industry standard) I still find Blender a bit cumbersome to work around things that are more smoothly accomplished with other tools. Another minus for Blender is that there are only a few studios that use it, and that's mainly to save money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the effectiveness and customization. The user has a variety of effects that the add to there piece. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They need a little tutorial before you use that show the basics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Free, versatile, complete pipeline, big support group.very well at doing a small part of a job or a complete project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some time I just don't agree with a solution or work around. Maybe due to the amount of plugins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Modelling is so easy.

Render engine has so much improvements now that you can make things look so real.

2.8 version is well optimised for speeds and heavy loads.

With the new Gizmo, you can even use it on touch screen devices like tabs. Wow.

It is so easy to use and also there are so many helpfile and videos on Youtube that its exhausting yet awesome. The output can be done in realtime now and we can see the changes or final output with out rendering most of the times. Now you can make 2D movies on blender and it is very well thought software which is easy to adapt to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I feel the downside is that they are very helpful and have made it very easy to use it. With very less efforts and not having to go through the painful process. they actually stole that pain and gave us this amazing product to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blender is leading the vanguard of innovative traditional animation production! This goes for both the developers and the community. Hats off everyone -- what a great creative technology for hand drawn animation, storyboarding, and previz!

Blender allows you to do traditional 2D hand drawn animation or storyboards over 3D props and assets. This is a very unique feature, and it's only getting more robust and fun. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As trivial as it may sound, the default hotkeys seem odd to me (for navigation and basic modeling). I also use Modo, Rhino, and a bit of C4D, and Blender's default hotkeys seem strange, but that's just my bias clearly, which I am working on (or just remapping them) :D Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it's basically of very less size, and other softwares are just too big to download. It's sculpting functions are just amazing, the texture paint , the weight paint, the vertex paint are simply wow! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

while sculpting it crashes frequently. It dosen't has some features which are only in other 3d modeling softwares. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Flexibility in sculpture

Secure your previous data once it turns off automatically Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Working with the mouse is extremely inconvenient especially in an exceedingly 2D drawing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Modeling, sculpting, animating i like them all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing to dislike in it. It is perfect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it's sculpting part is amazing. within secounds we can make anything we ever saw on television in the animated movies, and we can animate as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

it crashes frequently while sculpting and using different brushes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blender is a free yet powerful 3D creation tool. Beyond modeling and texturing, it also integrates texture painting, sculpting, and post-processing rendering. The improved Eevee render engine provides beautiful yet convenient real-time rendering results. The Grease Pencil is the killer for 2D-style 3D animation creation. It keeps lightweight even is such giant multi-functional inside. Blender 2.8.x is a huge step forward for its impressive significant UI update. I can feel the ambition for them as a foundation but willing to take other commercial giants down. Unlike other tools in similar usages, it shows the dimension of meshes in human-readable units, i.e., cm, inch. That's important in creating content for AR/VR/MR since the item will present in real-world size scene. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The coordinate system in Blender aligns the z-axis to upward and is different from majority 3D creation tools and game engines, where they align The y-axis to upward. Although Blender gives some features to fix the coordination in its exporting menu, it causes problems in some scenarios. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blender is a super accesible, free and complete 3D software that allows you to learn 3D and also produce 3D projects as a professional in the industry.

It can be used for any 3D project, from modelling, animating or rendering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing bad with Blender, is more limited than other similar softwares as Maya or Cinema, but again is FREE. So you can´t beat that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Free to use, to change, to love. Have a Great community, easy to learn if you have the time and the commitment! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is hard because in time blender turns out a great tool for my pipeline, but better integration with VR, I have an Oculus rift and want to use them for validation prototyping before prototyping of industrial production, in the new version Vr is starting to show but i need some more features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At first glance it doesn't seem like Blender 3D is anything special in the world of 3D applications, but it's not.

Blender 3D amazing serious and complex 3D creations suite.

What can be done in 3D Blender and what are its outstanding and versatile capabilities.

There are no boundaries, everything is a universe inside it and you can do just anything, simply no limit in creations.

Blender 3D is one of the best modeling and advanced sculpting tools.

Everything you need with animation, rigging and simulation.

Probably best compositing and motion tracking, also video editing and 2D.

Finally Blender is a public project, free to use for any purpose forever and open source.

With Blender human ingenuity and heaven alone is the limit, if it has. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Is too artistic and design maybe placed with a specially processed plug-in to obtain the dimension and the engineering such CAD applications have.

It's quite unusual and difficult to master and embrace the way it works, so because of its complexity, it takes a long time to get used to and embrace working in it. The latest versions go to improve all this so that the intuitive and logical interface is getting better and better Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Blender is in the range of Maya (as professional 3D software)

Difference is that is it easier to use, and it comes at 0 cost!

The people creating Blender are updating it all the time, and the new version is just amazing!

It is a public project (everyone can join and help), but you can still donate if you'd like to help the people who made it

You can create pretty much everything on Blender! Just watch youtube videos, or an online course, and you are set Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing considering the product, however sometimes I have issues placing the light in the 3D dimension, but this is all me :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
