As someone as myself that works with motion graphics, having a powerful software like C4D is a must. It does not fall behind the "big dogs" of the 3D world. And the integration it has with After Effects is amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Render times sometimes can take way too long, even if you have a powerful machine Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

How real your work looks in this software. It truly is amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It tales awhile to learn this software, but its definitely worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The program is very user friendly and has a lot of possibilities within the realm of Motion Graphics. Along with the Cineware feature with After Effects makes it a kick ass asset to have in video motion and visual effects production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Maybe enhancing a bit more the sculpting features within the program and enhance the UV mapping process because it mostly do the basics. Content creation for video games tends to be rather difficult to do with Cinema 4D. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its very straightforward. It has some very simple tools for you to create amazing renders. Also you have A LOT of control on how materials interact with lights and shadows. I've never been looking for a realistic outcome, so the default tools that C4D has are already more than enough, however, you can also expand your limits with render engines such as octane or indigo to create more realistic renders.

Its Mograph module is a time-saver! Very often I find myself in need of creating multiple objects, and the fact that I can create and edit multiple objects really makes my job very easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The render process is slightly confusing because there's more than one way to export your file, whether it's a complex animation or just an image. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great integration with the Adobe Creative Suite, perfect use with Unity, amazing for basic and advanced modeling Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Would like a GPU rendering based option and increased UV mapping support Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The non-destructive workflow. Having the ability to keep objects parametric is vital for what we do. It makes versioning quick and painless. Having access to edit values to alter the look of things is what makes C4D so powerful. The integration and workflow between AE has also been simplified and added to since I started using C4D and it looks like it's just getting better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn't much to dislike about C4D, but if I had to target one thing I would have to say the UV system needs a lot of work. It's possible to do the things you need to do with the current setup, but it has a clunky workflow and is missing some much needed tools to make editing the UVs easier.

The ease of access to tools, training, and plugins, matched with the user-friendly UI, makes this my software of choice. For users trying to begin a career in 3D design, one of the biggest barriers to entry can be frustration, but with Cinema 4D, its user interface is so intuitive that a person can get started and create even the most rudimentary of shapes with moderate success. Online training and help are readily available with easy-to-follow tutorials and techniques. Maxon is very helpful as well, as they hold multiple events around the county that users can meet up at, and engage with other users, trainers, and celebrities of the 3D world.

More advanced features like xpresso can feel daunting to learn. Other things are minor, but reconciling settings from one machine to another can be annoying. Having a user profile, like that of Adobe, would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CINEMA 4D is a very powerful and user friendly 3D Software to be used for modeling, rendering and animation. Its strength, though relies in being the most popular software for motion graphics, thanks to MoGraph and a long list of plug-ins and a very tight integration with After Effects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CINEMA 4D is one of the best 3D software around but not the best choice for animation compared to Maya, for example, who has more tools and a more fluid interface for designed for animators. Also, its use in the film industry is limited compared again to Maya, widely more popular. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cinema 4D is one of the best and most intuitive 3D modeling and motion graphics software. A robust and mature 3D design and animation software that evolved since the first production. I spent several weeks immersing myself in the software, in conjunction I subscribed to Maxon’s online Cineversity; followed Maxon’s Twitter feed; and watched lots of free Cinema 4D YouTube videos.

In fact, it is a very complete software, maybe it would improve its library of plugins or available plugins of Maxon. Generally, I have found that C4D can handle larger scenes, certainly in the viewport. HOWEVER, when comparing C4D's cloners to Modo's replicators: In this instance, Modo can handle a MUCH higher number of replications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that the texturing tools are fairly easy to use and the quality of renderings is pretty good. I also like that you can lock camera views and certain elements so you don't move them by mistake. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This program's snap tool is a joke. If I draw 2 objects and need their edges to be touching, the snap tool goes to random points and is never helpful or accurate. I have to zoom in as far as I can and try to manually move the objects to align. Of course it's never exactly precise and is very frustrating. Another annoying thing is that it will not tell you the overall size of grouped or multiple objects. the tape measure tool is hard to use (the snapping goes to random points) and it's frustrating for precise projects and objects.
