Fairly intuitive and easy to use. Easy to generate suitable renders with nice lighting and reasonable realism. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Enscape 3D?

When I received a survey for Chaos a few years ago and saw that the whole survey was about the Chaos logo, I knew we were all in trouble -- Enscape had been taken over by a giant corporation that was going to expend 90% of its resources on marketing (telling everybody how wonderful the product is), while expending very little on ACTUALLY making it a good product. My suspicions have been confirmed by Enscape software crashes -- in my experience, Enscape is becoming less stable.

What I REALLY want to warn potential users of Chaos products is this: watch your credit card! Chaos' policy is to automatically renew your subscription without warning, and if you complain, they will tell you that you must provide THREE MONTH'S notice that you do not wish to renew. If at all possible, protect yourself financially by providing Chaos with a one-time-use credit card number. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We’d like to clarify that Chaos does not have a three-month cancellation policy—our subscription terms are more flexible, and we’re happy to review your specific case to ensure everything is handled correctly.

"Intuitive and Perfect for Teaching, But with Limited License"
5/5
What do you like best about Enscape 3D?

I think Enscape 3D is an excellent rendering tool because its use is quite easy and intuitive. The utility and material libraries are very practical, and its material editor is also something I really enjoy. Additionally, I appreciate that it is easier to use and requires fewer resources on the PC. The initial setup was very easy, which is also a great benefit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Enscape 3D?

The student license, the free version is for a very short time and the paid student version is inaccessible to most students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Render Quality for Clear Final Product Visualization"
5/5
What do you like best about Enscape 3D?

The render quality is great. It really helps to get a clear idea of what the final product will look like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Enscape 3D?

I’m unable to use it on a workstation that has more than one version of ArchiCAD installed. For instance, if I have ArchiCAD 25, 27 and 29 installed, Enscape only works on ArchiCAC 29. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Real-Time Rendering for Interior Design"
5/5
What do you like best about Enscape 3D?

I like how easy Enscape 3D is to navigate and how quickly I can change materials and render videos and 3D shots. It's really convenient in meetings to switch between models and scenes instantly and to change materials for every asset to find the best output. This feature helps my clients visualize the scene effectively. Setting up Enscape 3D was very easy, and I guess that’s why my team switched from using other products like Corona and V-Ray. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Enscape 3D?

I dislike how the lighting in the mirrors is rendered visibly as assets, which should be fixed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from dijana boshkova of Enscape 3D

Hi Ahmed, thank you for the review! We’re glad to hear that Enscape makes it easy to test materials quickly and create animations that help clients visualize spaces and design options more clearly.

We also appreciate your feedback around lighting quality and reflections. Input like this helps guide ongoing improvements. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience!

"Unmatched Rendering Speed"
5/5
What do you like best about Enscape 3D?

I love the rendering speed of Enscape 3D, which has significantly improved compared to the software I used previously, V-Ray. This increased speed allows me to complete my 3D design projects without slowdowns, improving my work efficiency. Additionally, the rendering quality is exceptional, offering a level of detail and realism that enhances my projects. I consider these two aspects fundamental in my daily work, greatly contributing to achieving better results in shorter times. The integration with SketchUp makes Enscape 3D even more functional, improving my overall workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Enscape 3D?

The reflections seen in mirrors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from dijana boshkova of Enscape 3D

Hi Iacob, thank you for the review! We’re glad to hear that Enscape’s real-time rendering speed and visual quality are helping you work more efficiently.

"Practicality of Live Rendering, but High Cost"
4/5
What do you like best about Enscape 3D?

I use Enscape 3D to design scenes for audiovisual content, such as cinema and advertising. What I like the most is the ease of the live rendering interface, which makes rendering easy for scene approval. Additionally, I chose Enscape 3D for its real-time rendering practicality and found the initial setup easy and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Enscape 3D?

The lighting of Enscape 3D alone can be quite limited. Furthermore, the high price of Enscape is a factor that prevents me from using it in conjunction with other tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Martina Heinzle of Enscape 3D

Hey Fernanda, thank you for the review!

We’re glad to hear that you are experiencing the easy set up and live rendering interface of Enscape designing scenes for audiovisual content, such as cinema and advertising. We also appreciate your feedback of the lighting limitations and pricing level.

Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience!

"Quick Visualization, Seamless Live Sync"
5/5
What do you like best about Enscape 3D?

I like how Enscape 3D offers quick visualization and material study, which helps in the design process. It's quick and easy to use. I also enjoy the live sync feature as it helps with iterating the building design and observing materiality and shadow. The initial setup was easy as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Enscape 3D?

I think Enscape 3D could be more stable, especially when using live sync with Rhino. Isolating and editing blocks sometimes crashes Enscape. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Cassandra Trillhose of Enscape 3D

Thank you for your positive feedback on the quick visualization and live sync features of Enscape. We understand your concerns about stability with isolating blocks within Rhino, and will investigate further. Your input is valuable to us and we are glad that the initial setup and onboarding was a smooth and easy experience for you!
