Houdini Reviews & Product Details

What I like most about Houdini is the fact that you can really get down to the code level of developing these simulations. It's a very powerful piece of software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's a very high learning curve. I have been teaching myself this piece of software for over a week and a half now. And I feel like I'm just now starting to understand the basic functionality, but it's taking a very long time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Costructive type of workflow, easy approach from new entry and high entry user Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

viewport is quite brokwn, was never been resolved, solaris is bringing all the issue that the sop view has, laggin and crushing solari Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love Houdini as a highly technical and node-based way of viewing 3D and FX creation. The software helps me think of 3D differently with its parametric workflows and its huge gambit of tools. It makes complicated tasks in other 3D programs much more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think Houdini can have a pretty significant learning curve. I think there's lots of things that could be streamlined/warned to the user when things are set up wrong to prevent user error for learners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When it comes to 3D Animation, the one-stop solution is Houdini. I came across this beautiful bit late. But it has dramatically impacted my profile since I added it to my portfolio. Best Rendering, Easy to use and efficient when it comes to lengthy designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing to dislike about Houdini, as I've been using it for a while now. Now, it's convenient for me. The best part is that every update of Houdini solves more significant problems for every designer. So, it's user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Houdini works well with other 3D software. It has helped the team work together and make better work flow processes that they are able to follow to completion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some feature requests we have asked for and take some time to get a response. The community is also struggling with similar issues as we are and unable to assist. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of using the tool. Most of the nodes are self explanatory and is sorted very efficiently. Also, the node based interface helps in reducing issues with the project you're working on as we can easily get back to the roots to get something changed at a later time.

The cost of the tool really restricts you to work indivually with the full potential of the software. Even though we have different versons for individual users, but it still is very high. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its VFX capabilities offer a wide range of features for fluid simulation, particle systems and more. This helps in creating high-quality visual effects for films and games. Its procedural workflows helps artist to work freely Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Creating basic animation may require more steps and technical knowledge than other software. Its pricing can deter some users, especially those on a tight budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

First of all, it's free. Though it's free, it doesn't mean its anyway lesser than other softwares. It's a booming 3d software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing so far I don't like about this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The possibility of creating any type of Fx from scratch. It's mind-blowing how much the software can offer. The biggest advantage is the network system which offers an organized and multitude of combination to even go beyond your imagination. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Many combination are incorporated deep inside the nodes which can be brought to the forefront. It iwll reduce the hastle that the user goes through while creating desired output. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
