[Log in to unlock pricing and user insights](/login) DC David C. Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 7/20/2018 "An impressive software, but it requires extensive knowledge to be useful." 2.5/5 What do you like best about MotionBuilder? Compatibility of the software with the Microsoft Kinect device through a plug-in. In the hands of experts, exceptional results are achieved. Models so realistic that sometimes it is difficult to distinguish them from real images. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about MotionBuilder? Very complex to use. High hardware requirements. It is very possible that the equipment you have may not be able to run this application properly, especially regarding the graphics card. Little compatibility with other software. It is very costly to successfully complete a project with this application. Unless you work in a company specialized in 3D design and animation, you will need to hire external personnel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering MotionBuilder: Ensure to have the appropriate staff and equipment before embarking on a project that uses this application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is MotionBuilder solving and how is that benefiting you? I used it specifically in a project where you intended to develop 3D models for medical staff to use during their training, communication with the patient, and assistance tasks.
