"Excellent tool "
5/5
What do you like best about Substance Designer?

I like that you can take items and change the texture and image in one spot. Learning how to make textures from scratch is a phenomenal tool when you may not be best at photo manipulation, but can learn procedural textures quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Substance Designer?

There's not much documentation about the more technical features but that's all i really like the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing piece of software"
5/5
What do you like best about Substance Designer?

Fast, responsive, made specifically for game development, fits perfectly into the game dev pipeline. Replaces several more expensive tools. Support is very responsive and they quickly address the issues brought up by the users.

Very easy to use, but the tool is also incredibly deep.

The user interface is a great example for others to follow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Substance Designer?

If you want to dive very, very deep into the tool you'll see there's not much documentation about the more technical features, but that hasn't stopped me at all. If you're savvy and like to tinker around, you'll be just fine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Substance Makes Texturing A Breeze"
5/5
What do you like best about Substance Designer?

Substance makes real time texture editing a breeze. It's a great program that has simplicity in mind and makes it a great program for everyone from beginners to professionals in the industry. Learning how to make textures from scratch is a phenomenal tool when you may not be best at photo manipulation, but can learn procedural textures quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Substance Designer?

I would like to see some consolidation in the interface, it's a great program but unless you are working with 2+ screens the interface and different menu's that are key to success can sometimes hinder your view/work size. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
