Easy to use for 3d modelling but very expensive!

Its very easy to use. Many interesting designs can be easily made pretty quickly. Its each variant is streamlined for particular function. You can do almost everything from procedural modeling, animation, texturing, lighting, rendering, polygons. It can be integrated in a work flow that can include Adobe After effects. It will never crash.

Good but a very hard learning curve

Can create brilliant assets for implementing inside motion graphics, AR in particular

While expensive, it’s the industry standard for a reason.

Maxon has evolved Cinema 4D into the leading 3D Modeling software for a reason. Not only is it capable of creating incredible 3D scenes, but the physics it’s able to recreate as well as the dynamic and photorealistic rendering (with added plugins,) it can render our… Its incredible.
