I started using Rebelle 7 Pro because it offers an unmatched, realistic emulation of natural art media (watercolor, acrylic, oil, pastel, etc.), including believable interaction with the digital paper, canvas, or painting ground. The cost of owning it is very reasonable compared to other software that offers almost the same features.
It’s built in a very intuitive way for a traditional artist like me, so a steep learning curve is basically non-existent. I love the interface and the overall user experience it provides. The software runs smoothly and rarely bugs out.
I also like that I can easily export to PSD format if I ever want to do extra adjustments using Photoshop or Affinity Photo tools. That makes it highly compatible with most major image manipulation software. The integrated timelapse feature is great as well, and I love how the recording system works—specifically, that it only records the strokes. This makes it possible for me to leave recording on without worrying that a steady frame will record nothing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's a seemless transition from AUTODESK and they have very good pricing as I do not need all the rubbish autodesk bundle with the software. The straight purchase option is perfect as I do not like subscription models at all and have changed a lot of my company stuff to other vendors because of this.

Lots of features. Most of these do in turn have a sharp learning curve, however once they are mastered it makes designing a board very streamlined. For example, when working with a schematic and creating a PCB, being able to highlight specific groups of components and then locate them on the PCB is huge timesaver and helps with board layout.

I started using Coohom recently for interior design work, and my first impression was that the interface felt a little different compared to other tools I’ve used. It took me some time to understand the layout and features properly. In the beginning, I had to explore a bit before getting comfortable with the workflow. After spending some time on it, I began to appreciate the platform more. The 3D visuals and rendering quality are quite impressive, especially for client presentations. The designs look realistic and help explain concepts clearly, which is important in interior projects. Once I understood how things are organized, the process became smoother. It definitely requires a little patience at the start, but the final output makes it worthwhile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
