"Believable, Physically Accurate Renders with a Powerful Material Editor"

5/5

What do you like best about V-Ray?

V-Ray is part of my regular workflow for visualizing products. The material editor produces deep results and the lighting tools feel very physical. When I set up a scene properly the renders look believable. I also appreciate the community. Whenever I get stuck there is usually a forum post or tutorial that helps me figure it out.

What do you dislike about V-Ray?

The learning curve is steep and I still feel like I'm learning new things after years of use. For quick jobs it can still feel like an overkill. Sometimes I just want a fast clean render and instead I end up fiddling with sampling settings. My old workstation struggled with bigger scenes so I had to upgrade. It's an investment both in time and money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is V-Ray solving and how is that benefiting you?

It solves the problem of showing clients something real before the product exists. At BlackBerry we work on hardware that takes time to prototype so being able to render accurate visuals early is quite a huge leap for us. I can test different lighting setups and material options without building anything. That saves time and reduces the number of revisions. It also helps clients feel more confident about what they are approving. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
