Adobe Illustrator is used to help make drawings look good but not make them. It is easy to add color or texture but it is hard to actually make the drawings in it. I would recommend using other software to make the lines for plans and sections and using Adobe Illustrator to make it look good.
I have been able to import an environment and create realistic lighting rather quickly by using the power of GPU rendering. Paired with its ability to create instances of geometry, it makes it easy to render a megacity environment in half the time. One issue with this is the clutter that can be made with connecting nodes.Incentivized
Vector graphics for scaling to large sizesFilling an object with a textureEasily adjusting and expanding an artboard to fit the size of the content (especially for infographics)Compatibility with other Adobe CC programs, but also exporting for PPT graphicsIncentivized
Octane uses GPU rendering so it takes advantage of the video card.It gives you a good selection of options to tweak and refine your model rendering.It can use 3D instances so it doesn't overuse computer resources.There are plugins that can be incorporated into other 3D packages for rendering.Octane is particularly inexpensive compared to other 3D render packages.You are able to copy certain sections of nodes in order to create different iterations of the same environment or model. For example, changing the lighting or camera features.Incentivized
It's tough to master. If you haven't used Adobe products like Photoshop or Illustrator before, there is a lot to take in.It would be great to have some better options to preview the final product if you're creating a multiple page document.Better integration and pricing points with Adobe Stock for the useful stock images to complete your projects.Incentivized
Its user interface could use some improvement.It is node-based so there is a slight learning curve when using it as a beginner.It doesn't import FBX files.It requires a 3D model to have UVs in order to import it into Octane.At times it may not be as stable.Incentivized
While Adobe Illustrator CC is one of the only true design software out there, it really stands heads above the other products. It's clean UI and menu structure is easy to navigate.Incentivized
Illustrator has become easier in recent years to use with more intuitive tools and controls for them. Illustration software has improved but Adobe Illustrator has kept up and keeps the edge with its extensive toolset. Newly added collaboration tools with Adobe make it even better and the expectation is that is to continue.Incentivized
I normally already know how to do whatever I'm trying out, but the documentation (as well as a simple Google search) makes any question quick to resolve. The Adobe boards themselves are a fantastic resource, especially for resolving questions between new programs and iterative releases.Incentivized
They complement each other, each with its own specific characteristics, but within a marketing sector, an experienced designer knows that the use of these tools in sets makes all the difference. It is possible to combine their uses and create really relevant materials that will bring a great return to the company and in the dissemination of arts with superior quality to the competitors
Although both have their pros and cons, Octane is far less expensive and it allows for more control over the geometry within a scene with better lighting and camera controls.Incentivized
Helps us quickly and easily create and manage numerous logosCloud libraries allow us to access commonly used colors, fonts, logos and other design elements quicklyWe are able to provide high-quality, scalable college logos for print and digital which give us a more professional, credible look.Incentivized
Octane has had a huge advantage of GPU rendering.It's relatively inexpensive compared to other rendering packages.It allows for more control over the scene compared to packages like Keyshot.Incentivized
