User Testimonials
	Autodesk Maya	ZeroLight Spotlight Suite
Likelihood to Recommend	Autodesk Autodesk Maya is a great software, it has so many tools that you can create a full movie without even jumping to any other software. Although it's pretty hard to learn but there is nothing more fun, once you get a hang of it. In general, its tools are best for modeling and animation.

Pros	Autodesk Easy to build workflow due to strong customizability. Industry share. Easy to collaborate with other companies. Strong cooperation with other software. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	ZeroLight No answers on this topic
Cons	Autodesk Right now Maya has no good viewport like Blender 2.8 has. It is good that Maya 2019 devs focused on performance and stability but it's strange to see that mainstream soft aren't on trend in developing really cool and helpful tools. Maya LT is very good for artist who don't need complex FX tools. So the devs must add python API to Maya LT. Add more helpful tools to modeling section especially for retopology.

Usability	Autodesk As Autodesk Maya was one of the first softwares I learned, so I feel very fun to work with it. The overall usabilty feels very natural to me and I felt it's easy to learn but tough to master kind of software. Some people find it very difficult to learn, so I deduced some rating points.

Alternatives Considered	Autodesk We were evaluating the products within the Adobe portfolio like Adobe Animate, Adobe PhotoShop, Adobe After Effects majorly among few others before finalising on the Autodesk Maya. One of the major reasons for that was earlier experience with the Autodesk Maya tool for the engineer and also it has more to offer than Adobe with multiple products.
