Vuforia Engine vs. Vuforia Studio

Definetely when needing an image target based AR experience, I'd go with Vuforia Engine, the implementation is pretty straightforward (at least when using UNITY SDK), it is well documented and there are plenty of examples to start with. I wouldn't recommend it yet for tracking objects or environments if it is for commercial purposes, because it tends to fail from time to time from my experience.

Vuforia is free but there is a watermark on the output of it. So if you want to remove it then you have to purchase it. It's easy to use and some features like multiple targeting in images and object and surface tracking help you to achieve what you want.

• Object tracking
• Surface tracking
• Camera supports

• Performance when using unity (the device heats up).
• Image marker works fine but surface detection tends to fail still.
• Even though there's a free plan, there are many alternatives now where they cost less or they're even free.

• Sometimes take time to load render object
• Sometimes, it took more time to recognize an object in the dark
• Slow support for new features

Vuforia studio is well suited in cases like you wants to track objects and surface in the plane. Image recognization at multiple targets is one of the very good functionalities of EasyAR. And if you want to render 3d objects in your mobile application then it's well suited. It is free too so you can create applications at minimal costs.

• Easy to use so we achieve deadline on time
• Its free to use so we created app on low cost
