Considered Both Products	Unity Griffin Fils Director, Studio Operations Chose Unity We love utilizing unreal engines but we seem to have a better use case for the architectural visualization side of things. This has given us the ability to find better more photo-realistic assets from not only the marketplace but 3rd party sites that have a unity bases file to … Incentivized Helpful? JV Josue Vargas Applications Engineer Chose Unity I think Unreal is for those who want to develop very high-quality videogames (For consoles) Especially when attention to detail is important. However, Unity has a lot of features for those who want to develop a variety of apps for different technologies. The clear purpose and … Helpful? Verified User Employee Chose Unity Unity offer more variety and more library assets in comparison with any other game development platform out there. The price and support is what actually separate unity from others as you wouldn't get any quality with such cheap prices in any other platform. The unity platform … Helpful? Sarah Ciras Rousseau High School Special Educator Chose Unity Unity offers a professional environment, better preparing students for a career in game development. It also has a tremendous amount of documentation, allowing for a large independent study of the program and environment. It also provides for flexibility in assets, making the … Incentivized Helpful? JW Jason Weimann Developer, Instructor, etc Chose Unity I've also spent years with Unreal. And while it's a great engine, if anyone isn't sure what to use I think Unity is the right one to pick. Things will be easier and with no downsides. Incentivized Helpful? Andy Turner App Developer Chose Unity The ease of use of Corona although superior to unity does not stack up to an overall better experience. Unity asset store needs some work period the Corona asset store is brilliant. In Android Studio getting the simple projects to build is very time consuming and worthwhile. In … Helpful? Raphael Sanguinete Sócio-fundador e Produtor Executivo Chose Unity The main competitors of Unity are Unreal Engine, Cry Engine, Game Maker Studio, RPG Maker and Godot (none of those were available in the list). I've tested Unreal and Game Maker. I've chosen Unity because of these factors: It's simple to get started, the great community behind … Incentivized Helpful? Dan Talvi Teaching Assistant Chose Unity Depending on the assignment/project/client requirements, students may utilize Unity or Adobe XD. Unity works well for creating 2D and 3D video games and some UI-based software that requires multiple levels of interactivity. Adobe XD is often used by our students when using in … Incentivized Helpful? Jonah Dempcy Web & Mobile Developer Chose Unity Unreal Engine is a fantastic piece of software but it has a much steeper learning curve and an arcane, idiosyncratic way of developing software that is quite foreign. Unity uses some similar concepts to Adobe Flex, which we've always found easy and sensible. It is also easier … Incentivized Helpful? Marcelo de Vasconcellos Senior Visual Designer Chose Unity Unreal and CryEngine are both the direct competitors of Unity. Both were designed for high-end games (AAA games), while Unity was designed with the indie game designer in mind.

Likelihood to Recommend	Unity Technologies Unity is excellent for 2D and 3D games and educational experiences. It is well-suited for VR and AR development. It is also a great platform for mobile games. It is less-suited for non-game purposes (although it can certainly be used for those as well), or educational experiences. It is also less-suited for AR experiences that are highly complex, where you will probably want to write the native code in Android Studio or Xcode, as the case may be. It is theoretically less-suited for cases where performance is a huge concern as well, although, in my experience, performance has never been a problem.

Pros	Unity Technologies Unity is a multiplatform game engine. It has more than 20 options for exporting your game, ranging from desktop, mobile, console, web and, lately, VR and AR. Unity was one of the first game engines able to export games playable on internet browsers and it helped to cement the World Wide Web as a place fit for gaming. Unity has a very smooth learning curve for beginners. It is easy to start and soon you are seeing some tangible results of your efforts. The game engine has all sorts of helpers and shortcuts to facilitate some frequent tasks in game development. Another of Unity's advantage is the access to Assets Store from within the game engine, allowing the user to import instantly objects, scripts and textures from the store into their projects. Such easy access to these elements from inside a project greatly enhances speed production and is particularly helpful to beginners.

Cons	Unity Technologies To create an app, you'll need to integrate a variety of technology. Compatibility Issues arises sometimes after update Continue to develop ML learning models for AI. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Unity Technologies It's actually incredibly easy to use given the complex tasks you have. Once you learn the various windows it becomes second nature. Compared to something like Blender (which I would probably rate as a 2 on usability), the learning curve of Unity is a breeze! The only improvements I can think of would be to streamline some common workflows so you don't have to dig through menus to find them.

Support Rating	Unity Technologies I have not had to use Unity's support extensively. This is likely because there is so much documentation and so many classes available for free online. Due to this, there is little need for support. They were very responsive when I requested educational licensing. Setting it up and providing it all quickly.

Alternatives Considered	Unity Technologies We love utilizing unreal engines but we seem to have a better use case for the architectural visualization side of things.

Return on Investment	Unity Technologies Unity has a positive impact because, as of now, we don't have to pay for our license because we do not go beyond the revenue roof. We cannot say more than that because the games that we are producing in Unity are not yet launched. Incentivized Raphael Sanguinete Sócio-fundador e Produtor Executivo Read full review
