Overall Satisfaction with Blender

We use Blender in our marketing agency to create product launch images, 3D animations for the beginnings of Youtube and Tiktok videos, as well as for the creation of any other product images our clients may need. Occasionally we also use it for the creation of 3D logos and logo animations to present to clients.

Pros

  • Relatively user-friendly interface given the complexity of what it is capable of
  • Excellent physics engine which makes it easy to create "realistic" animations and images
  • Wide array of importable and exportable file formats, make it easy to work within client specifications and with the files that clients provide
  • Rigging is fairly easy
  • Very cost-effective, being free.

Cons

  • Interface, though user-friendly, can be quite intimidating when just starting out
  • Extremely hardware intensive, requiring a lot of GPU and CPU power.
  • The wide library of texture, lighting, etc. plugins
  • The ability to easily swap between rendering engines, especially when needing to provide quick turnaround for minor client changes
  • The huge community surrounding Blender and the wide array of tutorials and support
  • Great ROI because the program is free
  • Clients have been impressed at the speed with which we are able to make changes to models
