  • It is very expensive while we compare it to similar software.

  • For our use, there are no cons, we are able to do what ww need plus lots more. If you get stuck on any aspect of the software, there are plenty of help forums and how to videos available online
  • You have to pair the type of object (mesh, nurbs, polygon, etc) with the right tool or else it won’t work at all.
