Allows painting a whole 3D model, can add different effects, loads of library effects, ease of use. Procedural textures editing, extensive library of scanned materials which enables realistic 3D creation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Substance painter is a SaaS platform hence a subscription-based system; this makes it less usable by the artist who cannot afford it. The platform cannot handle environment texturing well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's quick to set up materials and textures to paint onto models easy interface Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
not many texture options not as related to my field of work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Smart Materials take a lot of guess work out of creating PBR accurate textures. Baking and texturing in one package is great. It's Photoshop for 3D models, and it makes the asset creation pipeline much more streamlined. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Basic tools are lacking. I wish there were more Photoshop like tools (marquee select, for instance). The baker works well, but not as well as others for the price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's simplicity. It is very easy to pick up and get familiar with especially if you have previous experience with other Adobe and 3D softwares. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
For the future, I hope they implement an easy way to import with 3D softwares like Blender. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This software is user interface friendly, and it's almost same as using Photoshop (if have experience using it). Another upside is we can render and also texture in real-time, which gives ahead compared to Photoshop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The software being easy to use and achieve the results we want, yet there's some downside to it. Such for render or in for some transparent materials. Also when Texturing human, we won't be able to get as realistic as possible,but may be close yet not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
