What do you like best about Autodesk Arnold?

The lighting and renders are great. Also, it is faster than VRAY.

There aren't tons of settings to look after. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Autodesk Arnold?

UI and material creation. A greater material library would be nice.

I hate the node system, so a clean basic material editor would be nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Autodesk Arnold solving and how is that benefiting you?

Faster rendering and real-time rendering.

Since I follow most of the pipeline in Maya, it is great to take test renders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Autodesk Arnold solving and how is that benefiting you?

My major problem was real-time rending to see how my animation looked on the go, not on gray or clay colors. Arnold solved that problem, and in GPU rendering, I don't have to wait 10 minutes per clip Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
