5.0

Anil: Hi, I am Anil. I am an editor for Creative Alliance. We are a design company and we have eight employees here with us and I give Unreal Engine five out of five rating. So before Unreal Engine, we use Blender and Cinema 4D, and those softwares had some limitations. Those were mainly for designing the models, but for the actual animations, we opted for Unreal Engine because it is much more simpler and you don't need any coding knowledge to use Unreal Engine. So we shifted towards Unreal Engine. So we basically chose Unreal Engine because it is much more simpler, the UX is much more simpler and it shows the real time physics of the animations that we're doing. While simulating, it shows the real time physics and it is much more easier to navigate through the screen as well. And there are no complexities, no codings, no nothing. So we chose Unreal Engine because it's much more simpler and easier to implement in our organization as well. Initially it was a little harder because we were not familiar with the design of the software and it consume a lot of resources as well. So initially it was not a good experience, but it's been more than two years we've been using it. So now it's easier and it is easier to incorporate for anyone. And I can train anyone in my company easily. To the new users out there, I recommend this software highly because even if you don't know anything, there are lots of documentation provided by Unreal Engine and you can get into the software very easily and you can produce high quality 3D animations and 3D images that no other softwares can provide as per our experience. So I highly recommend this software to anyone out there.
