Altova StyleVision vs. KeyShot

Keyshot is great for quick renders and its ability to make changes for a fast production pipeline. Since I primarily use it for concept art and making environments, it is not the best when handling larger scenes as it will take a toll on the CPU.

• Super easy to learn.
• Renderings have amazing realism.
• Ability to share license across multiple PCs.

• Keyshot is very expensive compared to other software that could potentially do the same thing at a fraction of the cost.
• Keyshot does not rely on GPU rendering so relying on a fast CPU is key.
• You are not able to modify geometry like a standard 3D software.

Honestly, I've only needed customer support a couple of times. One time was a question about licensing which their customer service explained very well and offered just the help I was looking for

The rendering capability with SOLIDWORKS PhotoWorks is pretty good but takes time to learn and is a little cumbersome compared to KeyShot. KeyShot offers a SOLIDWORKS plug-in that works great allowing the user to export models directly from SOLIDWORKS to KeyShot.

• Faster approval times from client
• Impressive website work vs editing photos
