Infogram vs. KeyShot

Infogram is great for making infographic-based presentations, leaving behind that look of the old PowerPoint graphics. It is also very good to create posters, maps, and other graphic communication pieces, particularly when there is a need for high-density information in a compact and attractive format. It could also be very useful for promoting ideas at social media, due to the same reasons. In short, it is a powerful tool for communication.

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.

• Intuitive, friendly interface that is actually fun to work with and makes data visualization less intimidating. Easy for non-technical people to master
• A wide variety of visualizations, charts, and graphic elements that continues to grow
• Great compatibility. Easy to integrate with webpages, social media marketing, etc. and mobile-friendly
• Saves a lot of time. You can have a professional-looking infographic or chart pretty quickly that is ready to share or embed.

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

• As with other web-based apps, you need a reliable internet connection.
• Sometimes you really wish to have more control over some graphics, to make finer tweaking.
• The price for the pro version (the lower tier above free) is currently at 19 USD/month when billed annually, which can be a bit much if you don't need to use Infogram regularly.

• 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.

I have personally always had quick, friendly, and helpful responses from the Infogram team.

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

Infogram had the best balance between the quality and variety of graphics you can produce vs being easy to use.

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.

• Has a free user option and it is faster and easier to build great graphical graphs.
• Now I don’t have to ask design guys to make me a fancier graph for a presentation.
• After the first graphs are made I can reuse them for the next month's presentation.
