    OTOY
    I have been able to import an environment and create realistic lighting rather quickly by using the power of GPU rendering. Paired with its ability to create instances of geometry, it makes it easy to render a megacity environment in half the time. One issue with this is the clutter that can be made with connecting nodes.

    VistaCreate (ex- Crello)
    VistaCreate is well suited for creating engaging content for users of all age groups. There are beautiful, modern templates and a variety of shapes and animations to choose from. Most importantly, the cost is inexpensive, and you get that bang for your buck. An attractive feature is the ability to upload music, or choose from the library, to add to your content piece. It's quite clever, as this allows the reader to engage in more than one sense e.g., animated content versus static text. The reader hears music, and the content is animated and visually appealing. This allows keywords to be highlighted. The probability of communicating your message in this manner is increased.

    Pros
    OTOY
    • Octane uses GPU rendering so it takes advantage of the video card.
    • It gives you a good selection of options to tweak and refine your model rendering.
    • It can use 3D instances so it doesn't overuse computer resources.
    • There are plugins that can be incorporated into other 3D packages for rendering.
    • Octane is particularly inexpensive compared to other 3D render packages.
    • You are able to copy certain sections of nodes in order to create different iterations of the same environment or model. For example, changing the lighting or camera features.

    Cons
    OTOY
    • Its user interface could use some improvement.
    • It is node-based so there is a slight learning curve when using it as a beginner.
    • It doesn't import FBX files.
    • It requires a 3D model to have UVs in order to import it into Octane.
    • At times it may not be as stable.

    Alternatives Considered
    OTOY
    Although both have their pros and cons, Octane is far less expensive and it allows for more control over the geometry within a scene with better lighting and camera controls.

    In my view, VistaCreate is easier to navigate and design content. The templates are fun and appealing. The availability of Shutterstock photos is endless. The version history is saved so that work is not lost. There is a brand feature that automatically selects color themes to support branding. It is easy to export content to your desired file type.
