Comparison with other Renderers

V-Ray
Enscape
Lumion
Thea
Twinmotion

TYPE	STRENGTHS	WEAKNESSES	KNOWN FOR
CPU, GPU, Hybrid Ray Tracer	Works with all major 3D industry software & plugins Real-time viewer High quality, physically accurate Considered industry standard Built-in compositing features Frequent free updates with major new features Most online assets (models, materials) are V-Ray ready	Steeper learning curve compared to other renderers, though latest releases continuously improve ease of use	Leading renderer for all major 3D software Large user base & active community Free support Frequent updates

TYPE	STRENGTHS	WEAKNESSES	KNOWN FOR
GPU Ray Tracer	Directly integrates with SketchUp, ArchiCAD, REVIT, Rhino & Vectorworks Very easy to learn Large asset library Real-time viewport High quality lighting Amazing VR experience Frequent free updates with major new features	Requires a powerful GPU (NVIDIA RTX model graphics required for Ray Tracing & DLSS features) Limited compositing capabilities	Gaining popularity – especially among architects, interior designers and landscapers Rich library of ready-to-use assets Free support & frequent updates Great for the design phase where multiple iterations are required

TYPE	STRENGTHS	WEAKNESSES	KNOWN FOR
GPU Raster Engine	Easy to Learn Large asset library	Slow render times compared to Enscape, Twinmotion & V-Ray Requires powerful GPU Limited compositing capabilities Simple and fake looking lighting Not tightly integrated with host software, requires file reimporting/syncing after every change to your model Expensive – 3000 Euros!	Rich library of ready-to-use assets Only used in architecture

TYPE	STRENGTHS	WEAKNESSES	KNOWN FOR
CPU, GPU (Unbiased)	High quality, physically accurate Relight feature	Least amount of features out of all the render engines in this comparison You have to buy extra licenses for each software version i.e. if you want to use Thea with SketchUp & Rhino, you would need to purchase 2x licenses Limited compositing capabilities Infrequent minor updates	Not a strong competitor – lagging behind Perceived as accurate, but slow

TYPE	STRENGTHS	WEAKNESSES	KNOWN FOR
GPU Raster Engine	Real-time viewer Very easy to learn	Requires powerful GPU (NVIDIA RTX model recommended) Small asset library compared to Enscape & Lumion Basic and fake looking lighting Too simplistic for more advanced 3D users Limited compositing capabilities Infrequent minor updates	Relative newcomer – still immature in terms of features Owned by Epic Games – Creators of Unreal Engine
