Enscape pros and cons
Do I need high-end 3d renders?
Many clients still don’t understand floor-plans, elevations and sections, and first thing they see and which they actually do understand is a 3d visualization. This is a very helpful tool in your hands that really can increase your sales if done properly. Presenting the project with images or videos created by someone who is not in this industry all the time could be risky in the end.
The biggest advantage of Enscape is that it is very easy to learn and is a BIM modeling software, which means that you do not have to change your design workflow once you use the software. Enscape also has plugins dedicated to interface with the most popular modeling software such as Rhinoceros 3D, Revit and SketchUp.
If you need a presentation that needs to impress your client, outsourcing is your best option. If you need to test your design, then Enscape is more suitable.
Pros:
- Fast and easy to use (depending on hardware you have)
- Broad assets library
- Price
Cons:
- Medium quality final renders
- Materials can’t be edited
- Hard to create representative model videos
You need to compare these advantages and disadvantages with your company’s mission and culture to decide whether or not Enscape works for you. If you decide not to use it, you want to know in advance which is your preferable software.
