## Reviews

### "Make your model design realistic." — 4.0/5

> **Deni** | *18 October 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The user interface is comfortable and easy to use, has a media library that can be easily accessed to speed up my work.
> 
> **Cons**: Unfriendly prices and software versions that change too quickly make it difficult for me to deal with old files.
> 
> Good, especially when dealing with landscaping or building model information. Lots of easy steps to follow to get the results I want.

### "the best tool to model quickly and efficiently" — 5.0/5

> **Juan Pablo** | *6 July 2022* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: the interface and the ease of applying textures and setting of the models
> 
> **Cons**: very expensive for companies that are starting
> 
> I really like how quickly one can model and set projects

-----

### "Easy quick renderings." — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *29 December 2018* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This is a great tool for creating immersive renderings and animations quickly. The libraries of entourage objects are great making it very easy to populate your model. Intuitive and quick material library.
> 
> **Cons**: There is a limited degree of control over the rendering properties and the output is a bit cartoony.

### "Lumion: More than Satisfactory\!\!" — 4.0/5

> **Bishnu** | *5 January 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of visualization. Whenever the file is uploaded to Lumion we can immediately see how it would shape. That makes the job way easier. It's like playing the video game, it's so easy to get used to with commands.
> 
> **Cons**: It takes a lot of storage in PC. For a normal user with least PC space, Lumion can be problematic which requires strong graphics as well. It could be costly.
> 
> Experience with Lumion is more than satisfactory. I can easily get the render view as per the requirement whether its exterior or interior. Also, video creation for me is so much fun and effective in Lumion. Just easy to go with software\!

### "Easiest and most complete rendering engine and 3D real time visualization software" — 5.0/5

> **Favio** | *26 December 2022* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I keep getting amazed by how easy it is to render images on Lumion. You just import the model that you made in an external 3d modeling software and once inside Lumion, the magic starts by picking materials and inserting furniture, plants, select sky, etc. There is a wide variety of 3d models for furniture, people, plants, etc. The best part is that you can do all this in real time, as you move you see it rendered.
> 
> **Cons**: You will need a powerful computer to get the best results. But it is expected, not a surprise. Everything else is perfect.
> 
> We used this software daily for our presentations with customers and they got amazed as well, because if they needed to change something, we just did it in the meeting and they saw the new image immediately on Lumion.
