Maya

Benefits:

It is the most complete 3D design program ever created, the possibilities of 3D mesh and solids editing is almost infinite, the module to generate movement is great for the great variety of effects and simulations to generate realistic movements.

Drawbacks:

One of its negative characteristics is undoubtedly the price, it is very expensive to acquire the program, in addition the learning process of the modules and tools can be quite complex. especially for beginners.

In sum:

I used it in an interactive logo project of a web page.

Benefits:

The main selling point of Maya, at this point, is its status as an industry standard. Working in Maya allows for ease of transfer between organizations as most make use of it.

Drawbacks:

Autodesk fails to provide a modeling suite centered on speed and is slow to adopt advances made by other leading modeling suites, such as rounded edge shaders for normal baking.

In sum:

Maya's has a lot of good, but its slow, primarily mouse-based modeling technique provides no advantages to hotkey modeling (unlike, for example, Houdini, which makes up for its slower initial creation speed with unparalleled speed of modification through procedural techniques). Modo and Blender are at the cutting edge of software for modeling, but maya has advantages in Animation.

Benefits:

Maya is a good start for modeling and texturing, etc, and it is easy to model quickly

Drawbacks:

It is very buggy, and it crashes often; the autosave feature is a joke

Benefits:

It's the tried and true go-to software for all things animation. You can do from box modelling, to rigging, to animation and then shading/rendering. It's a complete package and a pretty complete tool.

Drawbacks:

The subscription plans are too expensive. Not much to do if you're just setting up a studio. I don't think the program does enough to offer an advantage other than it's the industry standard, which is why it's losing ground to others like Blender rather quickly.

In sum:

It's a good software that performs pretty well. It has it's kinks and there's certainly a learning curve, but I feel like everything is reasonably placed and if you give it enough time you can figure most of things on your own. Crashes can be frequent but the autosave features/crash saves are pretty good at preventing work loss.

Benefits:

Interface is very easy to use and new users can easily grasp the menus and panels

Drawbacks:

Al surface shader 2019 is not inbuilt with the 2019 nd 2020 that gives more control over shaders

In sum:

Its very easy to use. As per out industry requirements maya fulfill all the requirements

Benefits:

I have been using it for a short time and although maybe I have not taken all the advantage it should be a useful tool to create 3D animations

Drawbacks:

It is a somewhat complicated program to use, it is not an act for beginners, some of its tools are difficult to understand

In sum:

Some of its features have not excited me much because of the difficulty of using it, but I have colleagues who love it, so it's worth trying it

Benefits:

The render quality on videos made with Maya is amazing. It has enough features, options and presets to help you create great pieces faster. Once you learn how to use it, you'll probably will be able to use any other 3D designing software.

Drawbacks:

This is not an app for starters. You need to know some theory as well as gain some practice first. Also, the price is quite expensive. Even more if you want to keep updated to the latest version!

Benefits:

It has a lot of really good functionalities, but it can't do everything that blender can. on the other hand, blender is a harder that maya to learn in a lot of parts. i would generally advise to start out with one of the two and just stick with it

Drawbacks:

it costs quite a bit given that there are really good free alternatives out there. the node editor feels quite weird

Benefits:

3d models and vfx video editing just fun to use

Drawbacks:

To much space is been needed and dot think I dislike it

In sum:

Maya is fun maid growing and projects

Benefits:

I understand that "Maya" is one of the most used softwares for 3D designs and animations, I have used it and it has seemed quite more complex than other products for what I needed it, but it is important to say that at a professional level it is the most prestigious software

Drawbacks:

What I did not like is precisely its complexity, I think the tools could be easier to use. I understand the logic of the program and the number of functions, but that undermines the ease of use. Some options I didn't even understand

In sum:

I used it mainly for character design and some animations. The final rendering quality and the modeling capacity are the functions that most impressed me.
