It may not always be sufficient to just compare Act IntelliCAD and Blender with each other. Even though useful features, pricing and user experience are all important and should be considered when making a final choice, you should also take a look at the recognition and awards claimed by each service. Frequently a less dominant software may turn out to be an excellent choice that was distinguished with SaaS awards such as our Exceptional Customer Support Award which shows that in spite of lesser market presence it’s a worthy rival to the products that dominate the market.
