It may not always be enough to just compare Autodesk 3ds Max and Blender against each other. While specific features, pricing and customer experience are all important and should be considered when making a final choice, you should also check out the recognition and awards won by each app. In many cases a less known app may turn out to be an amazing choice that was distinguished with B2B awards such as our Experts’ Choice Award which shows that regardless of limited market presence it’s a significant rival to the services that rule the market.
