Switching from Simplygon to InstaLOD?
You're not alone.

InstaLOD has become an essential part of our toolset. Its ability to rapidly and cleanly reduce high-resolution CAD models to a manageable level has saved our team hours of work when developing engineering visualization projects in support of human space exploration.

InstaLOD is one of those tools that I want to use for any future project as it allows teams to focus on creativity while maintaining the highest performance standards.

InstaLOD’s algorithms are well suited for our work with CAD data. Whether for high quality products visualizations, or low poly models for realtime applications that meet the quality standards, it saves us a lot of time.

Looking back at the project, the team at SEGA stated that the development of Sonic Frontiers benefited massively from automating their 3D data optimization process with InstaLOD. Artists could finally dedicate their time to improving the quality of the game instead of wasting it on non-creative, manual labor

Optimizing the customer delivered CAD data sets with InstaLOD significantly reduces the workload for data preparation. The resulting mesh structure is not only produced faster but also the structure is better than using low tessellation settings in VRED. In some cases, having optimized data for realtime visualization is only possible with InstaLOD as we often do not have access to the original NURBS data for re-tesselation.

I chose InstaLOD over Simplygon and Pixyz primarily because of the outstanding, personal support. From a product perspective, InstaLOD Studio offers the best overall package: competitive pricing, incredibly useful features like Scene Rules, and a well-designed, intuitive UI.
