## Reviews

### "Creative Alliance Review" — 5.0/5

> **Anil** | *14 August 2024* | Design | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: With the availability of so many tools to use to sculpt the models, Zbrush is one of the best. We are able to take the high quality model to unreal engine which is a huge plus for us.
> 
> **Cons**: You have to have a pretty high-end PC for running it smoothly and the cost is a little bit on the higher side.
> 
> It is one of the best softwares out there for 3d modelling and sculpting. The detailing is top notch and the wide set of tools is awesome to use and precisely upto our requirements.

### "Zbrush Review" — 5.0/5

> **Kay** | *18 February 2026* | Computer Games | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The many features and tools for sculpting, haven't switched to blender because the scuplting tools just feel so much better
> 
> **Cons**: The UI, you have to go through so many menus just to find some things. If you don't have a custom layout then it is really hard to find things that you use all the time.
> 
> Overall, when it was owned by Pixologic, I loved it. They had frequent updates and seemed to really care about what the users wanted. They had a perpetual version. Now that it is owned by Maxon they don't seem to care about the user as much.

### "The best 3d modeling software" — 5.0/5

> **MICHELLE** | *21 October 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Zbrush is unlike any other 3d modeling software. It's the industry standard for video game design, 3d printing and 3d modeling and animation.
> 
> **Cons**: Zbrush really isn't beginner friendly. I had to take paid classes to learn how to use this. I wouldn't recommend this for beginners.
> 
> I've used Zbrush for years for 3d modeling custom models. It's much more detailed than blender but much easier and customized than autocad software.

### "Great Bit of Kit\!" — 5.0/5

> **Jessica** | *30 June 2025* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love all the features of Zbrush, it is super intricate and helps me make great work\! Even though it is intricate, there are SO many tutorials from the application itself to teach you anything you need - I especially love the custom user-interface, super accessible and helpful.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing really, it's a big learning curve but once you understand how it all works it is an amazing bit of kit\!
> 
> I have had a great experience with this software and will continue to use it for many years to come - I love it\!
