## Reviews

### "Impressive with Beyond Typicals" — 5.0/5

> **Peterson** | *16 May 2024* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Beyond Typicals brings an impressive visual representation, with several adjustments not available in similar software.
> 
> **Cons**: The technical engineering and architectural drawing left something to be desired, especially in relation to the limitations of the annotations.

### "Beyond Typicals, Exactly What We Need\!" — 5.0/5

> **Danella** | *11 February 2025* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I really like how Beyond Typicals is specifically designed for 3D roadway cross sections. As a graphic designer who works for a transportation engineering firm, this is exactly what we need\! Other 3D programs do not focus on this aspect specifically and require a lot more time to build something that is actually more streamlined.
> 
> **Cons**: In our experience thus far the free trial in the Cloud version and/or Mac version has limitations with rotation and angle tools. However the PC install version works great.
> 
> I have thoroughly enjoyed our free trial and anticipate returning for a full subscription review hopefully here in the near future\! \[sensitive content hidden\] has been such an excellent help as well and I greatly appreciate all that he's done answering questions and supporting our team\! Thank you \[sensitive content hidden\] for such an excellent program and customer support\!

### "Looking forward to Updates" — 4.0/5

> **Cory** | *4 February 2025* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The animation and quality of the 3d renders look great\!
> 
> **Cons**: Certain capabilities, It would be nice to have certain functions like being able to lock the camera in position. When scrolling through assets if I reach the bottom of the list the scroll function causes the 3d view to move which can be a pain if I have a picture already composed the way I want. I understand I can save a camera view, but my issue with saving camera views is, If I save a camera view and then I add more sections to my 3d render then I have to readjust it all over again because the camera view isn't correct anymore.
> 
> Overall, installing using Epic games launcher was easy, the unreal engine looks great, the capabilities are great, I look forward to more functions becoming available within BT.

### "STV's experience of Beyond Typicals" — 5.0/5

> **Dustin** | *4 October 2024* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Renderings look good. Pretty easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: Placing assets can be a little cumbersome
> 
> We recently used some renderings in a proposal and was shortlisted (selection pending). I think the graphics helped since community outreach is a major portion of the scope.

### "Great Product and Great Customer Support" — 5.0/5

> **Kevin** | *27 December 2024* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like the ease of use and time savings.  Clients have been very impressed with our animated graphics from Beyond Typicals.  I also like the ability to customize sections and camera views.
> 
> **Cons**: It is hard to modify some features/assets, it would be nice if they could be modified by clicking and dragging the mouse.  I would also like to be able to just copy and paste custom assets from other files.  It would also be nice to be able to do intersections, even if the vehicles on the intersecting streets are not animated.
> 
> Excellent\! Great customer support, Brian is always willing to help with problems and give tutorials.
