Drop & Render Reviews 7

Been using this render farm for a couple of years now and I love it! I can directly submit my project from Blender and it just works. Whenever something goes wrong, their support team quickly resolves.

The best cloud render farm ever!

I can't stress this enough, I have used DropandRender for many years, everyday I make a new daily render and always use their services.

The amount of time they save me is in the thousands of hours! Let alone they are always improving their software and staying up to date with 3d software.

Also when I make mistakes, their support team is very fast at responding and helping me out, very kind and professional.

They are the best of the best when it comes to cloud rendering, trust me, give them a try, you wont regret it!!!

I had a very frustrating experience using the Drop & Render plugin with Cinema 4D. After installing and attempting to use it, my C4D setup became unstable and ultimately unusable. I was forced to completely reinstall Cinema 4D, which cost me significant time and disrupted my workflow.

Unfortunately, this issue caused me to miss a project deadline, which had real consequences for my work. I can’t say for certain what caused the problem, but the timing strongly correlated with installing the plugin.

Given this experience, I would be very cautious and make sure to back up your system before trying it.

Drop & Render is one of the only render farms I've found that natively supports Houdini's PDG system. Unlike other farms you don't even need to restructure your graphs to do it, it will just make your project work automatically.

The farm is a massive time saver in terms of render times, and not having to fiddle around with your projects for an hour before submission cuts those times even lower.

I've been working with drop & random for the past 2.5 years or so and they are great. I've helped to bring their houdini plugin to the farm and have extensively helped testing it. They have been super open to feedback and keen on making the tool great. I've been using it for a lot of client projects and it's working great. They also your credits back on failed renders so that is fantastic if something doesn't go as planned because of an issue, you can just run it again
Highly recommend

I have been using Drop & Render for over 7 years now as my go-to render farm for Cinema 4D. Their support has always been excellent and has helped me out a lot, especially a few times under heavy deadlines.

Our whole team uses it, and the integrated Cinema 4D plugin is super easy to use. We started with Octane and have since switched to Redshift. They always have every version ready, and it automatically matches your local setup perfectly.

One small thing: for very large downloads, it sometimes takes a moment to receive all the files. It’s not slow, but when you’re under time pressure, every minute counts.
