CGArchitect’s 2019 renderer survey

CGArchitect has released its annual poll of renderers used in production by the archviz industry, and perhaps provide an insight at where to expect they might head in the future. This year’s survey was compiled from over 8000 responses from professionals. As expected V-Ray remains the most popular engine currently used in production, with Corona continuing to nip at its heels. Perhaps more surprising is Lumion ascending the ranks to come in fourth place ahead of Unreal, although the latter was the leader in the question that asked what rendering engine users were currently testing. See the results in full on CGArchitect’s website.

“Perhaps more surprising is Lumion ascending the ranks to come in fourth place ahead of Unreal”
I’m feeling sleepy right now, but shouldn’t this be the other way round. Corona in second place despite its age is why I never understood why they sold to Chaos group. The big surprise to me here is 3dsmax interactive. I bet it would do better if it became part of the max interface.
Edit: I see my mistake now. I was looking at the 2018 results. Surprising to me,3dsmax interactive did increase in popularity for the 2019 poll.
