RC used to be one of the fastest engines in the industry, but with their latest update, it is now crashing and producing random errors on even relatively small datasets. I wouldn’t make a point of commenting here if it weren’t for the fact CapturingReality has close to no support behind their product. We have reported these issues to them, and they have chosen to ignore them. We had every intention of purchasing an Enterprise license before the 1.1 update appeared. Now, it has quickly become the least qualified contender in the photogrammetry space. Do not trust your production workflow to this tool. You will end up wasting time and paying more then you need to.
