It's easy to use, it has enough options for my projects, is fast in rendering (even with complex scenes). I like that you have great tutorials about Blender which are very helpful when learning this software or using some plugins of blender such as Substance painter etc. The price could be lower because there isn't much customization at free version. If you're looking just learn how render your scene without spending lots of time doing it manually then go ahead! For now i'm still newbie but after few weeks working here i will try more advanced features of blender such as light baking and skinning. And also look into photogrammetry tools cause they allow us creating meshes from 3D scans.
