Great tool if all ya need is fast previews

The ability to quickly render images with very little user input, even in complex scenarios such as volumetric lights or subsurface scattering effects. It's not perfect but it gets me 99% there for my needs without having to spend days writing custom code (or paying someone else). I would like more control over some aspects (e.g., ray tracing options) especially when working on large projects/scenes. Also, sometimes you get an error message saying something along those lines "KRay failed" which

Pros

  • Easily accessible
  • Great community support through discord.
  • Easy setup process if using Unity5+

Kray - Great program with many uses

The ability to use it as an engine for rendering, which means you can use the same settings as a game such as shadowing and reflections, and even render scenes faster using GPU! Also the lighting tools are very useful. I dislike that the software lacks some major features found in other programs like Maya or 3ds Max, but this may be just my lack of knowledge.

Pros
  • It is not complicated
  • Very easy interface with various tabs.
  • Everything runs really fast (for me at least)
  • Has all necessary components needed when working within graphics industry; shader nodes/unifiers etc
  • Tutorial videos available through internet searches :)
Cons
  • Limited number textures / shaders
  • Some materials look weird
