Simplicity doesn't necessarily mean better.  Most pros don't get into higher end 3D apps because they are simple, they get into the higher end apps because they are far more capable. But, Cinema 4D with InterPoser Pro allows you to use Poser content just as easily as Poser ... and you can also get hair and cloth plugins for it that do a far better job than Poser's can.
