Quote - Shade's render engine has always had a good reputation, and is supposed to be very fast. Unfortunately, it looks like you need to get the pro version to get SSS, so the lower cost versions may not be a good alternative to Firefly (see the feature comaprison chart here).

Took me a while to find where it was listed.  I'm not sure about the wording as it says "Subsurface Scattering Parameters" which might mean that the basic version could still render SSS through PoserFusion.  I know that's probably highly unlikely, but would be nice since that's a Poser feature and all versions are listed as being 2014 compatible.
