Look what other software can do these days. The reason people stick to Daz is that they sunk considerable amounts of money into a software ecosystem that's large and by compatible to only itself. You are hardware locked into NV (unless you are seriously willing to software render, which I can only recommend to high elves and other eternals) and is riddled with ridiculous feature lackings, such as the main mode in the editor being actually software rendered which means large resp. complex scenes are impossible. Their forum is from last millenium, their shop is magnitued behind the competition (Rendo, Rhub), support is practically non-existent, so is documentation. You can only run multiple instances with a 3rd party script that can break any day and if you use it a plugins like Bookmark Manager don't work as only the UI of the main instance saves them to disk, the others won't merge. And we haven't started on how out of nowhere cryptic erroneous entries appear overnight which only gives you a glimpse of what a patchwork the underlying code must be. The content libraries are void of useful search functions or display options. I could go on and on. 

All of this I could stomach as long as it was free, but now 18.99 a month to get a handful of good features while the rest stays a ruin and questions about DS5 roadmaps get deleted?

I wish there was an up vote feature here....
