Very clear.

By Kas stucinskas

Clear instructions and a very good course for absolute beginners. At the same time, there is very little outside of what one could find reading the help file. Some more practical tips such as shown in the very last lecture (removing person from the scan) would be much appreciated.

By Enrico Maria Rinaldi

Semplice e diretto.

Una infarinatura di base, necessaria soprattutto per capire i formati di RECAP.

Alcune cose della UI sono disposte in mod diverso nella versione 2019, andrebbero fatti degli aggiornamenti o inserite lezioni che seguono lo sviluppo delle versioni.

By Thomas Elmore

I liked the course very much as it provides a good overview to the program. I highly recommend it.

By Juho Janhunen

Good for absolute beginner like me but everything is super simple. Missing the information about how to connect and line up point cloud data by aligning it properly when bringing in scans from location i.e. how to build the pointcloud of a building step by step from scratch.

Okay foundation but very overpriced considering its contents and it being outdated (program has changed since this tutorial was made so things are not in same places on the UI anymore).
