ReCap vs. ReCap Pro
By Anna Liza Montenegro | BIM, Data Management
With Autodesk ReCap software you are able to create accurate 3D models with reality capture using laser scanning. This software, which lets you convert reality into a 3D model or 2D drawing, actually comes in two flavors: ReCap and ReCap Pro. This blog post is here to explain the differences between the two.
To access ReCap, you can start a free 30-day trial. Once those 30 days are up, you will have the option to subscribe to ReCap Pro or continue using the free features of ReCap. Check out the comparison matrix below to review the different features!
To learn more about each product, head to our ReCap or ReCap Pro product pages or contacts us directly at info@microsolresources.com.
