Ease Of Use
Usability is our strongest weapon. Render setup is really as simple as pressing “Render”. Most new users will learn Corona in just one day, and fall in love with it over the next few…
Speed & Interactivity

The output quality and speed are not the only things that make a great renderer. That is why Corona comes with many “little” workflow tweaks that will make your life much easier…
Affordability
As a young company we have the luxury of being able to do things differently right from the start. We have taken a different approach not only in development but also when creating the license schemes…
