RebusFarm

4.2
(9)
"Rebus is great on a number of fronts. They are in Germany, but every time I've had an issue here in the US, if I submit a ticket, they usually respond within an hour or two. Always. They've always been fair about refunding credits if a render goes bad on their end or due to some software glitch, and their rates are among the best you'll find."
·
"I've researched and tested many of the more popular farms and Rebus is the one I've continued to use in production every day at work. It has great software integration, is really easy to use and is very reliable."
·
"I always use RebusFarm, www.rebusfarm.net. They are based in the UK, but rendering is seamless. Prices are very workable. They have a plugin that goes directly into C4D, you setup your project, use the plugin, and everything is uploaded and then downloaded into your specified save folder. Very seemless process"
·
"I use Rebusfarm"
·
"Biased as I am in the EU and close to Germany but Rebusfarm is good."
·
"C4D and Redshift on Rebus renderfarm is fast and they have good support."
·
"They support Cinema 4D and Optone very well."
·
"It's a good option to use Rebusfarm."
·
"Rebusfarm: approx 4800$, Ranchcomputing between 2500 - 6000$."
