No complaints. I would like more categories at top navigation level. The listing facets are fine but cumbersome. For example, if I think there should be a category for your premiere product, Genesis 8.
Daz3d is a $#*!ty program that freezes up my computer. Avoid it. There are better programs out there.
The Daz store would REALLY benefit from more robust filter and sorting functionality. Like, for example, being able to filter by both a current sale and a category like outfits, or poses, or add-on utilities.
Despite the huge number of items and collection of items or "bundles" along with the many different "specials," the DAZ store has become much easier to navigate. I knew what I wanted from visiting the site earlier, but DAZ was still able to make suggestions on other items similar to what I placed in my cart. I wasn't expecting to buy more than what I intended, but felt good about the deal I got!
Item was on sale, additionally, if I purchased more 'like' items, DAZ gave me an even better deal.
Daz3D shope is not working in my primary browser (Google Chrome) - can pass the captcha when logging so any work with the shop is not possible. Have to install secondary browser (Mozilla) to be able to log in.
Got quick answer with information required.
As I'm not skilled in 3D modeling, features provided by Daz3D allow me to work on stuff I want.
Purchased products was on sale for free so get them in case of future need.
It would be 5 stars BUT: Search is horrible. I need a way to see, in the HUGE sale categories, to filter out the items I've added to my wish list. Secondly, the wishlist needs a way to remove items I've bought. And third, the wishlist needs a way to filter by 'on sale'. I'd buy a lot more stuff. I realize your marketing people probably want to have me look at page after page of stuff, but instead I just leave without buying ANYTHING.
They take your money immediately but they are very slow in delivering your purchase, or even a good product. They make you purchase useless items with the promise that you will get a good one in the near future - which does happen eventually, but only way later than promised, without the promised discount, and sometimes only if you were lucky enough not to have to send a ticket for it ( which, of course, needs weeks to process). Also, their flagship product ( DAZ3D program itself) has many issues that they would not tell you about. For example, even tough they encourage you to buy products after products, they don't tell you that the program cannot support even a medium-sized library. You only find out after you insist and insist to talk to someone who can explain why the simplest action ( like, selecting an item in the scene) takes minutes to complete - which, obviously, makes the program useless. They also charge you in advance for the yearly subscription, and, in my case, TWICE ( only got my money back after complaining to the bank about it; and they did not even bother to apologize).
Tip for consumers:
Do not buy more than what you absolutely need for your renders, no matter how many promises you get from daz. Try renderosity or renderhub instead for 3d models.

I purchased a gift card, but the order confirmation page only offers to let me INSTALL my order. That is not applicable to gift cards. Why doesn't it offer to let me convert my gift card to Store Credit?
Relatively good sale price on gift cards

Hate the add to cart pop up that doesn't even tell the cart total cost. Can't search for particular artist in the store anymore - text input field is gone and the artist order is not even alphabetical. Too much white space on left of shop page.

Has GoFigure gone the way of the dodo? I noticed that the product is listed in the store as 'inactive',, and there is precious little in the way of aniblocks for Genesis 8.
Am I going to have to search for another animation strategy/pipeline? I am just a hobbyist, after all...!
Needed Genesis 8 aniblocks for a project
I use Daz 3D for the figures only, whom I mostly export directly to Maya, 3ds Max aso. Sadly I must say, I would love to use Daz 3D more often but, as a Pro 3D artist your business model doesn't simply suit my needs! First, there is the file path and structure sytem, who is simply a mess, very often files disappear, don't load correctly... second, working in Daz studio is simply outdated compared to other 3D software, and third, there is simply no structured help reference, learning system, fourth the bridges (3ds Max, Maya) are unfinished and rarely updated. Why don't you develop a second more stable payable Pro version for pro artists, and studios? You have clearly a niche market with your figures, something the competition doesn't have or make the bridges way better professional and charge more for them, regards!
The figures, only the figures
MOST of everythings good, although we would like to see more styles of sci fi and superhero content, armor, symbols like the omega symbol, letters like the alpha, omega, theta, beta, secret lairs, for villians and heroes, pants with tiger stripes cut outta them, and gadgets.
Sales. We really need to bring back the older stack sales.
Daz as a company has lost touch with its customers. You seem more interested in pushing gaming and NFT's instead of trying to keep your 3D art costumers around.
Your QA has slipped over the years and you are on par with how bad Renderosity was 10 years ago and appear to have no interest in fixing the issue and treating your customers better.
You also have a serious issue with some of your moderators. Richard seems to be more interested in delivering snarky or snide comments than helping people.
For the freebies
The weekly and Christmas freebie.
Although purchasing is quite easy. Downloading is a train wreak and utter nightmare! DazCentral is complete garbage. It freezes with any mouse click and take 4 to 5 times to download anything without it crashing and you are forced to FORCECLOSE the program.
I buy from just about every category in the DAZ store, except clothing. While I'm happy to have found this product, I really do like clothing, but DAZ clothing no longer has useful morphs- it's just dforce. This is fine, it usually looks good in many poses, but it no longer has useful morphs. This really limits clothing in the DAZ store compared with clothing from other sites.
This looks like an older product that doesn't look photo realistic, but the sale price made it reasonable.
Actually purchasing items on DAZ is easy (maybe even too easy. Lol). Two areas that aren't easy is figuring out whether some items are on sale, and how much the discount might be. The item I purchased today had a clearly marked down price so there was no mystery about how much it would cost.
Generally products offered on the DAZ site are of exceptional quality.
The product uses a product I already own (Victoria 8), and it was marked down 70%. I looked at other items in the various sale sections, many of which were on sale at a deeper discount only a few days ago, and many of the discounts are confusing and misleading. The actual price of many items is a riddle.
I am not impressed with the DAZ web site, it does not work well with Firefox, returning to last page does not return you to the same spot of last page or sometimes to the last page at all, moving forward to the next page dumps you at the bottom of the next page and does not load any of the itmems on that page until you scroll to the top manualy. I know these are minor things but i liked your old site much better.
I love it so much! Its easy to animate! The characters are so realistic so thats a big plus! I would recommend this software to everyone i know! Guaranteed! Its a very easy software to use! And very fun to create different morphs and create beautiful characters! I find it very addicting and loads of entertainment! I been using this software for 10 years and i have had nothing but good things to say about it! This is the best animated and render software i ever used in my whole life and i am very happy!
Ty so much Daz3d! You are the best! Also i am very impressed on how daz studio has update alot and made the rendering speeds much faster! They have done a marvelous job and iam very happy with them!
All good as usual. The new layout works fine. Not entirely happy with the cart's pop up window every time an item is added. An off-screen cart would be much nicer and practical.
Why wouldn't I? ;) My favourite money sink. Goes well with my morning coffee. Keep up the good work!
Attractive deal.
Ps. Not sure what to expect from that "follow-up" option below. Seems like adding an unnecessary workload to you guys. I am satisfied. If any issues arise I know how to get in touch with you ;)
This site is disturbingly lacking in easily accessible user reviews, ratings and feedback on products. Basic information like date of publication is missing from product pages.
I got a sub a while back for Daz+, might as well stop by and get what I can.
It was free.
The number and quality of free items that comes along with Daz+ has been consistently disappointing in recent months and is making me think it won't be worth renewing my membership.
Daz+ membership.
Came along with it.
I like seeing sports outfits for G8/8.1 males, thank you.
I would also love a baseball, and soccer outfit, but in time I'm sure they will come. Thanks, DAZ
I choose Daz everyday
Been looking for sports sets. Until now been using Renderosity's soccer gear for G2M, but with some tweaking it has been OK.
As you can see from my account, I buy a ton of stuff - but everything is so expensive now, and sales are non-existent. No March Madness sale this year. It's unfortunate, and it honestly makes me sad.
* Daz3D attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond
An excellent product which, combines great visuals with relatively easy-to-use manipulation of the models. It has transformed the imaging for my podcast "Angel and May"
Stonemasons models are always excellent, so past purchases guided my decision.
While some products remain good value and quality like this one the new packaging model has left me shopping less here and considerably more at competitors sites
This particular product offered the look / style I was seeking and was on sale
I was able to renew my yearly DAZ+ with a sweet discount which simply means I paid less for more goodies and discounts for the entire year. I'll take that, thank you very much.
I love DAZ. I have been a content creator (With DAZ and only DAZ) for many years now. It is thanks to DAZ that I now have a job and life as a creator. And as such, I wish to show my support in any way I can. This is one of them. I really hope we get soft bodies and physics someday.
Prices even with discounts tend to be too high. There's a constant price creep on all products. As a hobby this is getting too expensive. I wish the check out process would remember my preferences.
It was on a good sale and I had a coupon that worked in addition to the sale price.
Very good 3d products, especially in the "sale!" easy to navigate and well laid out site, with a pretty good search function that usually finds what one is looking for, thank you.
They were on my wishlist for a while and then went on sale!
High-quality products are easy to install, and they render very well.
The items I purchased today were on sale!
DAZ 3D has high-quality models, the site is easy to use, and thank you for the great free items!
Was just browsing and came across the Keiko 6 bundle, great thank you!
Great high-quality 3d models, also free software to create and render your artwork!
Several of my wishlist items were on sale!
I was looking for some products to create a Frank Frazetta type art, I found a Dragon, figure and suitable attire and gratefully they were all on sale at the time, which enabled me to buy all I needed to start creating the art I was interested in doing, great!
The items were what I was looking for and there was also a sale going on today.
Overall, I like shopping here. Sometimes I need too much time to choose between products, but I see that site is improving, so hopefully it will be easier from now on.
I am checking every day to see new products, discounts and freebies.
Because it was free Discord daily deal. :)
