Not for everyone

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: buyers remorse.

Pros:

While it can probably create anything - you need to understand programming and logic and variables, there is a system of drop downs with options, but you have to know quite a bit to use.

Cons:

There are 2 default skins, you can change a few things and that's that. They recommend you build your skin from scratch.

The most flexible and powerful solution for Virtual Tours that I know

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: The learning curve was steep, but if you invest time, carefully read the documentation, watch tutorial videos and make your own experiments, you'll be able to create very high-quality, customized tours. Pano2VR is, for me, really the best virtual tour creation software that's currently available.

Pros:

The concept of this software allows for extreme customization of the Virtual Tour you're developing. The Nadir patching / pano retouching workflow is excellent - it is seamlessly integrated into the normal tour creation workflow. With predefined tour skins you can easily start to create high-quality tours. With time, you may want to customize skins to fit your or your customers' needs.

Cons:

Everything is straight forward. However, the skin editor (the tool where you can customize the look and feel of your tour) needs a lot of learning and still has (in current version 6.1.1) a few weaknesses in presenting the user a good overview of all skin features. All tour features are there, but finding a condition or action that you added months ago somewhere into a very customized skin, may not be so easy. Also, a "zoom to mousepointer" feature is not yet available (v. 6.1.1), but it will probably be added to the software soon (v. 7).

Virtual Tour Creator and much more.

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: The software is awesome, it has flexibility for custimsation of its skins, varitety of outputs, great support on socail media and private user forum. The developers listen to user requests and try there best to impliment them into updates. The software is execellent value.

Pros:

Pano2VR is a great piece of software for creating virtual tours, the software offers a basic option for those first getting start as well as the option for more advance customization. The software offers Google Street View, A great selection of outputs from HTML to VR and the ability to batch process.

Cons:

Look there aren't many cons as the developers and the forum group are very good at helping suggest an alternative work around.

360 Virtual Tour Software

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: I feel that Pano2VR has enabled me to create tours more quickly and more professionally that I could otherwise, and my workflow is faster.

Pros:

The software does what it is supposed to do, and much more besides. My main requirement was to make panoramic tours for Google Street View. Pano2VR does this much better than the Google Street View app. I can level images, connect them more intuitively, and find older tours more easily. The bonus is that I can create stand-alone hosted tours with menus, info windows, pop-up images and videos, and customise the look a feel. I tried about half a dozen other brands of software, but Pano2VR had the best overall features and experience.

Cons:

As with any software there is a learning curve. My only gripe is that some of the shortcut keys are not intuitive, but support is alway available.

Full-featured, and fully-supported.

5.0 5 years ago

Pros:

The small team that developed and maintains this essential element of the VR-creation workflow is extremely responsive to user feedback and user-suggested feature development.

Cons:

I wish there was a branch of the software specifically for HMD and 3D users.

Pano2VR is powerful software.

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: It has been a valuable tool. It's allowed me, a non-programmer, to do some amazing things, things I could not have accomplished otherwise. I recommend it to anyone who wants to make amazing panoramic websites and tours.

Pros:

I can' do about anything I can imagine with my panoramic images with this software. From complex tours to simple tasks, it if fully capable.

Cons:

It takes a bit of getting used to. I wish it was more intuitive but like all powerful software, there is understandably a learning curve. I don't know of any features it lacks and it doesn't crash ever.

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: I have been able to produce virtual tours with stability, quality and features that were not possible in other solutions.

Pros:

After many years using Panotour Pro, which unfortunately was closed down by Kolor, I switched to Pano2VR. The features are incredible and it has a large support group.

Cons:

Difficult for me to learn, but there is lots of support.

Powerful 360° Virtual Tour creation software

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: Apart from doing customized virtual tours using Pano2VR I also use the built-in Google Street View facility to upload my tours to Google which is a massive time/cost saver.

Pros:

The software is very rich in features and with pre-designed skins (templates) you can be up and running in no time.

Cons:

Because of its power and flexibility, it can sometimes be a bit over daunting HOWEVER the support from Gnome software and the Facebook community is top-notch and there is always guidance to help achieve my goals.
