Alternatives Considered	I've looked into Artsteps and a few of the latest Meta makers and did not find them as user-friendly or robust. Alex Teplish Author Read full review	We have looked at other, "Matterport like" products. One of the greatest advantages Matterport has over the other products we have reviewed is the ability to automatically create 3d walkthroughs and host the walkthroughs where we need them. Many of the "Matterport like" apps focus on Showing existing homes and spaces. We have used Matterport for this purpose but our primary use is to show the process of a construction project from the beginning, throughout, and to the finished product.

Return on Investment	Innovative method to teach. Alex Teplish Author Read full review	The greatest return on investment that Matterport has given my business is the amount of information we can have without having to go on-site multiple times. Before Matterport we would take hundreds of pictures of an existing space to try to gather the amount of information we needed. There would always be spots where the pictures we took do not give as much information as we hoped for. With Matterport you have 360 images where you can see much more.
