Full review
RebusFarm GmbH is a render farm company based in Leverkusen, Germany. Its About page says the farm was founded in Cologne in 2006.
The imprint names RebusFarm GmbH, Montanusstrasse 16, 51373 Leverkusen, commercial register Cologne HRB 70387 and managing director Ralph Huchtemann.
What can RebusFarm render?
RebusFarm lists 3ds Max, Cinema 4D, Maya, Blender, V-Ray, Corona, Redshift, Arnold, Octane, Maxwell, Modo, LightWave, SketchUp and Rhino in its menu. Jobs go through its ControlCenter software.
The farm also lists a TeamManager, an NDA page and an Unlimited Render option.
How does RebusFarm relate to KeyShot?
KeyShot sells its own Cloud Rendering and Network Rendering. RebusFarm only renders; the user models and sets up the scene in another application.
KeyShot scenes are not listed among RebusFarm's supported software on the pages we read, so users must export to a supported engine.
Which law applies?
RebusFarm's terms state that its registered office is in Leverkusen, and that merchants must sue there for contract disputes.
The terms are German terms for cloud rendering. Prices on the pricing pages were not captured, so use the cost calculator on the site.
Where it falls short
RebusFarm provides rendering capacity, not a visualization tool, and KeyShot scenes are not listed as supported. Prices were not captured from the pages we read. Data location is not stated.
Who RebusFarm fits
RebusFarm suits studios using Blender, Cinema 4D or V-Ray that need extra capacity from a German company.
