1) workflow speed efficiency
2) ability to overcome most problems without scripting or plugins
3) non destructive workflow: there are almost no point of no returns
in Softimage
4) text based buttons (huge plus if you suffer from certain forms of
visual agnosia)
5) ICE

about Softimage?

4 - Modelling

My top 5 are modeling area biased:

since the Regularize tool doesn´t stop at shell borders)
2) Everything that´s part of the M shortcut/workflow

3) The render

The most convenient thing in Softimage is the Transformations options:

1. full functionality available to a non-scripting, non-technical artist
(some people are calling this the out-of-the-box or pipeline-in-a-box
quality)
2. ICE, which extends this notion to a granular level
3. workflow smoothness -- relatively few clicks, multi-ppg mode,
Render Pass management and Overrides.
Render Tree
ICE
Excellent and customizable interface.
