I have been giving Houdini a spin lately (still use Softimage primarily) and yes it is nice to have the render region for isolated stuff, for previews I still prefer Softimage (with Redshift) as I feel for the version number it ended on (3.x) it gives pretty solid interaction, where Houdini's preview just doesn't always update results.

There’s one in Houdini but not as handy as XSI’s one. And in Maya it is still lacking.
