SummuS Render
SummuS Render
With our render-as-a-service system, you get unlimited power 24/7. Currently available for Maya and 3D Studio Max. Shorten delivery times according to the required processing power. In addition, all power that is not reserved by other customers is shared between active projects to reduce even further your render time without an increase in the GHZh price. Take advantage of our promotions and benefit from free additional credits. Thanks to our own high-efficiency data center, our prices are unbeatable. From 0.02 €/GHzh (€1.4 per render hour). Most of the render farms in the world provide only a limited management system and setup service, usually based on hardware they don't have on their own with a non-exclusive use. When it comes to High-Performance Computing (HPC) and when deadlines to get fast results are critical (which is the case with the rendering process), working that way might have many damaging consequences in terms of costs, versatility, answer time, etc.

    "New features that will help you to achieve incredible cost savings."

    5 out of 5 stars Posted 2026-02-09

    Pros: Wait and Save feature: Up to 95% cost savings compared to on-demand pricing
    Perfect for non-time-critical workloads
    No upfront commitment: pay only for what you use

    Cons: Not so perfect for time-critical workloads
    Deadline Cloud is great for standard workloads, but teams with deeply customized onprem render pipelines may find migration effort high, especially when relying on unusual plugins, scripts, or legacy toolchains.

    Overall: I’ve been using Deadline Cloud’s Wait & Save mode for non‑urgent renders these past weeks, and it’s been excellent. By letting jobs start later on service‑managed fleets, I get lower vCPU‑hour pricing without sacrificing privacy. It’s perfect for overnight iterations and low‑priority queues, and combines smoothly with Spot or On‑Demand where needed
