Sketchup Pro Render Farm

[asmus101]

Hello everyone. I currently have an issue I was wondering if the experts would be able to solve.

Where I work, we have a group of employees utilizing Sketchup Pro. The downside is some of these users are working off of older Macbook Pros. The render time for their projects really slows down productivity.

Now, I have in my possession a large number of Mac Pro towers that could be set up for a rendering farm over the network. Do any of you have any experience setting up a render farm, especially on a Mac environment? Or have a software that you would recommend. Preferably, any software recommended would come with a free trial to test for our users.

Thanks everyone for your time.

You can take a look at RenderPal for starters.

Julian,

Something is askew. I received your response, but I didn’t initiate the inquiry.
