Overview
Conductor is a secure cloud-based platform that enables VFX, VR/AR and animation studios to seamlessly offload rendering and simulation workloads to the public cloud. As the only rendering service that is dynamically scalable to meet the exact needs of even the largest studios, Conductor easily integrates into existing workflows, features an open architecture for customization, provides data insights and can implement controls over usage to ensure budgets and timelines stay on track.
Highlights
- Turnkey rendering, with native DCC plug-ins and per-minute metered software licensing for all major software packages. No manual checkout of licenses or managing your own entitlements for cloud use.
- Spot Discovery technology searches the vast array of AWS Regions to automatically find the low-cost instances you need for your budget. And Cost Limits allow you to control those budgets even further, with real-time actions when limits are hit.
- Deadline integration available, which allows seamless cloud integration with your on-prem queue management system. Simply register your Deadline Server with Conductor and our Workers will update their status as if the render was running in-house.

Outstanding Experience with Impressive Features
Reviewed on Dec 05, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The keyword tracking (and now the topic tracking) is excellent. The keyword tracking and monitoring capabilities fuel insights and then offer us the ability to act on results with a variety of tools built into the monitoring capabilities. It is very easy to take action.
What do you dislike about the product?
The reporting features and specifically the clunkiness of Workspaces. It is wonderful to be able to drop in widgets, but the report building aspects of it (writing, images, formatting, etc.) are hard to work with. The interface is very old and outdated. The left-hand navigation is rough, too. How features are organized and accessed need work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Conductor is assisting us in shifting from a traditional search approach to one that considers AI-driven search results and performance. It has been very effective in helping us enhance our current SEO capabilities so we can be prepared for future needs.

How to observe what competitors are doing in the topics we want to be cited for. Providing ongoing views into progress to internal clients.

Efficient SEO Tracking with Room for Keyword Research Improvement
Reviewed on Dec 05, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I really like Conductor's feature that allows me to build very specific workspaces or dashboards, which I use to walk through data with SMEs, leaders, or stakeholders in my company. It helps show them how their group is performing digitally in traditional SEO and with the new AI search platforms. It's also all about how easy it is to access a certain level of information without having to dig through it, unlike other more manual and time-consuming SEO tools I have used before. Conductor is really nice because it lets us keep all our dashboards and workspaces in one place, and it's easy enough to use so that others can access their data, see the information themselves, and make educated decisions without needing much help from the SEO team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not the biggest fan of the keyword research tool in Conductor. I find tools like SEMrush easier to use, especially for researching keyword groups or analyzing a select amount of keywords. I haven't seen the ability to import a list of keywords, get data only for those specific keywords, and export without having to clean the file first. Conductor gives data on an overwhelming number of related keywords even when I just want a focused set. It's more streamlined with SEMrush, where I can export just the keywords I want without extra cleaning. Also, Conductor can be somewhat complex to use, but it's not too hard to get acquainted with if you have experience using similar tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Conductor helps track SEO metrics, KPIs, and AI keyword research. It provides AI performance overviews and allows me to share detailed digital performance with team leaders easily.
