Hard to say, because it is a question of what you need to do.Ioannis wrote:Any opinions on the above post ?
I like scene, but I like cyclone too. Depends on what I need.
The one thing I do know is that everything with Leica is like this:

(Guess who the rabbit is. How does that saying go- if you can't spot the sucker at the table he is YOU)
Scene is a fantastically capable all in one solution for most things. It does, however take a large investment of time to find all that awesomeness.
My OPINION: If I had limited $$$ and was looking for bang for my buck I would seek out a gently used Faro focus3d 130 and an old copy of scene. Goodness I think we paid $8k for cyclone and only got the register module. I see stuff on eBay every day for what seem to be very reasonable prices.
Finally, there are no help files or tutorials from Leica. Really. So you need to factor that in. You have to pay and pay and pay for their insanely expensive glacier paced training. Are you good at figuring out stuff on your own? Just browse through the cyclone forum here and see how often real questions are met with some hurrrdurrr like "well gee, sounds like you could use some training!" So could we all. Who's payin?
No easy answers. Just another internet idiot's advice.
