Sup guys I haven't been back for so long and I am very happy to see you. So as I've been going trough the BlueSky's Ice Age credits and what I noticed was that they've put their renderer in the lines. It was CGIStudio. Their own developed renderer in the early days. To get on point. What do you think about it. Is it better and faster than Cycles or it's not? I'll appreciate any replies and questions on this topic. I know that 99/100 depends on the animator but do you think that CGIStudios can "make our lives easier"?

I voted for Blender Cycles, because: 1. I use it 2. ...I have no other reason...But... I have seen Blender Guru and other guys in blender forums create amazing renders, as good as cgi studio... and some even better. I voted for Blender Cycles, but I think they're equally good.

In a lot of senses it's equally important to know more softwares and BTW did you notice that those guys created their own which is really impressive!
As I said, it depends on the developer(s) but some softwares can be easier to use or to have faster action.

After some more research I found out that they use Maya and ZBrush for modeling.

I found something better than cycles render... Luxrender It's really, really accurate, lot of materials and algorithms to choose from, cpu and gpu rendering and it's free. The only problem is that it's kinda hard to learn.

The thing - STOP bumping into old threads! Even when I checked this I saw that this thread is useless because everything what matters is the artist not the render engine!
