I've used both, I think DroneDeploy is better for mapping but for 3D creation, I think DJI GS Pro is better but without Pix4D I don't think you can stitch it together.

Produce some of your work then because I tried Pix4D and DroneDeploy is way easier but DJI GS Pilot for mapping with Adobe Photomerge does the same thing just without the GPS overlay and measurements.

I've made these with dronedeploy way back.

DroneDeploy is better for high volume corporate scenarios. Pix4D is better for "pretty" 3D models. Pix4D's customer support is lacking and DroneDeploy's is superb. DroneDeploy actually acts on feature requests from users and Pix4D gives you what they give you. Pix4D collaboration tools are horrible and I regret ever sending a client to their site for review. The only thing Pix4D has proven to do better in our experience is create larger point clouds which leads to better vertical models, but their terrain accuracy is horrible. Agisoft Metashape is better at modeling than both, but the interface is terrible and you still need a collaboration platform.

Adobe Photomerge does the same thing
If you think a photo merge with Photoshop is the same as a genuine orthophoto, you have the understanding of a rank beginner.
That's like believing that owning a tape measure makes you a surveyor.

They do the same thing if they come out looking the same.  Of course, GPS-accurate pictures are more ideal but it's definitely better than nothing.

A helicopter, car, boat, plane, etc. can take a person where they need to be so it's the same thing when people arrive but of course, they are different.

You can be an unlicensed driver and drive, you are still a driver.  You can be an unqualified pilot on the books but if you are flying, you are the pilot.  If you are controlling a boat w/o an endorsement, you are still the captain.  I know where are a lot of people who can be dumb at things but I'm the opposite.  It just comes out differently so I will ensure to make it known with supporting elements during the initial high-sensitive feeding argument.

When you know nothing about a technical area, it's easy to have misplaced confidence in your ignorance.
There's a big difference between a proper map-accurate orthophoto and a bit of Photoshop stitching.
But you'd have to understand something about the topic to appreciate that.
And that's never going to happen with you.

I know where are a lot of people who can be dumb at things but I'm the opposite.
Are you saying that you are even dumber?
What you are extremely good at is demonstrating the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Most kinds of communication with you are a wasted effort.
You're ignorance is extreme and have a disdain for the knowledge anyone else has.
The puzzle is why you choose to participate in a forum at all.

The trouble is he has no idea of the actual extent of his dumbness, which is normal for many types of intellectual deficiencies.

You will always say I have less knowledge than you even when I have more drone experience with other drones and drones in the future, you will always know more?

If past performance is any guide, you will always have less knowledge and I will always know more.
But I doubt very much that you have more experience.

Memories are important of course otherwise people could be completely lost.  In real-life, I don't bother giving people too much advice as I know people wouldn't believe me.  The best revert is when the communication feels good such as smiling or saying hello to new people.

It appears to be lower on than the page than it should be.

Why is there, that broad blank area, at the top of the opening page?

Can you move that up some. I couldn’t read the print at the bottom of the screen very well.

Put your site on Wordpress? Mine is on Wordpress and it works on all devices. Some hosts don't work kindly with all devices, but I found out that Wordpress worked best for me. Pretty reasonable too with costs and user interface.

I was learning on XD and Dreamweaver.  I've never tried Wordpress.

Is it an easy drag and drop animations on Wordpress?

I pay for nearly all the adobe software for one low-price.  I got it for PSD and LR but ended up using AE Premiere now XD and Dreamweaver.  Also messed around w/ inDesign  and Dimension a bit, PC renders faster than their cloud servers that cost more money.  I've used illustrator way back for some decals that went perfectly but haven't used it since.  They also have many other apps and templates to choose from so it's great.  I could imagine other software being better but w/o further research, it could be the best.
