If you want to build a 3D scene from scratch in the browser, Vectary is a good fit. If you already have a STEP or SolidWorks file and simply need a client, a workshop or an after-sales team to open it, OmniView is the dedicated tool.

Vectary is the better choice for product or UX designers who want to create, model and collaborate on 3D assets directly in the browser without CAD software. For collaborative 3D mockups (industrial design, packaging, 3D UI), Vectary is well positioned. OmniView 3D does not create or edit 3D.
