Bear in mind when dealing with shape work in Maya, and this is in general, that anything outside of Soft is primitive, half arsed, and generally painful. In those regards (shapes) Soft was and will probably always remain unbeaten. Prepare yourself for vast amounts of pain on every front. The difference between -anything- and Soft is a gaping chasm.
I know of some very large, very prominent shops that are known to NOT use Soft that picked it up solely for that at times.
