I use Sketchup to make scenes, its a very fast work flow and a easy application to learn, there's also a huge warehouse with every item you could imagine.. just beware quite a lot are rubbish!
Daz characters to Visionaire isn't that simple, usually the eyes, hair and eyelashes don't have transparency so you need to import them into something else to fix this and also the animation tracks names
Also read the licensing on Daz characters, clothing and hair, restrictions apply, rendered images are fine but re using geometry is a different matter
Daz Studio can be a money pit even though its free the content isn't and you can end up spending a fair bit just to get the character to how you want it and probably buying stuff that just doesn't look like it did on the web site
I'd try Makehuman and then use Blender for animation and textures
