English term or phrase: steep learning curve

Уважаемые коллеги,
Речь о достоинствах программы создания 3D-изображений Bryce.
вот контекст:
One of the Bryce's great features is that anyone can create great landscapes with ease. While most 3D applications have a steep learning curve, here you can create decent scenery in a matter of hours.
Как корректно перевести steep learning curve?
Спасибо большое
