The Graphical user interface is nice Product roadmap with constant upgrades It's easy to receive support if necessary

Works well with many printer brands.

Dislike

Other slicer programs connect better with the printer for remote access. file management. As a stand alone slicer cura still performs well, but not so much for print job management

We use Android and would like to have an Android version, and an iPados version.

Dislike

Some features can be buried in sub menus, but once you know its there its not too bad.
