1 Ease of Use

When you're just starting out, the ease of use of any 3D printing software is paramount. You want to look for a program that has a straightforward interface with drag-and-drop functionality, simple navigation, and clear labeling of tools. An ideal beginner-friendly software would include a tutorial or a guided mode, which can walk you through the process of creating your first 3D print, from design to slicing and finally, printing.

2 Design Tools

The design tools available in 3D printing software are crucial for creating your models. For beginners, software that offers a good selection of pre-made shapes and objects can be incredibly helpful. It's also beneficial if the program allows for easy modifications and customizations through basic actions like scaling, rotating, and combining shapes without requiring extensive knowledge of complex modeling techniques.

We use Solidworks for design since it is widely used in the industry, we also use a translator software in case native data is sent to us for printing. MagicsRP works great to evaluate, split, hollow and other 3d print usefull features.

3 Slicing Simplified

Slicing is the process of converting your 3D model into instructions that a 3D printer can understand. The software you choose should make this step as straightforward as possible. Look for a slicer that automatically generates support structures, optimizes print settings for material and resolution, and previews your print layer by layer. This will help you avoid common printing errors and ensure successful prints.

We use eiger for our Markforged printers, and it jsut works fine all the time, no matter if parts are big or small with fine features. We also have a couple of printers that can work with "open" software and we use Simplify with them, simplify has more options but most of the times we prefer the "one" click to print approach of eiger.

As an open source software, Blender naturally comes with a big and wonderful community of enthusiasts. In my opinion, Blender has one of the best online communities out there. Ranging from countless tutorials, sharing of artwork (and getting feedback thereof) to marketplaces, theres everything in obdunce and in high quality. The community is thriving and there is endless help, inspiriation and new techniques to be found.

5 Compatibility Matters

Make sure the 3D printing software you're considering is compatible with your printer's brand and model. It should also run smoothly on your computer's operating system. Compatibility extends to the types of files it can handle; the software should be able to import and export common file formats used in 3D printing like STL (StereoLithography) and OBJ (Object File).

6 Future Growth

Lastly, while a user-friendly interface for beginners is essential, it's also important to consider whether the software can support your growth as you become more experienced. The ideal software should offer advanced features that you can learn and utilize over time, ensuring that it remains useful as your skills in 3D printing evolve, without needing to switch to a more complex program later on.
