Works well software is TERRIBLE

I work in Photoshop and Illustrator and Silhouette Studio has to be the WORST software I have ever used. LOST so much time just to click on 1 item. Your software is really disappointing and really makes me rethink the ways I CANNOT use this machine so as not to waste my time. Of course, if you want ALL the features of the software, buying a $200 machine is not enough, you have to pay for an UPGRADE to use some of the features.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Looks

MAC BIG SUR: Stamping & Embossing

I didn't find the whole setup particularly comfortable and the image library that came with it wouldn't load onto my computer. I've tried loading and unloading the program, logging in and out multiple times, but to no avail. I contacted Silhouette via email and this was their response. (I'm aware that your designs aren't showing up in your library. I'm happy to help you with that today! Just to clarify, I noted on your ticket that your operating system is Mac Big Sur. If so, Silhouette Studioโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Comfortable
Cons
  • Nothing

Absolutely amazing ๐Ÿคฉ

I got tired of hand cutting stickers for my business so I ordered this machine instead of Cricut. I had no problems with the software, but it can be difficult for a beginner to understand how to use it. For me the easiest way to create stickers was to load them into the program as a transparent png file and use the offset tool. Most of the time the cut was perfect and the only issue I had was that the blade didn't cut through the entire area. way through. I also had some issues with the machine

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure

Good upgrade, suitable for scrapbooking and stamping

Okay, I've had the Silhouette SD (one of the early versions) for ten years now. I loved it. But recently I had problems with it and I decided to buy a new car. It's pretty cute. Bluetooth is pretty cool, but since I'm on a desktop I have all the ports I need, so Bluetooth isn't that big of a deal. I like that it cuts very precisely and is almost the same as my old machine so I don't have to learn. I like to create things in Photoshop and then cut them into a silhouette, but the Silhouetteโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Compatible with PixScan. 2 mm gap for thicker materials. Connect via USB or use Bluetooth for wireless communication. With Silhouette Studio you have endless design possibilities.
Cons
  • A few little things

Big improvement, clunky software

Around the same time last year I tried Portrait 2. Nothing but misery. He chewed on my mats, never fixed the printed markings properly, and never cut the same thing twice in a row. Forward slashes kept failing or shutting down completely. I had to send it back after two days of frustration. Portrait 3 changed the rules of the game for me. The Autoknife is great, just place it on the paper to be cut and you're done. You don't even have to use a sticker sheet mat unless you cut all the paper. Now

Pros
  • Silhouette Portrait 3. AutoBlade. 8" x 12" cutting mat. Power cord and USB cable. Silhouette Studio software.
Cons
  • Little things

Some connection issues but the software makes up for it!

I ordered a portrait after the Cricut incident in 2021 (with the announcement that we would have to pay to download more than 20 drawings, which will be canceled next year) and I have no regrets! There are many comparisons to Cricut in this review (I had an Air Explore 2 in particular), so hopefully it will help people who are wondering whether to get a Cricut or a Sihouette. I know I've seen a lot of bad reviews for the software alone, but I had no problems with this one. I love that I canโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Machine features: Cutting width up to 8 inches. Cut length up to 12 inches (with cutting mat) OR up to 60 feet (with some roll media).
