    What is the best CnC Control Software - a Poll

    Hello

    I have recently been evaluating cnc software and am having trouble deciding which program to use

    Does anybody have any strong opinions about which software to use...)

    So far the latest Centroid software is at the top of my list!

    1 Centroid Acorn
    2 PlanetCNC
    3 Mach 4
    4 Linuxcnc

    Many thank in advance for the help

    Sincerly Steven G

    Yes, everyone will have a strong opinion that the one they use is the best one.

    What are you're requirements?
    If the Centroid will do what you want, then I'd say it's probably the best, from what I've heard.
    If you need features or options that the Acorn can't do, then my preference is UCCNC.
