Is it worth upgrading from LaserCUT to EngraveLAB when designing in Illustrator?

Post by bradet60 »

Hoping some of you fine folks might have some experience you can share.

I am in the market for a laser and one of my top choices comes stock with LaserCUT 5.3, but the representative I spoke to recommended upgrading to EngraveLAB v9 as it would give me the ability to import Adobe Illustrator files directly. Since Illustrator is my design software of choice, this sounds like the smoothest option to me, but is it really necessary? Is it worth the additional $400 for the software or will LaserCUT 5.3 be satisfactory? Additionally, is there a third software that might be a better option?
