Bought a digital fabric cutter from a company called Cricut for my small line and it cost me $350 plus a ton of time.

The software was so hard to work with for my patterns that I spent more time fixing errors than cutting. After two months of trying, I gave up and went back to my old rotary cutter. Has anyone found a good cutter that actually works with complex designs?

Ugh, I had the exact same problem with their software, felt like I was fighting it more than using it.

Tell me about it. I spent twenty minutes just trying to find the export button. Felt like the software was actively hiding it from me out of spite.

Actually, that's kind of the point. It's not meant to be simple. The complexity forces you to slow down and think, which prevents big mistakes. Maybe you just need to spend more time learning it properly.
