Ultimaker Cura UX Survey

Hi,

 

As you know we're always working on Cura and we always try to make it a better fit with your daily routines. We talk a lot to our customers but sometimes it's better to straight up ask a few questions and let everyone talk who has something to say. 

 

That is why we created a little survey, to find out how you work with Ultimaker Cura. With the findings, we hope to improve the usability. You can find the survey here, and will take like 1 or 2 minutes to fill out. Thank you for your time, if you have any questions feel free to ask! 

 

Edit; at the end you may see an 'error:2T252/2' in a small font, this is unfortunately a technical inevitability, but your form will come in just fine!

    Hey @KickahaOta, thank you for your feedback. That is true, unfortunately, an inevitable technical 'flaw'. The survey's come in fine. I'll add an extra note about it in the original post so there should be no confusion. (or as little as possible anyway)

    Thanks for the clarification. Suggestion: If you can't get rid of the error message because of the technical limitation, change the text of the last question from "When you click ‘save’ you’ll see an overview of your answers for a final review. You can close that page when you’re done." to "When you click 'save' you'll see an 'error 2T252/2' message, but don't worry, we got your survey answers."

    Some of you might have realized there is an additional field called "anything else you want to tell us?". This is there to give you a chance to mention what might be improved in order to optimize UX (and not for rants about Cura ?). Maybe there is something in Cura that blocks regularly your workflow or costs you otherwise valuable time you would like to spend on designing cool models other stuff. Here is your chance to submit it pretty directly to the developer team.

    "...unfortunately, an inevitable technical 'flaw'. "
    Not if the survey were designed by someone competent at it, which the questions make plain it wasn't.

    Sorry Sander, but having designed surveys professionally, this one was not very well done. The questions do not permit unexpected answers, and are not phrased well.

    @eldrick, as mentioned above there is an additional field where you can place free text. Again, constructive critics have a good chance to be heard, rants and offenses less...

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.

      • Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released
        Cura now supports Method series printers!
         
        A year after the merger of Ultimaker and MakerBotQQ, we have unlocked the ability for users of our Method series printers to slice files using UltiMaker Cura. As of this release, users can find profiles for our Method and Method XL printers, as well as material profiles for ABS-R, ABS-CF, and RapidRinse. Meaning it’s now possible to use either Cura or the existing cloud-slicing software CloudPrint when printing with these printers or materials
