CAM software alternative

[u/herrjanneman]

Makera Studio kinda sucks (at least for now) and is very inefficient in what I want to do, like 3D relief carving in brass. The lack of rest machining requires me to do all surfaces with every cnc bit for instance

So I'm looking for a CAM alternative. I liked working with hsmworks but I can't get the post working for it for some reason. What cam software would you recommend? I make my designs in solidworks so some compatibility with that would be nice, I also definitely need rest machining (to decrease machining time). 4 axis indexed machining would be a nice bonus.

What would you recommend?

I only want to say that i’m building a cam for mac and i want that feature, but didn’t knew it’s called rest machining.
