Cricut machines use the software Design Space, which is compatible with Windows and macOS computers as well as iOS and Android Devices. If you already have a computer, it’s essential to check it meets the requirements to work with Cricut.
If you’re buying a new computer you should also check the requirements, remember that the requirements shown on the Cricut site are the minimal requirements for the computer to work with Cricut, so if you’re buying a new one, it’s best if you get one that going to last you for a while. To best ensure your computer lasts a long time, try to buy something over the “minimal” requirements.
I asked my husband, a software developer, to help me find eight computers that work with Cricut and are not that expensive.
The price of a computer will increase based on the memory; the more RAM, the faster your computer will be, the processor, the storage, and the screen size.

Las máquinas Cricut utilizan el software Design Space, que es compatible con computadoras Windows y macOS, así como con dispositivos iOS y Android. Si ya tienes una computadora, es fundamental verificar que cumpla con los requisitos para trabajar con Cricut.
Si va a comprar una computadora nueva, también debe verificar los requisitos, recuerde que los requisitos que se muestran en el sitio de Cricut son los requisitos mínimos para que la computadora funcione con Cricut, por lo que si va a comprar una nueva, es mejor si compras uno que te dure un buen tiempo. Para asegurarse de que su computadora dure mucho tiempo, intente comprar algo que supere los requisitos “mínimos”.
Le pedí a mi esposo, un desarrollador de software, que me ayudara a encontrar ocho computadoras que funcionen con Cricut y que no sean tan caras.
El precio de una computadora aumentará según la memoria; cuanta más RAM, más rápida será su computadora, el procesador, el almacenamiento y el tamaño de la pantalla.
