Replacements
Listings that take over the same core job as AstroPrint.
SimplyPrint
A cloud platform for slicing, monitoring, queueing and managing one or many 3D printers.
SimplyPrint also combines a browser slicer with monitoring and queueing, supports many printer brands without extra hardware, and adds Android and iOS apps; advanced fleet features cost extra.
3DPrinterOS
Cloud platform for managing printers, files and users across a fleet of 3D printers.
3DPrinterOS is a cloud service focused on central control of printers and users across a fleet, aimed at universities, labs and print farms rather than single home printers.
Creality Cloud
Creality's app and web platform for sharing 3D models, cloud slicing and remote printer control.
Creality Cloud offers cloud slicing, remote printer control and a large free model library, but its remote features are centred on Creality printers.
FDM Monster
A self-hosted dashboard for managing a farm of 3D printers running OctoPrint, Moonraker, PrusaLink or Bambu Lab firmware.
FDM Monster is a free self-hosted dashboard for OctoPrint, Moonraker, PrusaLink and Bambu Lab printers, so it avoids the cloud but needs a server and setup.
Repetier-Server
A self-hosted server for controlling and monitoring several 3D printers from a web browser.
Repetier-Server runs several printers from one local self-hosted installation without a subscription, with webcams and G-code previews, but it has no cloud slicing and Pro features cost extra.
Prusa Connect
Prusa Research's cloud service for monitoring, queuing and controlling Prusa 3D printers remotely from a browser.
Prusa Connect is a free cloud service with remote control, per-printer queues and job distribution, but it only works with supported Prusa printers.
