Said about Orca Slicer as an alternative
nayote
I used Prusa Slicer for a long time, but ORCA is much more complete. It's not intended for a novice audience, but it has a lot of features and I'd venture to say that it calculates the printing time much better.

Comments and Reviews
I came from Cura, Slic3r, Prusa and Superslicer, but this is definitely the better one for me. My printing results are way better than before. Orca has nearly all you want plus one thing that makes it stand out, directional change in overhang perimeters per layer. This makes overhangs far stiffer and less prone to falling. Also you can paint your seams, not just lineary or aligned, you decide, just as the custom supports. Tremendous slicer.
