I love that Affinity Designer works so well with Affinity Photo (another WONDERFUL program) and Affilnity Publisher. It's easy to use when first you figure out its logic.
There have been some minor problem while I am using the software such as program automatically closed while I was doing my work.
What I really love about this graphic editing tool is that you don't have to pay a subscription for it. What's great as well is that the one-off price is very affordable.
So, there's no real con to buying this program, especially at its price point. Keeping track of the art boards gave me a headache the first time I used them.
It works like AI, in fact, even better. What I like most is that is has simple one-line instructions that tell you what actions you can take on the selected objects—it's like a training system.
There are some features that don't work as intended or are missing entirely, when compared against other vector design software.
Here is a piece of software with great customer support and an amazing community behind it. It is very intuitive and the learning curve is not steep at all.
Many tools/commands are similar but different. Deciding when to use Designer vs Photo is confusing.
I like for about all this software, because i am designer and i have a client. This time is good choose for using vector magic, so magic and beautiful finishing work.
I tried getting a refund within 3 hours of purchasing the software and was denied.
Fantastic software for tracing and creating logos and saving as vectors. Simple platform that is user friendly and easy to figure out.
When images are complex it can be very difficult to adjust settings to eliminate auto-aliasing or other artifacts.
It is a great tool, great software, can do all you could wish for.
I don't like that the base layer of the image created is one solid block that is difficult to break down.
What I like most about this software is it’s ease of use and It’s simplistic interface.
Speaker 1: Hi, I'm Chris. I'm a content strategist. I give Affinity Designer five stars. For more reviews like this, click the link below. Before Affinity Designer, I was using the Adobe Suite of products, specifically Photoshop and Illustrator. The main reason why I didn't like those solutions is that I found them to be very cumbersome and taking up a lot of memory, a lot of space on my computer. I chose Affinity Designer because it was a much lower cost. There's no subscription model. You pay for the software, you have the software. And also, the company that makes Affinity Designer provides tremendously good help videos, tutorials, as well as printed books that guide you through Affinity Designer and how to use it. Working with Affinity Designer, especially if you've worked with any other image type software, is relatively easy to pick up and understand. It's different from most of the other solutions out there, but once you spend time with it's very easy to pick up the tool set, the features, how to use them, and how to get the most out of it. If you're considering Affinity Designer, there is a tremendous amount of help available getting you up and running, getting you started, helping you figure out how to use Affinity Designer to its fullest extent. There's also a tremendous community out there of designers and Affinity Designer users that really provide all of the answers to the questions that you might have. But the tool itself is very easy to use and you can accomplish some really great designs using it.
