Affinity Publisher vs VinylMaster: Which is a better fit?

I'm very happy with the software and with the video tutorials which ensure that I continue improving my abilities as I explore the various program features.

M really only annoyed with my margin limitations. The page design features more than make up for any con.

Thanks to Publisher and it's affordable perpetual licensing plan I was able to ditch my expensive Adobe CC subscription. So far I'm very happy with the software.

Limited interactivity because with only hyperlinks and bookmarks.

The price is also very affordable, especially considering that it has very similar features to a lot of the other popular premium desktop publishing editors out there.

Maybe Affinity Publisher does exactly what I need it to do without it throwing a bunch of stuff at me that will ultimately confuse me.

The program runs smoothly with good UI and has all the features I need on a regular basis. It also has the ability to switch between Affinity programs quickly and easily which is a huge plus.

There is very little to dislike, but if I had to find something, I would say that the three levels of menu bars, are a little unusual, and the spacing of the middle menu bar looks off.

Ease of use, the training videos are super helpful, and the various products that can be used with VM is great. I can upgrade my machines as the business grows.

Lack of Customer Service in regards to any issues. Dont listen to problem want to lay blame of issues of program no working on faulty equipment when not the issue.

I've been using it for approx 25 years now has been great and is evolving and improving all the time and good value for money.

Bad customer service , never a humans response only robots whith automatic messages.

Everything, the best on the market, I switched to VM 15+ years ago and it keeps getting better and better. If you want something that works then its VM.

No drawing option, and constantly loses my artwork so file can't be opened.

In general, a very good experience in terms of handling files of different types, ease of vectorizing and modifying, and the large number of brands and models of plotters supported.

Sometimes, I get an unexpected error or not responding message, I really don't think it's the programs fault. I can sometimes have up to 10 files open and working at the same time.
