Pros
I loved it because it is the software for begginners, its simply to use and once you can dominate and learn how works, you can jump to another software more complete. Or you can still using this one.
Cons
Its like a little old, and it need some upgrades to keep competing with newest software.

This software is really one of the best old software's for graphic and vector editing. It performs well once you get understanding on how to use it. I would urge people to use since learning how to use it not that complicated.
Pros
First what I liked about this software is because it is user friendly, it is easy to operate or use that software. Another this is its interface, it is so really simple in that I did not have any difficulty working with the features and components to come up with something productive. Another thing I like about this software is that it is available in more than platforms. Lastly it has an excellent collaboration tool in the comments sections which enables other users comment on its artwork without necessarily downloading the application.
Cons
Sometimes loading this application takes a lot time and this is really boring. Its pricing is somehow high compared to adobe related software's. It also has free version although it has limited features. I don't have much more negative about this software since it addresses all issues related to editing.

I used it for a loooong time. 10 years, maybe more. In one step of my career I needed something more precise, and I switched to Adobe products. Adobe Photoshop is very good and easy for use, Adobe Illustrator is quite heavy for using in compare with CorelDRAW but precised designs are my goal.
Pros
I like that CorelDRAW (and all of Corel PC Suite) is very easy to use. Everything that I need to show I can with this software.
Cons
In some cases (especially with Corel Photopaint but with CorelDRAW too ) I have an issue with precise editing. Exported files not always were in their resolutions (pixel or two in difference)

I am a Corel Draw professional. Been using since Corel Draw2. I have upgraded just about everytime Corel came out with a new version. 2017 (19) was the last stable version. 2018 was terrible and 2019 seems to follow suite. I run it on W10 Pro on a Older MAC Pro (8 Core 32GB, 1G VC) using Parallels desktop PRO version. Do yourself a favor and learn illustrator!
Pros
Looks Fancy, has some cool drawing tools
Cons
Crashes all time, makes thing more complex than they need to be.

In my city, where CorelDraw is widely used, I frequently work with printers. That's why I learnt to use it, and my experience has been positive in the areas I've stated. It should be mentioned that the learning curve is considerable. It serves numerous purposes, and practically all types of graphical puzzles can be handled smoothly even if you do not fully master it.
Pros
CorelDraw was once famous for its user-friendliness and straightforward UI. They were the first to release a version that permitted many pages in the same file, as well as form creation by dragging the mouse. Today, this virtue is preserved; it can work very well, and with good integration with other applications and prepress and printing processes, as well as the ability to export to almost any format in the graphic environment, it can very well cover the requirements that can be asked of a program like this.
Cons
Despite the foregoing, I must admit that at some time, CorelDraw became stagnant and was replaced by superior capabilities from the competition (such as the shape generation tool or 3D mapping). On the other side, I observe some structural instability in the software, and sudden closures with data loss are a recurring issue that has yet to be resolved. They constantly release new versions with minor tweaks, but such fundamental issues are not addressed.
