The inability to open .ai files is a minor problem for my use case, but when designing vectors from start, Inkscape is my favourite tool. ----- ### "Power, Free, and Open Source" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *8 November 2019* | Online Media | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I appreciate that I get a powerful vector design option without being tied to a costly subscription. As a small business owner (with an equally small budget) who needs to use quality design software, Inkscape has all of the features I need to get the job done and then some. > > **Cons**: Inkscape isn't always as user friendly as it could be and every once and awhile I find myself looking feature that seems like it should be an obvious choice to include. There are always work arounds, but they take longer. > > Inkscape allows me to create designs for laser cutting, for logos and other web graphics, etc. There is definitely a learning curve, but there is a wealth of information in a variety of formats to help get smooth things out. ----- ### "The cost of free" — 3.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *5 August 2021* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Best feature is the price it is free and yes it is a vector software. It does the basics of vectoring and design creation > > **Cons**: Not intuitive It take many mores steps to complete functions compared to paid alternatives > > I like it because it was free and we were a startup so overhead matters. At some point we outgrew our need and the free was no longer enough. Some of the more needed tasks too twice as long to dial in as again the paid alternatives ----- ### "Great Adobe Substitute For Free\!" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *24 November 2023* | Apparel & Fashion | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Inkscape has all the features I need to create my t-shirt designs for FREE. It's easier than Adobe \& has lots of tutorials on YouTube > > **Cons**: I like the whole platform\! No issues at all. ----- ### "Inkscape : Free and Formidable" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *27 April 2021* | Research | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Inkscape has an arsenal of formidable graphic design tools which allow me to generate graphics and schematics to support my research work. The ability to export and use these artwork across applications makes Inkscape an asset. > > **Cons**: The user interface and the ease-of-use is not the best. There is a steep learning curve for most users. > > I primarily use Inkscape for generating simple graphics as visual aid to my research work. For this role, Inkscape is possibly the best and only free open-source software in the market. ----- Page: 1 / 22\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ie/software/20550/inkscape-business-graphics-software?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ie/software/20550/inkscape-business-graphics-software) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
