Every app has something to offer. Affinity Designer is a great alternative to the high price and usage limitation of Adobe apps and Clip Studio's convoluted pricing/installation pricing.

Chose Affinity Designer
First, Affinity has a much more attractive licensing model for users: Buy it once, use it forever. That's great and means one less recurring cost for a company. But I can go further, and as I've mentioned in other questions, Affinity has a very refined and polished interface, …

Honestly because it was around $70 for the entire suite when I bought V2 a few years ago before being acquired by Canva. I really wanted the flexibility of full featured apps on iPad.

Chose Affinity Designer
Affinity Designer stacks up really well against Illustrator, especially for the kind of work I do. While Illustrator might have more niche features that Affinity does not but It does covers the core functionality I need for vector design. And without the ongoing subscription …

For graphic design work, it’s certainly the best that Affinity Designer has to offer. It can compete very well with its competitors and offers a very polished and stable interface for most uses. I’d say it doesn’t do as well with rasterizations and some types of advanced applications when working with vectors, and it lacks some AI integrations, something that’s a hot topic right now.

I have not had much opportunity to go directly to support, but the training modules that are employed by the company are fantastic. I also find that if I need to understand something, there is always another user ready and willing to share their secrets. As this tool becomes more accepted local communities will also start to organize
