Likelihood to Recommend Infogram is perfect for creating engaging and professional-looking infographics, data visualizations, and social media content with no technical knowledge required. I have worked with NGOs with no technical or design staff that need to get their message out there or raise awareness about something. Infogram is easy and quick to use and the results look great. Infogram is not heavyweight data visualization software, it's best for summarizing and explaining the results of data analysis to an audience or breaking down complex concepts to make them understandable to the general public.
Read full review I would 100% recommend Inkscape to anyone starting out with graphic design or illustration, as it isn't that difficult to get the hang of on the first day of using it. I am not recommending Inkscape for beginners alone, even experts in the field can use Inkscape professionally as it cuts of the expense of needing to buy a paid graphic design software which provides almost the same features. Inkscape is also great for beginners because it can be treated like a stepping stone to move onto a paid graphic designing software like
Adobe Illustrator , so Inkscape can be used to test the waters before making the leap. Inkscape and Illustrator are almost the same so there wont be any difficulty in switching later on.

Some graphs could have more features to change their appearance (but perhaps then it wouldn’t be as simple) Should have a better way to copy and paste to another app Read full review startup screen could use close/minimize buttons Read full review Support Rating I have personally always had quick, friendly, and helpful responses from the Infogram team.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Infogram's most unique strength is its focus on infographics, providing a great number of templates and at the same time connecting such graphics with data sources.
Prezi is great for presentation, but it provides static infographics. Illustrator and Photoshop have some possible ways to integrate data into their graphics, but they are rudimentary compared to Infogram's abilities. Despite the huge power of Photoshop and Illustrator for creating specific images, Infogram is easier and more powerful in conveying data, making it the best option for infographics.
Read full review Adobe Illustrator is also used in our company sometimes however, Inkscape is used most considering the fact that it is completely free while
Adobe Illustrator has to be bought through monthly/annual subscriptions that are expensive. For that reason we always opt for Inkscape. Not only is it a free software, but it includes almost all the features and tools that
Adobe Illustrator offers, even though there might be some tools missing here and there, for businesses whose main focus isn't graphic design, Inkscape is the way to go. However if Graphic design or illustration is the only or the main factor of your business, I would suggest going for the investment and getting
Adobe Illustrator .
Read full review Return on Investment Has a free user option and it is faster and easier to build great graphical graphs. Now I don’t have to ask design guys to make me a fancier graph for a presentation. After the first graphs are made I can reuse them for the next month's presentation.
