Overall Satisfaction with Inkscape

Inkscape is used in my organisation within the IT services department and external relations department. Specifically I use Inkscape to create vector / SVG logos for our corporate and scientific systems. Inkscape addresses the need to be able to create vector based graphics for branding, allowing corporate and scientific systems (including externally accessible ones) to display SVG logos and branding so that they look professional due to perfect rendering.

  • Limitless potential with what you can create
  • Available on all major operating systems
  • Can be tricky to get the hang of at first
  • UI is not always naturally intuitive but generally it is good
  • May require reading documentation and watching tutorials to skill up before using it efficiently
  • Quite easy to use
  • Good documentation
  • Tutorials exist on social media
  • Produces excellent vector graphics
  • Free
  • It is free, so the return of investment is the cost of a commercial product plus whatever the value or what you create
  • Allows us to create branding SVG graphics without a cost
  • Helps us promote a brand that promotes confidence and quality
Inkscape is the standard if you want a free product that can produce high quality vector based graphics, there may be other products that can do it better but they are very very expensive. The experience you will get from expensive commercial products will be better but if you are needing to produce vector graphics now and again, or the cost of a product to use is a big factor - Inkscape is the best choice.

Inkscape is an excellent free product and its main focus is the creation of vector based graphics - it does this exceptionally well. You can produce high quality SVG graphics for branding (or any other use really) but you will have to put in some effort and research the product a bit to be able to get use it efficiently and get the most out of it. If you are looking to work on raster based graphics, GIMP is a better option.
