Inkscape Reviews & Product Details - Page 6

The most obvious upside of Inkscape is the price-point. As fully-functional free product with a wealth of features, it gives users the ability to develop skills in vector-graphic design without requiring any cash outlay. The online manual is extensive, and users can easily access a wealth of tutorials and help in forums and on YouTube. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Inkscape is not intuitive, and has a steep learning curve. It's difficult to do anything easily without reading the manual, or watching the extensive YouTube tutorials. Even experienced users will need to return to tutorials and forums again and again to remember how to accomplish tasks that ought to be simple. Options are not always laid out clearly in the UI, and UI elements themselves seem to change in unexpected ways. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Inkscape is, It is completely free to use and anyone can use it without paying any fees. It is compatible with all operating systems like Windows, Linux, and mac. It is a great alternative to Adobe Illustrator. I can make awesome SVG for e-commerce websites easily within a few minutes with the help of Inkscape. Inkscape's UI is very great and very easy to use. The learning material is also provided by them which is mentioned on their website, so anyone can start learning by downloading them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing I don't like most about Inkscape is, I can't export JPEG file, I can export PNG file only. There is a lack of features like an autosaving project when software is crashed, limited fonts and styles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's free and open, i no need any licence to use it for my business. I used it on Windows, Linux and Mac with the same simplicity.

I think that the function "vectorize bitmap" can be very helpful for made some vectors starting from an image or a photo.

You can find a lot of projects made in SVG format that is the native format of Inkscape.

If Inkscape will be developed in some bug or limitations will be a strong alternative to a professional suite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

You can't export a jpeg but only on png that is boring if you need to use it on web, as you know png got more properties than jpeg but is bigger.

You can't open a project with more than one pages, if you need to create a book o something with more than one page, you have to create a SVG file for each page.

Works only with RGB, needs CMYK implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's free yet it has pretty much everything you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I find most hard about Inkscape is the tool placement sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Firstly it's free and open-source to use of course, and it's super easy, not complicated like advanced vector editing softwares of the modern day. Easy to use with any operating system as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's hard to find one, It's not famous as adobe products and having tough time to explain what it is to colleagues. but it's not a downside and I believe it's room to develop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is really convenient to use Inkscape.All the tools are easily available on top of the UI and very smooth work can be done using this. Quality of the design is really cool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have faced some limitations while using this platform like some unsupported format. And few unwanted notations and lag in the process sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is my number one graphic design program for image tracing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you delete too often the program will automatically be closed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do like how familiar most companies are with inkscape. It has multiple uses and switches between programs easily, like blender or Microsoft expression. It is a good program, but there are others I just prefer over this one Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would have to say my biggest like with inkscape is there layout. It's not the most user-friendly if you don't know what you were jumping into. You need more than basic knowledge to begin using the program Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that this program is so feature-rich and free is fantastic! It can handle just about anything I want out of it. There may be some minor things that a paid competitor program does, but it's still a great program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like most programs, it can be a challenge to get past some learning curves of how to use all the functions correctly, but once you get past that, it is pretty easy to manage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the feature set that comes with Inkscape. It mirrors many of the tools that other expensive vector drawing applications have, but for absolutely free! The tools that allow users to cut, subtract, and add vector shapes together are exceptionally robust. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main issue with Inkscape, of course, is that it's not Adobe Illustrator. Many clients prefer to work with designers who use the gold standard of software, and as good as Inkscape is from a feature and usability point of view, it simply isn't Adobe Illustrator, and that's an issue for many. Having said that, from a features or usability perspective, Inkscape has no problems at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
