"inkscape is a very usefull vector graphics software for those who do not afford adobe illustrator"
What do you like best about Inkscape?

The most liked thing about Inkscape is it's free and opensourse.For me as a student who is passionate about vector graphics and all it's not possible to buy any subscription based software, in that scenario inkscape is a life saver. also it offers nearly all the features which are offered by main stream software like adobe illustrator. Since it's very light so i can run on low spec pc also.it's also very easy to install .I made a great improvement in graphic design through this app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inkscape?

even though it's a very good software i also encounter some missings. since i watch tutorials and do stuff in graphics, majority of the tutors use illustrator and some most useful and used tool are missing in this app. the main tool is shape building tool . it has boolean tools but shape building tool is more efficient way for complex shapes. another one missing is blend tool, which blends two shapes by making a path.it also lacks 3D,prespective grid,image trace(it has bitmap) . the other but not a major thing is, now is AI era and most companies already implemented ai. it will be good to see AI also in inkscape Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Great Free Tool for Beginners in Vector Design"
What do you like best about Inkscape?

I like that Inkscape is completely free and still gives me access to powerful tools for vector graphics. It’s great for creating logos, icons, and illustrations without needing expensive software. The interface has a lot of familiar tools, so even as a beginner, I can figure out how to use shapes, colors, and text to make designs. I also like that there are many tutorials online, which makes it easier to learn step by step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inkscape?

Sometimes it feels a little slow, especially when I work with larger files. The number of options in the menus can be overwhelming at first, and it takes time to understand where everything is. Also, compared to paid software like Adobe Illustrator, some features feel less polished or harder to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing Software"
What do you like best about Inkscape?

Powerful vector tools: Allows you to create and edit shapes, paths, and text with precision.

Compatibility with various formats: Supports SVG, PDF, EPS, PNG, and others.

Free and open source: No costs and with constant updates from the community.

Detailed control: Allows manipulation of nodes, layers, and gradients with a high level of customization.

Ideal for illustrations and logos: Great for creating scalable vector art without loss of quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inkscape?

Although Inkscape is a powerful tool, it has some limitations that can be bothersome:

Less intuitive interface: It can be a bit complex for beginners, with many hidden menus and options.

Performance on large files: It can become slow or crash when handling very complex or detailed projects.

Limited resources for professional printing: It does not offer advanced support for high-precision CMYK colors, which can be an issue in printed graphic materials.

Slower updates: Although it is updated by the community, new features take longer to be implemented compared to paid software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Accessible creativity - practical solutions with Inkscape"
What do you like best about Inkscape?

Even without being an expert in illustration or graphic design the ease of use of Inkscape allows me to tackle projects, from diagrams to charming visual materials; I like the template system because they can be reused, I also like its compatibility with various extensions and the Bezier curves tool with which I can copy any shape quickly and then modify them to my liking, either to schematize processes or customize educational graphics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inkscape?

Almost any uncertainty I've had, I've solved with their digital resources such as tutorials, forums and step-by-step guides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easiest to use editor for the price of $0"
What do you like best about Inkscape?

It's really easy to use. The interface is a bit dated, but it works. We use it for our logos and other graphics for marketing and it's fantastic. It took just a couple of youtube tutorials to implement the software and start making changes to the graphics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Inkscape?

There's not much support because it's a free software and the online forums are not as helpful as I would want them to be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
