    Inkscape vs CorelDRAW Graphics Suite Comments

    Similarily to GIMP vs Adobe Photoshop, once you get used to the differences, just about anything is possible. Keep in mind though that switching is always harder than just starting out with a piece of software. In other words, it's easier to use Inkskape if you've never started out with Coreldraw in the first place, and vice versa.

    Its not intuitive. Its like a new program of design, and that its hard to assimilate.
