    LibreOffice Draw is a very simple drawing suite. It may be sufficient for many, but not sufficient to be declared an alternative to InkScape.

    LibreOffice draw is good for schemes, but not for what Inkscape does - Inkscape is a graphic design tool, not a scheme creator.

    GodSVG is not much like Inkscape - it's a very limited interface for editing svg code, but not really a tool for illustration, design or text. It seems like a nice tool, just not a good alternative to Inkscape.

    It does not have all the features that Inkscape has, but it is a much lighter weight free & open source alternative.
