Built from the ground up over a five-year period, every feature, tool, panel and function has been developed with the needs of creative professionals at its core. With continuous innovation and development, the result is a ground-breaking application that will revolutionize how you work.
- Affinity is an established product with the possibility of growth backed by a company. While Inkscape is open-source software, updated by volunteers. For now, I'll stick with Affinity but I'd prefer to work on Inkscape if only it could make the same usability quality jump that Blender did with its 2.8 update.

- Free program with same functionality and updated looks. Workflow is more streamlined, according to some. Available in the browser as well as on the desktop, both portable and installer versions are available. Covers all the bases! Guest • Feb 2018 • 0 agrees and 3 disagrees
- Incredible app. High quality app. Completely Apple UI design, elegant and very simple to use. I really like it and it's free. niktesla • Feb 2018 • 3 agrees and 3 disagrees
- Nice app with better ui ! and better color theme Guest • Oct 2017 • 1 agrees and 1 disagrees
- It's free as Inkscape is which is very important so maintaining that quality is a must. (This excludes Adobe and other commercial alternatives). Less buggy than Inkscape and better UI. The UI is particularly better due to its dark theme, I'm not a fan of software that is bright and tend to code with a black background. ElTortuga • Dec 2017 • 4 agrees and 7 disagrees
- Much much better UI, once you find where to change color theme. Killy • Jun 2017 • 1 agrees and 1 disagrees
