While many brands focus on maximizing profits and squeezing out every penny, Affinity chooses to do right by its customers with straightforward and simple purchase models. That's why their apps remain indispensable in my toolkit, and I feel a deep sense of loyalty toward their brand. Great job, team, and I think your 6-month model is brilliant. I wish you every success with it. > > **Cons**: Learning curve takes time and help files could be better. ----- ### "Great software especially if we consider its price" — 5.0/5 > **Vasilis** | *14 January 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It has a nice user interface and plenty of powerful features such as seamlessly switching between vector and raster graphics. > > **Cons**: I wish there was an Image Trace feature for converting png images to vector. > > My overall experience is great so far.
