And along with designing, we can also edit photos in Corel. > > My experience so far on this software has been very constructive, I hope its interface can become more user friendly in the future. ----- ### "Best Graphic Designing Tool" — 5.0/5 > **David** | *20 September 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Corel draw is on of the most user friendly software but yet powerful graphic design software's, most or all the tools needed like color pallets, pen tools, shapes, cropping tools, rulers and measurements plus many more tools are carefully placed on the screen so that I do not have to start looking for tools within the software menus or submenus while working, so in short its very convenient. > > **Cons**: In order to edit images in Corel Draw it has to load Corel paint and now you have two software's for one simple edit, wasting both time and computer resources, that is processing power and RAM. > > All in all Corel was made with graphic designers in mind, all tools are easily accessible with easy to remember shortcuts too, the ability to drag and edit any object whether in curves, BMP, JPEG or text makes working within this software effortless. ----- ### "CorelDraw Graphics Suite a Creative Powerhouse" — 5.0/5 > **Robin** | *2 November 2023* | Graphic Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: If you want vector graphic and image editing functionality second to none, then CorelDraw Graphics Suite is the wise and natural choice. With its fast and friendly ease of use, theres not an image that cant be realised in this, my Graphic Design software of choice for 30 years. Once you become familiar with its wide range of capabilities, the sense of empowerment and satisfaction it provides keeps you in that creative flowstate until project completion. > > **Cons**: I cant think of anything which is lacking in CorelDraw, as a Graphic Designer, it does everything I need. > > Simply, if you you want to create any graphic, from a simple flyer to complex vector illustrations, or edit/manipulate photographs or create raster graphics from scratch, then I cant recommend CoreDraw highly enough. I have never had an occasion where I have been unable to realise whats in my imagination, thanks to CorelDraw. ----- ### "Best software for 2d designer or illustrator" — 4.0/5 > **Dhaval** | *21 September 2022* | Luxury Goods & Jewelry | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like mostly the ease of use of this software and very light on Desktop/Laptop to work on. tools are easily accessible work on bigger canvases and can handle big sizes like it's nothing, Overall a tool that can do all the things which a graphic designer requires and is important for them to showcase their work > > **Cons**: Fewer features for image editing, layer panel can be improved, can have blending modes in the layers panel. > > Overall it's a great tool for designers with a lot of possibilities. ----- ### "Explore CorelDraw" — 5.0/5 > **JAZE** | *26 August 2021* | Architecture & Planning | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: If you are a graphics professional looking for a powerful solution to boost your creativity, then look no further than the new CorelDRAW 2021 Graphics Suite. It amplifies the design process by giving you advanced illustrations and superb photo editing features that help you achieve nothing less than a masterpiece every time. The software comes with a versatility that will satisfy any creative need. It is an all-in-one graphic design suite for vector illustration, page layout, photo editing, font management and so much more. > > **Cons**: I was not able to find any cons about the software, I tried so hard to see were the faults were but till this day, I have been nothing but pleased with it. > > My creative juices are constantly flowing when I'm using this software, I just made a massive fashion catalog in a span of one week because the software reduces all the monotonous tasks I usually have to deal with to a minimal. ----- Page: 1 / 62\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/222307/coreldraw?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/222307/coreldraw) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
