It is a perfect suite of applications to finish presentations and create beautiful layouts for design.

Ease of use is a major factor in our choice for the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite. With intuitive interface terminologies, users are able to jump right into the applications with ease and confidence.
The ability to customize the Suite to fit your particular needs is a major strength of the CorelDRAW Graphics Suite. CorelDRAW customization abilities are endless and can turn the default Graphics Suite into a fully customized powerhouse application catered to a designer's specific wants and needs.
Just like any design program or suite, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone who doesn't do graphic design professionally. If you're not adept at learning a program or experience, it isn't a program you can just pick up and start using easily. Outside of the learning curve, it's a nice program with a decent user interface.
Overall, CorelDRAW meets all my needs as a researcher and allows me to create beautiful and clear graphics to illustrate the main ideas for publications. It does not lack any functionality for my needs; however, it has some bugs that impact productivity, such as the color drag and drop that sometimes stops working and needs restarting, and crashes, especially when working with large bitmaps.
I feel Corel is just as powerful as the Adobe suite. I started using Corel back when I worked for a government organization that was PC based (and at the time, you couldn't get the Adobe suite on PC). I found that Corel was just as powerful. Over time, you can now get the Adobe Suite for PC but Corel is a better price - which for a non-profit is very important. Of course, I am more comfortable with Corel because I have used it for so many years as well.
As a filmmaker and designer, I have evaluated and used a few similar products like Drawtify such as Canva, Adobe Illustrator CC, VistaCreate, and Pixelied. First of all, Drawtify is a great option if you're looking for a user-friendly and easy-to-use online design tool. It's got a lot of great features, and it's definitely worth checking out if you're in need of graphic design software. When compared to Canva, Drawtify is more advanced but offers lesser design tools. Canva is more suitable for creating social media graphics, posters, and flyers, whereas Drawtify is suitable for more advanced designs and animations. When compared to Adobe Illustrator CC, Drawtify is more budget-friendly and user-friendly. Illustrator is a professional graphic design software that offers advanced features such as vector art brushes, 3D effects, and more, but it's a paid software and requires a good knowledge of graphic design. VistaCreate and Pixelied are not as popular as the above-mentioned software, but they are also similar to Drawtify. They are also suitable for basic design tasks but Drawtify offers a more user-friendly interface and more features. In conclusion, Drawtify is a great option for filmmakers and designers like me, who are looking for a user-friendly, easy-to-use, and budget-friendly online design tool that offers more features than Canva and similar software. It's perfect for creating title cards, lower thirds, posters, flyers, and simple animations. It's also great for team projects as it has a real-time collaboration feature.
Ease of use reflects on less time to train new users, a positive impact in investment and productivity.
The practicality to make new designs results in less time needed to do them, again a positive impact.
The integration with other graphic programs could be better if needed to finish a rendering using the design made in Corel Draw it's needed to export in formats that don't carry all information and the process is not that simple.
