Inkscape vs. Sketchbook

I would 100% recommend Inkscape to anyone starting out with graphic design or illustration, as it isn't that difficult to get the hang of on the first day of using it. I am not recommending Inkscape for beginners alone, even experts in the field can use Inkscape professionally as it cuts of the expense of needing to buy a paid graphic design software which provides almost the same features. Inkscape is also great for beginners because it can be treated like a stepping stone to move onto a paid graphic designing software like Adobe Illustrator, so Inkscape can be used to test the waters before making the leap. Inkscape and Illustrator are almost the same so there wont be any difficulty in switching later on.

• Can be tricky to get the hang of at first
• UI is not always naturally intuitive but generally it is good
• May require reading documentation and watching tutorials to skill up before using it efficiently

It is very good in general, but there are steps that I wish could be eliminated as they seem to be "duplicative".

It is free. Easy to install Easy and simple to use and master. I find it as the best solution to do simple things without spending much time loading the API and trying to find the menu necessary to do the job. It produces vector graphics which is very well suited to illustrate research papers.

• fast, efficient illustrations
• inexpensive (donation based) enough for a tiny business
• now can make custom labels for test products using our in-house printer
