A horrible amount of functional and UX bugs
Pros
- Emulate real art material like paints, drawing materials, etc.
- Has a lot of different brushes and other art materials
- It has a set up that can initially test your system to analyze and enhance performance
Cons
- Way too many functional bugs, makes it hard to work with
- Bad UX and usability, too much unintuitive behavior, makes it particularly hard to work with
- Overall looks and behaves as if it was coded in the '90s, it really needs a complete UX overhaul
- Did I mention the many bugs yet? Yeah? I'll mention it again because it's bad
Return on Investment
- Waste of money
- Waste of time trying to work around all the bugs
- Waste of time trying to talk to customer service
