It's well suited for projects that rely heavily on vector graphics, like logo design, icon sets, and any branding work where scalability is required. I've also used it for things like social media assets and print layouts. So to have branding consistency across formats within one file. The one-time purchase is a big plus, especially for small studios or freelancers who dont have a large software budget. It's not ideal for if you're working in a team that relies heavily on Adobe Creative Cloud for collaboration.
Coming from Photoshop and Illustrator, the transition was pretty smooth and most tasks translates well. There was a bit of a learning curve with certain tasks, like masking images, but nothing too steep. The align tools are excellent and the use of personas (especially the Export persona) adds a lot of functionality when exporting slices or working with different formats. The interface is user friendly with frequently used tools easily available
I have not had much opportunity to go directly to support, but the training modules that are employed by the company are fantastic. I also find that if I need to understand something, there is always another user ready and willing to share their secrets. As this tool becomes more accepted local communities will also start to organize
The product appears to be just as powerful for what I need. Affinity is easier to use, and the results I get are phenomenal. The tools are inexpensive, so my colleagues can also purchase them to use with me. Right now, I am a pleased and excited Affinity user. Also, I have more in my pocket to spend on other tools.
