CorelDRAW Essentials 2021 | Graphics Design Software for Occasional Users | Illustration, Layout, and Photo Editing [PC Disc]

This program doesn’t have the basics tools, that allowed you to draw. This version is useless, even for basics projects.

Dont waste your money. There is nothing essential about this. Doesnt even save as svg. Better off downloading Inkscape for free. Would refund if allowed. This should by all means just be a free download.

Not easy for a beginner to just pick up and learn my be a great program I just bought it to convert to files to svg images so I could carve them on my cnc but its quite complicated program for what I needed so a waste of money for me

The install of this item was not good. I had to contact Corel support and waste 10 days to get the CD uninstalled and download from their website, backup my files and system, and edit the registry and so on.

After last buying the software in 2008, I didnt want to shell out more money for a subscription but got this deal on Prime day for just $62. Working nice.

I bought this specifically because photo editing was listed in the description. Corel Photo Paint is the companion product that is specifically for that, so I expected to get THAT. Didnt. Corel says its not part of the product. I dont need Corel Draw Essentials. I already have a previous version of it. The photo editing part of the product description is deceptive. So, Im going to have to return the product, reluctantly.

Has everything most people need in a drawing program. Got it at a great price!

I like to do things with type, such as in circles, added to photos, etc.

piece of crap and will not credit difference to updgrade - beware this version sucks

I should have read the reviews but I trusted Corel after purchasing two previous home/ student versions. This thing has only the freehand line option and only one line editing tool. Don’t waste your money on it!
