Of course, there are lots of tools out there to help you with your need, but are they really the best? Today, we\u2019re going to be taking a lot at one of the most robust apps on the market to see if it really lives up to its hype. We\u2019re going to be reviewing Gravit Designer. Many have described it as an amazing alternative to Illustrator and Sketch, amazed by its multitude of features. But before we get more into the details that set <a href=\"https:\/\/webdesignledger.com\/reviews\/\">Gravit Designer<\/a> above many other designing tools, let&#8217;s find out more on our subject today.\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is <a href=\"https:\/\/gravit.io\/team\/\">Gravit Designer<\/a>?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you haven\u2019t already heard about it, Gravit Designer is a completely free software that gives users the power to create and design icons, presentations, illustrations, prints, apps, and even screen designs. With this program, you\u2019ll have access to a wide range of very powerful tools to help you leap over any obstacle you may come across.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-46022 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/webdesignledger.pub.network\/WDL\/8fd9ba8c-dgxzpqr-970x512.jpg\" alt=\"Gravit Designer\" width=\"970\" height=\"512\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 970px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 970\/512;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-46022\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/webdesignledger.pub.network\/WDL\/8fd9ba8c-dgxzpqr-970x512.jpg\" alt=\"Gravit Designer\" width=\"970\" height=\"512\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With an impressive toolset that includes UI design, icons, marketing tool graphics, concept art design, and animators, it\u2019s a wonder that this thing is free. To top it all off, it can run both as a desktop application and in-browser, and it runs smoothly on most operating systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Features<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A lot of these apps come with useless tools that they overcharge for, but Gravit Designer seems to be loaded down with surprisingly useful ones. Check them out:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Artboards<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Layers and symbols<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Booleans<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A knife tool<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Path graphs<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Very high export quality<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Text engine<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Grids, anchors, and auto-layers<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Multiple fills, effects, and blending modes<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This list is fairly comprehensive, but there are a few other features on the app that are worth checking out for yourself. Even with just the features listed above, Gravit Designer is nothing to shake a stick at.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-46021 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/webdesignledger.pub.network\/WDL\/8688c3c6-1506270348_gravit_designer__4-970x669.jpg\" alt=\"Gravit Designer\" width=\"970\" height=\"669\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 970px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 970\/669;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-46021\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/webdesignledger.pub.network\/WDL\/8688c3c6-1506270348_gravit_designer__4-970x669.jpg\" alt=\"Gravit Designer\" width=\"970\" height=\"669\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Price<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As I mentioned before, Gravit Designer is completely free and offers no upgrade packages. Everything that the app has to offer is 100% accessible by anyone that uses it. The reason price is included in this review is so that we can compare the prices of similar apps. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most apps similar to service and features like the ones Gravit Designer has to offer cost between $5 and $20 for the mobile versions and anywhere between $30 and $50 for the desktop application. Now, compare that to Gravit Designer\u2019s price tag of\u2026 well, free, and you can\u2019t beat it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In the words of\u00a0Alexander Adam, CEO of Gravit:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>If it will definitely remain free and it will never be crippled by the stupid freemium or whatever, then we could offer additional things for equipment that could be paid (since we also need to pay those server accounts) but the Designer will remain free since we want everyone can have access to a professional free design tool.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-46020 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/webdesignledger.pub.network\/WDL\/983019f4-unnamed.jpg\" alt=\"Gravit Designer\" width=\"640\" height=\"400\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 640px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 640\/400;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-46020\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/webdesignledger.pub.network\/WDL\/983019f4-unnamed.jpg\" alt=\"Gravit Designer\" width=\"640\" height=\"400\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">User Satisfaction<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the biggest deciding factors when purchasing a vector design tool is seeing how well it sits with other users. As of right now, there are very few, if any negative reviews on Gravit Designer. This is great news for anyone looking for a helpful tool. Combine that with the fact that it\u2019s completely free, and you have yourself a great app. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t get me wrong, there are a few reviews that list some cons to the app. Here are a few examples:<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You cannot export to most popular files. This means that you can\u2019t pick up where you left off if you decided to swap to another platform. This can cause massive delays if you need to switch things up.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The app changes constantly. With all the attention it\u2019s getting, there are almost constant updates to keep things fresh. This could be viewed as a negative or a positive, however, as it\u2019s always good to get refreshing updates.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Since it is free, it does often lack some of the power the other paid programs produce.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-46018 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/webdesignledger.pub.network\/WDL\/2fe0dcd8-fig14-gravit-design-tutorial-800w-opt.png\" alt=\"Gravit Designer\" width=\"800\" height=\"452\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/452;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-46018\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/webdesignledger.pub.network\/WDL\/2fe0dcd8-fig14-gravit-design-tutorial-800w-opt.png\" alt=\"Gravit Designer\" width=\"800\" height=\"452\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Again, for a free app, you really can\u2019t be too mad at the features Gravit Designer offers. Ignoring the features, the interface is very straightforward and easy to follow. It makes it difficult to get lost and allows you more time to focus on your designs. Depending on your needs, or if you\u2019re just starting out in the industry, Gravit Designer is definitely worth looking into.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Here are some honest opinions of people who have tried it and shared their experience with the world on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.g2crowd.com\/\">g2crowd<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"formatted-text\">I love Gravit Designer because it is a fantastic multiplatform application for vector design.<\/p>\n<p class=\"formatted-text\">It does not matter if we need to work with vector images, icons, if we want to build a website, a mobile application, or simply create presentations with art concepts.
