"OpenOffice Draw is a really practical app "
4/5
What do you like best about OpenOffice Draw?

I love how quick and easy I can create three-dimensional figures with this program. in my opinion it is easier to create figures in this program than in Photo shop to be honest.

its simplicity make this program shine, once you check a couple of tutorial you are good to go and let you creativity goes wild. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenOffice Draw?

I think the layout of this program is the only problem I have so far. It really looks like a Windows 98 program, although I can not be too critical since this program is free. but I feel that I had to point out this problem because at some point clients prefer that the designer works with the most complex program to create their projects, although most of the time it will be the same outcome if I work with Photoshop or OpenOffice draw. That's why I think that the design of this program takes a lot of credibility since it looks like Paint from 1998

The other thing that I do not like about this program is due to its simplicity. I feel that I can not find another practical use beside to create figures, draw something or create a logo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

3.5/5
What do you like best about OpenOffice Draw?

My favorite thing is that it is free.

OpenOffice Draw software implements opensource philosophy, all documents import / export are stable and clear, meet open document standards, cross-platform, compatibility.

You can export in many different formats like GIF, JPEG, PNG , TIFF etc

You can add textures, lights , images.

You can use what you create with almost every others software, so have a good compatibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about OpenOffice Draw?

Small learning curve. To be expected. Very easy if you've had any experience with graphics programs.

However, it must be emphasized that the program delivers 95-98% of what the casual user would require. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
