Could VectorCraft actually be a serious alternative to Adobe Illustrator?

Is VectorCraft a serious alternative to Adobe Illustrator? After nearly 20 years of working with Illustrator, I decided to put ArtCraft's VectorCraft to the test — and I was genuinely surprised! In this first episode on the DC Prints YouTube channel, I download and install VectorCraft, explore its interface, and put its image tracing capabilities up against Adobe Illustrator using the same artwork. As someone who works in printing and graphic design every day, I need software that's fast, reliable and practical for real production work. *In this video:* Installing and launching VectorCraft First impressions of the interface and familiar shortcuts VectorCraft vs Illustrator image tracing Speed, usability and exporting Features I would like to see added My thoughts on whether VectorCraft has real potential VectorCraft isn't perfect yet. There are a few missing features and bugs, particularly around artboard measurements and scripting. But the speed, familiar workflow and promising image tracing results definitely caught my attention. *Have you tried VectorCraft yet?* Do you think it could become a genuine Illustrator alternative?
