I'm still more into using SAI since I'm not used with all the features on CSP yet, but I'm planning to migrate to it very soon. There are tons of features which I haven't tried yet and I'm still in the middle of customizing the workspace and shortcuts for my needs.

The lines don't feel quite as responsive as in Paint Tool SAI though. I have already drawn one full page with it for one manga commission I'm working and I'm very happy with the program's functionality when it comes to panel layouts, margins, perspective rulers, speech bubbles, screentoning etc. I have very little bad to say about this program. Despite being easy to use, getting familiar with all the functions will take some time. Of course it's not quite as lightweight as SAI, so you will need a bit better hardware to run it. You can tweak nearly everything, such as hide tool options that you don't need, making the UI less cluttered and set how shortcuts affect each tool. That said, the user interface is very intuitive and the overall experience is close to SAI. It's very similar to Paint Tool SAI, just far more powerful. I suggest trying the trial version first.

And the best thing is that once you buy the license, it's yours forever ( though upgrading to next version may require new license). EXtended version has even more amazing features that makes page managing much more feasible and adds other useful and powerful options as well. The program is already considerably cheap, especially the PRO version which has great functionality for its price. That said, if you buy the new version, you get whopping savings if you act soon! Especially the PRO version should be very affordable for nearly anyone.Įxtremely. ( Upgrade from PRO to EX version, normally $169.00.
