Affinity CEO Ashley Hewson says: “More people than ever are talking about the different creative software options available. And every day thousands more designers, artists and photographers take the decision to move to Affinity, joining the millions who already trust our software for their everyday professional workflow over the last ten years.
“One of the things we hear from potential customers is that they would value having an extended period to run Affinity alongside their existing software, to get used to the differences and adapt their working methods.
“So we’re saying ‘try everything and pay nothing’ because we understand making a change can be a big step, particularly for busy professionals.
