What you would be giving up
Gravit Designer is most often brought in for logo design, vector illustration, icon design, web graphics. Anything replacing it has to cover the ones you actually depend on, and a cheaper tool that misses one of them is not cheaper.
Two things this page cannot settle. It compares on price, model, tier count and rating, because those are the fields the category listing carries, feature-level differences need both full records, which is what the head-to-head pages load. And the ratings are third-party aggregates imported with each entry rather than reviews written here, so a 0.2 difference between two tools is noise rather than a finding.
If Gravit Designer is broadly right and the question is cost, the Gravit Designer pricing breakdown covers every tier and what each one adds. If you want the whole field rather than a shortlist, the Design Tools category lists everything the directory holds, and best design tools tools ranks them.
Gravit Designer runs on windows, macos, linux, web. Platform coverage is not carried on the category listing for the alternatives, so it is one more thing to check on each head-to-head page rather than here.
