Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

CorelDRAW Graphics Suite

  • Specific subscription prices not published on product page (shown as placeholder)
  • One-time purchase excludes many features, apps, and workflows available to subscribers
  • One-time purchase customers receive no ongoing support for future operating systems or technologies
  • AI credits are non-renewable under one-time purchase model

Docusaurus

  • Customisation past the config file assumes React knowledge, which not every docs team has
  • Build times grow noticeably on very large sites, particularly with many versions and locales
  • Major version upgrades have required real migration work rather than a dependency bump
  • It generates a static site, so anything dynamic — gated content, per-user docs — needs a separate solution
