Great option for graphic design
Overall it has been a good experience using PaintTool SAI
PROSThe feature i like best on paint tool SAI is the user friendly interface, it is very easy to edit images using this software, it is much better than the microsoft paint that comes preinstalled on windows.
CONSThe only feature they can improve on is giving more editing options for images, other than that i did not find any issues using the software.

Benefits and struggles of Paintool SAI
Great variety of tools and modifiers to each allows you to customize your brushes, erasers, etc to your liking. Paintool SAI has a more lightweight feel compared to other painting softwares, allowing you to have a more fluid workflow
CONSLacks the variety of tools other softwares in the industry have. Its interface looks a little outdated, despite its tools being a good match against other softwares.
Reasons for switching to PaintTool SAI
Its one-time payment makes it a lot more affordable than the industry standard

An Introductory Software
I learned so much using this program, and it worked well with multiple drawing peripherals. But at it's current price point, I cannot recommend it over other options.
PROSThe basic tools in SAI are intuitive and easy to use out of the box. It is a great way to learn the basics of digital art.
CONSThe software has some clever tools and features, but isn't as robust as a program like Clip Studio Paint. Anymore, I'd recommend GIMP as an introductory software. GIMP's open source model really broadens the capabilities and versatility of an ever changing art scape.

The drawing software for digital artists.
PaintTool SAI is indeed a wonderful drawing software that assists its users in various ways, such as the line stabilizer feature, which allows for smooth drawing by reducing hand tremors.
PROSPaintTool SAI offers a variety of drawing tools that are highly favorable for illustrators and manga artists. It also supports layers, allowing users to combine or overlay elements without complexity.
CONSWhat I like least is perhaps the coloring tool, which, in my opinion, doesn't assist me much with my fillings or flat colors.

Intuitivo
Ho utilizzato questo software quando ancora ero uno studente e soprattutto quando mi sono approcciato per la prima volta al disegno digitale con tavoletta grafica e mi sono trovato benissimo
PROSIl software è molto semplice da utilizzare ed e’ perfetto anche per i principianti o studenti che si stanno approcciando al disegno per cartoni animati o fumetto
CONSUn po limitato dal punto di vista dei menu’ e tools

It's good
PaintTool SAI proved to be a safe ally, always allowing me to recover works etc. Not all softwares have this option and I find it really life-saving.
CONSI think PaintTool SAI isn't that permissive in fact on brushes compared to other softwares. Others allow more, but this one is kinda restrictive.
