Adobe Illustrator is a popular graphic design program to create logos, vectors, and more. The price, however, isn't very popular with everyone, especially if you're working on a small budget. You don't have to be a graphic designer to have the need for a design program, but it's nice to have options if you want one. These options can give you just about the same power and features, without the hefty price tag.
