The digital world was opened up by Corel Website Creator, a website design application with a Site Wizard that made it easier than ever to design websites. This gave designers full control of their brushstrokes, unlocking full creative potential. The software was upgraded to keep up with the available hardware, so CorelDRAW X8 introduced the ability to switch between a desktop and a touchscreen setup, as well as support for pressure-sensitive styluses and devices. The RAW image editing of Corel PHOTO-PAINT X8 was enhanced by the introduction of the Healing Clone tool to let designers refine photos even further, and the Straighten Image dialog box which was designed to correct perspective distortions. Brochures, web graphics, logos, social media ads could all be created quickly and easily thanks to the enhanced intuitive workflow of CorelDRAW X8.

It was software introduced to the current digital world, with advanced support for Windows 10, multi-monitor viewing and 4K displays to cater for professional designers and enthusiasts. March 2016 let designers upgrade their workflows once more, with the use of CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X8.
