With standard CPU-based hosting (no GPU acceleration), the experience degrades quickly:

If Corel officially certifies GPU-accelerated RDP with pen tablets in a future update, this rating could jump to 4.5 stars. For now, test thoroughly before migrating your team.

On a well-provisioned host (8+ vCPUs, 16+ GB RAM, GPU passthrough or vGPU), CorelDRAW 2025 runs surprisingly smoothly. Vector redraw, node editing, and even the new AI-powered PowerTRACE (which now runs locally) feel responsive — provided the network latency is under 40ms.
