I decided to upgrade for the responsive web design feature which, for me, was worth the £79 upgrade price.
I've had to move away from using XDP for even simple static websites as clients require them to be responsive. For these simple sites I can now move back from coding responsive WordPress themes to XDP which saves me time and therefore money. I'll make back the £79 in less then 2 weeks. If I didn't use the web features of XDP then this would have been the first year where I stuck with the older version.
But yes, I am disappointed there was nothing more exciting on the 'drawing' side of XDP. How much effort does it take to bundle a third-party plugin? Hopefully Xara will see their upgrade sales dwindle and start adding features that existing users actually want.
