Can I switch from Wacom to XP-Pen without losing productivity?

Expect a 1-2 week adjustment period for pen feel and shortcut key positions. Most users fully adapt within a month. Completely uninstall Wacom drivers before installing XP-Pen drivers to avoid conflicts.

Are Wacom alternative pens compatible with Wacom tablets?

No. XP-Pen, HUION, and Xencelabs pens use proprietary EMR technology that is not cross-compatible with Wacom tablets or with each other.
