Great for a Novice Designer!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy Canva is to use and that it is free. I think this is an excellent launch pad for anyone interested in graphic design or anyone who needs to create a graphic image.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search. When search for a particular element it just doesn't seem to be thorough and often times out. If the search worked better this product would be an excellent excellent option for those who can't afford or don't know how to use Adobe Software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I generally use Canva when I am lacking inspiration. I love their templates and easy access elements that make creating a design a breeze.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need a quick solution to design work this is an excellent option! They also have great tutorials on pairing fonts, improving layouts, selecting colors and others.

Just What I Needed for Social Media!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the easy drag and drop format and the ability to say what I want to use it for and they have a format for that already! There is a wide variety of backgrounds, icons, fonts, symbols and colors to choose from that are free and also a reasonably priced variety of even more if you need just the right icon. It is so easy to use, but it doesn't loo like I didn't know what I was doing! I also like that I can save the files to my computer when I'm done.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the site does have issues, but I haven't had many problems with it as of yet. I do wish that I could order things like business cards directly from the website itself. I guess that could be something they offer with a premium membership, but I don't know for certain.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I wanted to design a logo and make banners for social media and found GIMP to be too confusing for something I thought would be simple. Canva had everything I was wanting and allowed me to design a logo I love, put banners on my social media sites and design a business card!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Canva is a great resource for those who are just starting out, whether a small business or freelancing, that gives you the freedom to create what you need the way you want it without needing special skills or knowledge. I highly recommend it!
Easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
I love how quickly I can design imagery for social media. The drag and drop shapes and simple backgrounds are great- and the examples help me think of creative ways to make my social media posts more compelling.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that the graphics were more easily searchable. Additionally I wish that the custom colors weren't a paid level only option.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We primary use this to expand on data or quotes from articles that we could not otherwise share on twitter.
Awesome program
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to create something from a blank canvas but I can also use pre-made elements. It is user friendly, even with no background in design. I also like that I can make a design entirely free if I chose.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like that some items have to be paid for or have an upgraded account.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to create simple designs for any business or social media need. Able to create it for free which is important for a non profit.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a great product and recommend it for anyone looking for an easy way to create different designs.
Intuitive and beautiful!
What do you like best about the product?
I love Canva. It is, without a doubt, the most intuitive and accessible image editing program I've ever worked with. For quick, beautiful social shares and blog graphics, Canva wins, hands down.
What do you dislike about the product?
The filters and collage features leave something to be desired, so I still rely on Pixlr for those elements when I need them. The filters are limited and fake-looking and the collages are clunky and weird to work with. It's also a little frustrating that you have to upload each image you want to use into a database before importing it into the image you're creating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been able to create graphics for social media promotion and blog posts so much faster and with a much more professional polish than before. I've even used it to create ads with great results.
Great and easy tool for building your brand on social media!
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to use canva. I am not an design artist so this tool is a life saver! I think the average user can figure out canva rather quickly and the software has lots of options! I have taught a couple of non-tech people how to use Canva and they pick it up rather quickly. I also like the amount of pictures and ready made designs. Also, great customer service too!
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish some of the paid features were free. Also wish there were more font options available for the free version of the site. I don't currently use the paid version so I wish there were a few more free more options available for the free version of the site. Perhaps if there were more explanation as to why I might need the paid version and make it worth the monthly cost, I may consider upgrading.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
How to quickly grow our online presence. We have been working on a solution that allows a non-designer to produce designs that reflect our brand and can be used across all the different social media platforms. Using Canva to create visuals for our social media platforms has helped increase our reach!
Simple to use! Beautiful pictures and graphics in no time!
What do you like best about the product?
I use Canva every day! Sure, it's not as robust as photoshop, but when you know what you're doing, it saves so much time and can produce some stunning images. You can even save money because unless you need to get crazy with design work, you won't need to buy a photoshop license.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the saved product does not match what you see on the screen. I've never been able to figure out why. Sometimes text or objects just won't align in the finished product the way it does on the screen. This can cause some serious frustration. I also wish there were a few more features, like color sampling and seamless resizing. But, for a free product, Canva is a gift!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We save time and money and are able to create beautiful images that display nicely across social media and our blogs. These images help our brand look more polished and consistent and help us drive engagement online.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the free design school so that you get the most out of the tool. It's not as robust as photoshop, but it can do a lot and save you some time. All the free elements are free! Premium elements and photos are just $1 each, so pay attention to what you're using. You can also upload your own photos to use at any time. Save images as jpeg, png, and pdf.
Great tool
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the variety of templates, and the ability to make custom templates as I choose. There are a lot of great free backgrounds, photos, etc. Even though I don't typically use those backgrounds, I can see how useful they would be. I really appreciate that I can make an identical promotional ad for my gift shop and use it on multiple social media outlets.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I don't like about Canva is that, for all the empty templates they have, I seem to want one that doesn't exist. Making a page that isn't one of the default template grids is a bit tricky. I usually end up working within a given grid, and it looks great. If I could have a completely blank grid and drop in photos and text with complete control over their shape and size, I would love it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to quickly make very professional looking social media posts - for free! It has been a huge time saver, and helps me keep things streamlined across my different media channels. I use it a lot to make promotional ads for our gift shop, and I can easily and quickly make the same ad, formatted for three different social media outlets.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try it! It's pretty easy to get familiar with, and gives you a lot of options once you're comfortable navigating the system. There are also some very useful interactive tutorials that pop up the first few times you log in, and they make sure you are headed in the right direction. Once you learn to upload your own photos and find a font that works for you, you can make lots of ads easily and they look professional and consistent. There are additional options inside the system that you can purchase, but the freebies are typically more that you need already. It's free, it's easy, so give it a go.
Love designing graphics!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can go to canva and design a custom graphic in minutes that looks like I paid a designer hours to design. I love the style and choices.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that I can't search out a specific graphic that is free. When I type in an icon or a picture that I know canva has for free, it only brings up paid graphics or images.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am completely changing the face of how I advertise to students and families online and in print.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it and fall in love!
Impeccable Content Creation Tool
What do you like best about the product?
I love that this web app allows a user to save content branding colors and fonts. I also love that the web use is drag and drop and very easy when it comes to the learning curve.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the price for the professional version. For someone who is an entrepreneur it is a bit expensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving my needs for creating awesome visual content. Also, one major benefit I have realized is that there is an optimal business account that has substantial use abilities such as saving color branding.
