Content Creators' Secret Weapon

What do you like best about the product?
I've used Canva so often that I now recognise the designs when I see them being used across the web. I'm not the only one who's fascinated by the ease and speed of creating designs with this amazing bit of SaaS kit. It's quick and easy to use, and offers such a plethora of design options that its almost replaced our use of Photoshop and The Gimp (at least when it comes to our own websites and blogs, though not our clients).
What do you dislike about the product?
Can't really use it for print work, only online graphics - which thankfully form the vast majority of our work - as it can't handle CMYK, nor high-res output. PDF downloads don't really cut it as far as I'm concerned when it comes to print work; I need some decent .TIFFs.

I've been using the free accounts, so the things that I dislike I know can be resolved by going for the paid alternative. Then I'll be able to save designs for re-use in different sizes, and I'll be able to set up more folders and save more corporate colours and designs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed a way to quickly knock out designs and create attractive graphics for clients' websites and proposal documentation without having to crank up Photoshop every 10 minutes (sorry Photoshop; I love you, but you're bulky and slow in comparison!)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're working with an agency, you really should set up the paid version so that all of the members of your team can share design specs like the logos, colours and sizing of your key designs.


    Computer Software

The easiest way to produce visuals

  • August 16, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
So I use expensive software on my computer for design purposes but at times I just want things quick and easy. So when I found canva I was very skeptical but it won me over. I love using this so much I tell all my design friends about it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that the app can't upload your fonts. That's the only problem I have with it. I use the paid canva and I have tons of fonts that I like to use specific for my brand but I can't with the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being consistent with my visiuals across my social media accounts
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just sign up.

I'm able to quickly and easily make graphics for my social media and email marketing.

I like how easy to use Canva is and how it makes graphics looks very professional.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some features that are a bit confusing and could be more user friendly.

The business problem I use to solve Canva is how to have something look very professional without getting a professional graphic designer to use it.

I have been able to easily design and use great marketing materials from Canva. I use a lot to produce graphics for my Facebook posts and my e-commerce website.

Buying premium graphics is not too expensive but you bills could skyrocket especially if you have to bu buying graphics all the time.

Unique program!

  • August 09, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to use and create cards that look like they were done by a designer. Sometimes we have small projects where we want to design a Valentine or thank you card that doesn't need to go to a printer/designer but needs to be more than what we are capable of. This program makes it possible for us to produce sleek, professional looking pieces without having to coordinate or pay for a professional designer.I love that you can upload your brand elements directly to your account so that everything you create is appropriate for your audience and branding scheme.
What do you dislike about the product?
It took a little bit to get used to the layout of the home screen. I did have some difficulty in creating different types of cards. When I tried to make a folding card, I would create my design and the program would only allow me to print it as a postcard. The more time I spent working in the program, the easier it became.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to save money on smaller designed pieces by creating them in house. For more last-minute projects, we are also able to get a simple design together and printed on a faster timeline than had we sent it off to a professional designer.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't forget to sign up for a nonprofit account if you are eligible. This will provide you with free features outside of the standard free features. The support resources for canva are great and the employees are extremely responsive and helpful. Definitely add people to your account so that you can all access your projects and learn the software together.

The best tool for image editing ever!

  • August 09, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Canva is very easy to handle and working with this tool is really fun. I decided on the premium version a while ago, as it offers significantly more possibilities than the free version. I would almost claim that there is no better way to quickly and effectively create images and graphics. The developers are always up to date and new features are constantly being introduced. I think the Canva team is doing a very good job. Additionally, the Canva team regularly publishes valuable blog posts with helpful tips and tricks, for example, how different colors harmonize with each other. Similarly, various fonts do not match each other, and here the Canva team also provides valuable tips and suggestions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only drawback is that the monthly fee cannot be offset with a standing order or PayPal. I find that very unfortunate because not everyone has the opportunity to get a Visa Card. The developers of Canva should perhaps reconsider the payment options. This would certainly lead to even more users taking advantage of the Premium version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I edit all my blog posts and all graphics with Canva, and I can also access the existing graphics stored in my account at any time. Here, I have already been able to implement many of my ideas and will continue to do so. It might be desirable to have an affiliate program, as I have already invited many of my contacts and customers to Canva, who are also completely enthusiastic about this tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The best tool for image editing ever! I can recommend it to anyone who wants to edit their images and graphics professionally.
