Great for Quick & Simple Design Projects
What do you like best about the product?
I love all the layouts/templates that are premade and customizable for almost any project. It makes putting a graphic together really easy and the finished product looks professional.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, there have been quite a few bug issues with Canva in the time I've used it. There was a period where every design you downloaded came out jumbled and spaced wrong, and rendered the software unusable. I will say they have a great support team and user community, and that they are always working on improving stability and introducing new features. It's great for quick/easy projects, but not as powerful as Illustrater/Inkscape/Photoshop/GIMP for more detailed work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I primarily use it to create quick social media graphics for my clients. It's also good for making moodboards and flyers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There's no reason why you shouldn't try the free version out and see if it works for you. I upgraded to the business version to be able to upload my own fonts and separate designs into client folders. Another bonus of the Canva for work subscription is that you get to try out a lot of the new features. I've tried out their gif creator and their print service as a beta tester, and have been really impressed with both.

The best part is the ease of creating amazing and effective graphics. We can turn any of our staff loose in Canva and have them create great products!

Having multiple linked accounts can get pricey quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We realized that we now have easy ways to create readable, understandable, and fun communications. We have been able to better communicate big changes, our program's expectations, limitations of federal funding, and promote events easily. And, best best part? It is fun to use!
Love Canva
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, and offers a library of images to use some for a charge and some for free.

Without a paid account, you cannot resize images that you've created (this alone makes it worth it)

Helpful design tool
What do you like best about the product?
Canva makes it easy to create professional design pieces even if you're not a designer, and they have non-profit accounts that allow you to save logos & custom font selections.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the media storage set up. It's clunky to delete old media/images.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
You'll be surprised at the level of customization you're able to achieve with Canva.
Easy to use web based graphics software
What do you like best about the product?
Templates for a variety of topics and final output formats. An item created in 1 format, for example, a social media post can be resized to another format with one click.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search feature does not have a filter option. If i want to search for a clip art using a keyword for example school, I can not filter the results to only show the free graphics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating social media and email header graphics quickly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a good tool for creating quick graphics while maintaining a professional look.
Easy to use marketing material creation program
What do you like best about the product?
Canva has a wide variety of templates in place that you can use for free, then modify to suit your needs. It's extremely simple to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice if you could search for templates like you can search for images. If you search in the bar at the top, it only searches through the image database. There are hundreds of templates and you have to scroll through them to search.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We primarily use Canva to create eye-catching images that we can post on social media and our website. We also create posters, job announcements, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking to use this with a team and will need to easily organize a lot of images, upgrade to pro.
The simplest software for professional results
What do you like best about the product?
Canva is free and very simple to use. It is so intuitive that you can make a professional book cover in less than 5 minutes of work. You begin with an initial selected design specific for what you want to achieve (ebook, watppad book, social media, etc) and mddify it with the help of the free images and fonts and shapes provided by this website. You can find also some paid images, but you can use your own (free image). In 5 minutes everythis is ready to be published. Professional results with the simplest software.
Canva is very good and also free! You will like this free online software immediately and you will come to this site almost each week.

What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike is that for some images I have to pay. Yes they are great but not sufficient to pay for each around 1 USD. (Canva is very good because most of it it is free.) Although Canva has numerous features easy to use, it would be good to have some other free features like a transparent background.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Some of my ebook covers published on Amazon are made with Canva with very good results. I obtained professsinal ebook covers very easy.They sell very good on amazon. Canva is very good on what it is doing!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is the best free software to create ebook covers. It is very simple and you obtain professional results in just 5 minutes.
THE CANVA SOFTWARE HAS MADE MY DESIGNER LIFE MUCH EASIER
What do you like best about the product?
Design isn´t my main major, but I earn an additional income by creating designs for shirts, party and wedding invitations, funny logos for college packages and most things related to creative design: before, I had to use adobe illustrator and it took me a lot of time, but with Canva, I just need to drag and drop, add a few images through here and there, add some text, and presto! I have my designs ready to be sold!!! The most amazing thing is that I can do this literally within a few minutes :)
What do you dislike about the product?
There´s nothing I really dislike to be fair. I mean, they could decrease a bit the subscription price for premium users, but 12.95 each month is a fair price, that said, I would love the price to be lower.This way, many design students would be able to upgrade their subscriptions. Also, another minor thing I dislike about Canva is that sometimes the website and your designs may crash, but this doesn´t happen so often. I think that having said that, this software might help you get rid of illustartor or other junkie softwares.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving many problems with this software, for example: it´s saving me time to create shirt designs, it´s saving me time from creating images (because the software has many, many images ready to be used by the user, by just dragging and dropping). This means that you can solve your illustration, font and design problems with this amazing piece of software
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you´re like me, a designer who makes party invitations, shirts designs and package illustrations, you might find Canva an invaluable tool (if you´re really creative). I think that this amazing piece of software has everything you need to create professional designs for your party invitations, shirts, shoes, packages, in a record-time.
Transforming my business with Canva
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can spend 5 minutes to create an eye-catching, clean cut design when I'm in a pinch as well as work through their many customization tools and layouts to build complex works that fit the personality of my business. It gives me the ability to be consistent in the designs across company campaigns and projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can sometimes crash as well as some minor bugs that pop up from time to time (ex: freezing when cropping photos). It typically resolves itself after reopening the program though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating marketing materials that are all unique but have enough consistency to look professional. It is great to be able to design pieces that you know are going to integrate perfectly for any type of application such as Facebook versus a blog or printed poster.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When you are first using it, just experiment! Make up a pretend event or product just to get used to how all of the tools work before getting into serious projects. The layouts are great to start out with because you can still completely transform it - it just helps to not get stuck staring at a totally blank page.
