Great alternative to the pricier design softwares
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I have a whole catalog of layouts/designs to choose from, it's a huge time-saver for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were filters available when searching keywords so I can really narrow down the search results.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
On the occasion that I need to create graphics for social media posts, I can quickly do so using Canva...for free!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're willing to pay for this software you will certainly get more out of it. However, the free version has served my needs!
This app makes making graphics so easy!
What do you like best about the product?
I have used Photoshop, InDesign, and Illustrator for years, but sometimes I just need a quick graphic. It makes life easy—I don't have to look up any image sizes, there are creative templates that I can tweak or that inspire me to make my own, and the typefaces and stock images are updated frequently so they don't look tired or cliche.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not quite enough default options, and the fact that so much of the stock vectors are paid for. I can typically track down a free one on a separate site, but it would be much easier if I could have a boolean search. I understand that they have a bottom line, so it's not likely, but that aspect of creating graphics is the only slow part of pulling something together in Canva. I also wish that standard keyboard commands and alignment features were available.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am continually putting up Facebook graphics that have a short expiration date. I don't want to spend time fiddling with the exact alignment and sizing when the next day I'll have to create something else. Because this social media is not the primary goal of my job, it makes it easy for me to fit it in without sacrificing quality. I also benefit from brand consistency in that I can save my logos, typefaces and colors in one place to ensure that all of our content is cohesive and coordinated.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is great for anyone that does not have any design experience as well as for those that have design experience but limited time—it's a quick way to make a great graphic and has features that improve the brand itself and create that consistency.
I tell everyone I know about Canva
What do you like best about the product?
I'm not a graphic designer--but it's part of my job. Canva allows me to get work done quickly and create beautiful graphics for print, email, and digital signage.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't work well on Safari sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My company doesn't have to train me to use paid graphics software. It's so so easy to use.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get the paid version--it's worth the transparent downloads and ability to upload brand fonts.
New to Canva

Considers that the template and choices are limited and generic but the product works wells and is very easy to use. The ability to create something that can readily be use across many platforms is why Canve stands out.
Canva is awesome!

Canva is easy and is a dream for an independent business owner who doesn't have a degree in graphic design or has any knowledge at all in Photoshop.

I honestly can't think of a thing I dislike. I wish the branding fonts could be free.

Branding
Canva: Free Graphic Design Tool Will Make You Feel Like a Pro
What do you like best about the product?
I love the simple, tasteful layouts of the design templates and the wide variety of publicity platforms for design (social media, resumes, infographics etc.). It makes anyone feel like they can tackle creating their own design for promotional purposes, it is very user friendly, and every time I log on, there are always new templates added to the line-up.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you have anything more than a basic understanding of Microsoft Publisher or any Adobe or other design products, the editing features on Canva may frustrate a more experienced designer. Canva really streamlines the design process, so starting from scratch with a design or attempting to modify a templates' overall design may be a challenge. For quick, simple but visually appealing designs, Canva is perfect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has helped me gain confidence in testing out my own designs, and has helped me teach other people in my office about the basics of designing flyers or social media images. I have realized that it is very user friendly, and leaves an impression with its eye-catching designs. I can quickly and easily respond to feedback on my designs with the online format, and the variety of downloadable file types makes converting my designs a simple process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have little experience, this is the program for you. Consider starting with Canva for simple mock-ups of designs if you have more experience, then see if you can add more detail later. Make recommendations to Canva about other templates they could provide. I think adding a policy brief section would be extremely helpful.
Canva is the BEST
What do you like best about the product?
Canva is easy to use and it allows me to make professional, quality images that are shareable for social media. I like the large variety of templates, fonts, and pictures.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that there is a limit on photo storage. Sometimes there are glitches with the program and some of my projects turn white and I cant see anything. Im not really sure why.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me finish my design work in a timely manner. I like the user-friendliness of this website. They are constantly updating to add new templates or illustrations to add.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think Canva is a great tool for anyone in the marketing field, especially to those who are not savy with graphic design. Its nice that it offers vectored logos if you use the paid version.
Love Canva
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ease of designing different projects. The templates are great and quick to pull onto your space. I love that there are many different fonts and settings that you can adjust, like spacing of your text, and moving things around where you want.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish their were more free graphics to download - seems like all the good ones are the ones you have to pay for.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm using Canva to build web ads, flyers, logos, etc. I normally use InDesign, but sometimes it easier to use Canva. I love that there are many different social media templates that are already sized and ready to go for what we need to do.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Upload your own images so you don't have to pay for pictures/graphics if possible
