Make what you need, quickly and easily
What do you like best about the product?
Similar tools can be overwhelming for those of us not trained in image editing, but not Canva. Canva's interface is simple and intuitive. Their support team was helpful and their blog is full of great tips and tricks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've had Canva or the browser hiccup and I've lost some work. But that's the downside to web apps and is certainly a small downside to all the work I've done with Canva.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've been able to pump up graphics for our blog and social media accounts.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend this especially for "citizen editors" those of us without formal training who still need to make quality, personalized images for blogs and social media.
Marketing Event Manager

Love Canva
What do you like best about the product?
It's extremely easy to you, you can play around with different designs, share out your designs and get input from your team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the system does freeze and I will sometimes lose the work that has been created, but rarely does that happen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to create graphics in the moment is extremely helpful. Working in social media you need to be able to jump on to something really quickly and not always do we have the time to sit and send something over to our creative department. Canva lets you design quickly, download, and post up to your channels.

Servers sometimes get overloaded and designs stop saving.

Social Media design assets have a super quick turnaround that don't require going through an agency or brand partners. It also has a large library of free stock images which also eliminates are large cost that is usually required by stock image sites.

If you are new, do the tutorials and learning materials. They are incredibly useful when learning how to navigate the program and all of its features.

Canva is easy to use and has amazing design templates to help my business.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to drag and drop, to create a theme, and the ability to export to pdf. I was able to create a unique syllabus for my students this semester and I plan on using it to create more amazing resources for my classroom next year. It has benefited my business as well as peaked the interest in lessons for my students. I did the trial for the premium package, and I love the ability to export with a transparent background. I created my business logo with Canva and the ability to easily download it as a pdf has left me the option to create different versions of my logo to add to my blog, products, and videos.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a larger selection of designs that continue to be added for the free option. The design tools that I need, like clipart, aren't always available, so I have to upload my own vectors from time to time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am better at designing to promote my business on social media. The designs gain a lot of attention from users. Canva has changed the way that I create materials for my classroom and business. I really enjoy being able to create resources for my students that engage them and make them want to complete assignments.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think that the premium option is worth it if you have a business, but the free option is incredible for all the design options that it gives you.
Excellent online design software
What do you like best about the product?
I like that coming from advanced design program like Illustrator I did not miss any basic features. Very inuitive to use and different enough so I was not stuck in use pattern of Illustrator. (It is hard to use gimp :P)
What do you dislike about the product?
The only minus is that you have to work online. So with poor wifi it is hard to upload bigger images.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating beautiful and unique information and visual materials for social media and website.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I still use Illustrator but for quicker projects that do not need to be 100% original looking I sue templates in Canva.
Feel like a graphic designer
What do you like best about the product?
Canva allows those who may not be graphically gifted to easily design marketing material with customization and drag and drop features. The program provides many templates and layouts that make designing a charm. From Facebook posts, posters, and website graphics, Canva has it covered. There are wonderful stock photos and design examples provided that hep with inspiration.
What do you dislike about the product?
My only complaint with Canva is the mixture of paid and unpaid content. I would suggest that the paid content is separated in the interface to lessen frustration. I've had clients create a design without realized that they have chosen content that costs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Small businesses who cannot afford a graphic designer or Adobe Suite have access to design tools through Canva. It provides them a way to create in-store posters and social media content. My clients can easily create beautiful designs and documents.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If a graphic designer or Adobe Suite aren't in your budget, Canva is a great option.
Best Free Design Program

Learning curve, but nice designs
What do you like best about the product?
I very much enjoy the premade templates and designs Canva makes available to you, and that there are new templates being added everyday. The designs look professional and fun, conveys a wide variety of purposes. I appreciate the variety of preset sizes for online templates, they make it much easier where you don't have to go and look up exact dimensions.
What do you dislike about the product?
The monthly subscription is expensive considering many of the templates are not user friendly for editing and making your own. There are occasional hiccups with the software with downloading completed works, but it hasn't been too big of a deal if you have patience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I appreciate being able to make professional looking social media posts and posters, it makes it look like I spent much more time and money on it than I did.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't try to stay free. It's pricey, but the premium benefits make a big difference.
