Best Free Resource For Marketing

  • January 13, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Canva is an amazing free program. It allows me to make very sharp, professional marketing images that look like they were made by a credited graphic designer without spending any money. There are hundreds of free images, layouts, and elements to add to make the image whatever you need it to be, whether an announcement, invitation, or eye-catching ad. There is a great variety of fonts, and everything is so customizable and easy to use. There is no learning curve with Canva, you can just go!
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the "snap" feature gets annoying and I always forget how to turn it off. Also, from time to time, when I export an image, text positioning will shift.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is our #1 resource for making social media images to advertise our business and our products. It helps us to get the word out about what we do in an eye-catching way that makes people click to our website!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You won't regret it and it's free to try!

Great For Those That Are Creatively Challenged (Like Me)

  • January 13, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love that there are templates and examples for you to pull ideas from. This is immensely helpful for someone like myself that struggles with creating things.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that there are some features you have to pay for that you'd think should be included for free. Things like resizing images and adding a transparent background should be included in the basic version. Those are hardly "premium" features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is a huge time saver and makes projects a little more streamlined. The sharing functionality is also nice for working on things as a team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're wanting complex photo editing tools & features, look elsewhere. But this is great for the non-graphic-designer that wants to try and fool others into thinking they came up with neat ideas on their own.

Faster way to design social media posts

  • January 13, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Canva makes it quick and easy to design social media posts. It's a huge time-saver. With the free version, you can upload your own images and designs. Pay to include your branded fonts.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that uploading fonts was easier. Also, I'm unpersuaded that it's helpful for infographics (I use InDesign for that).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I need an efficient way to post content online. Canva saves me time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you plan on using Canvas-Clothed frequently, you'll want to pay for the full version.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing. I love everything about Canva. I always recommend it to all my friends.

Event and social media posts are made so much easier and efficiently!

Canva, a Social Media Manager's Best Friend, if it's up.

  • January 10, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Templates on Canva are constantly updating, creating fresh, simple designs quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
The service sometimes has server issues - which can cause outages that mean lots of headache if you don't have a dedicated creative team at your agency.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canva is an excellent and efficient way to create simple social media, print and web-ready graphics. This allows us to bring excellent value to our clients when tapping into a full creative team is not in the budget.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an easy, cheap way to bring fresh designs and images to your clients - look no further. Canva is easy to use, even if you're not a designer or creative.

Canva is perfect for individual use!

  • January 10, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite part of Canva is the amount of free assets available - so many designs can be used without charging you a thing! The tools to work with these designs are incredibly user-friendly, even for people with no design experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike very little about Canva. The only thing I have ever wanted to do but haven't been able to do is resize a project after starting it. Outside of that, the only other issue I have experiences was caused by the search feature. There are so many images to search from, and they aren't tagged well. Occasionally it crashes while I try to search for the right image.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I run a blog, and I use this to create graphics. We have also used them socially to create event posters, evites, and even our wedding invitations!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking to create hi-res projects for print for your company, this may not be the right fit. Do you need something for social media, or a small business, or even your personal life? This is perfect.


    Professional Training & Coaching

Canva is an absolute joy to use

  • January 10, 2017
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to save templates, add your brand, and easily copy images with different size specifications. I used to spend hours trying to remember the ideal dimensions for different social platforms, but with Canva it's a breeze. The layouts offer great inspiration, and my graphics come out looking pretty good, if I do say so myself! It's fun to use. I've shared my love of Canva with many people and they've all been thrilled.
What do you dislike about the product?
Every once in a while there's a glitch and my work isn't saved. But that doesn't happen very often. Also, I would like to be able to filter paid versus free assets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Canva I can quickly create beautiful graphics that are consistent with my branding. I love that they just added infographics, as well — this keeps me from having to pay for yet another service and it can stay consistent with other graphics I produce.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't hesitate - the free version is great. The paid version is even better and worth every penny. My only other recommendation is to make use of the folders and organization tools to keep track of all your graphics. Also, spend some time on the tutorials that they offer, like font pairing and choosing colors. The difference between what I created when I first started using Canva and what I produce now is quite big.

I'm a graphic designer and I still use it!

  • January 08, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Its very very easy to use and if the required artwork I am working on as a grpahic designer is not something of big importance (most of the time its personal work which I dont find time for), the layouts help me do a quick artwork which actually looks very good. The fact that you can save to pdf with crops is amazing and I did some cool personalized booklet as Christmas Presents through this site this year.
What do you dislike about the product?
I couldnt find a way to change the dimension once I started working. Dont think its an available function
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time! It really helped in time management. At the office, we have marketing people chasing us all the time to design simple Facebook posts (which even though are simple, still take them when they are in large quantities) which now they do themselves through the site
Recommendations to others considering the product:
make sure you start working with the proper size immediately since there is no option to change the size after you start working. Also you cannot export to other software from the site so don't use it for jobs which will need to continue designing on other software (such as indesign, keynote, etc)

Other than that, it will put a smile on your face when you realize how easy and how much time it saved you!
