Amazing design tool!

Unable to justify text. Sometimes objects lock into place/onto a grid and it is more difficult than it should be to make them line up

Design in minutes!
What do you like best about the product?
Love how you can quickly put together design for the application that is needed. Browse different preset designs or create something completely new.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish there were more options for different fonts as well as image resize without losing original quality. Changing the size of a project without starting all over would be great feature.

Canva has helped us create designs for various Social platforms quickly. Where I would have had to outsource alot of design work, I can use canva to do a lot of things myself more efficiently.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Free to use for small users giving you the ability to try before commiting to more. Lots of tutorials and design inspiration help you to do more.
Alternative to Photoshop but easier to use
What do you like best about the product?
Drag and drop, many templates, Free stock pictures
What do you dislike about the product?
Less customization, user interface need work
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy design
Great tool for the amateur to semi-pro graphic designer
What do you like best about the product?
I had never used this website/heard of it prior to my current job. However, it was fairly easy to use, making it easy to adapt to its tools, features, and workflow. The templates make things amazingly simple and quick to put original graphics together. This has been especially helpful for Instagram posts, newsletters, and header graphics for email outreach.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike not being able to customize fonts within one field (e.g., bold text, then italic the following line), which makes aligning text boxes very difficult and time-consuming. I also dislike the disorganization of files and photos, which makes searching a little bit more extensive - even with creating folders for files/photos, I am unable to sort folders. Uploading/saving is occasionally a failure due to a Canva server issue; there is also an issue where Canva has deleted my files and not proved any evidence that they existed, meaning I've lost a couple of projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solved the need for a quick, easy graphic design app, as before my agency was using third-party volunteers or Word, both of which could be unreliable in their own unique ways.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Pretty solid, well-featured app to do simple, clean graphic design projects. This is perfect for social media, streamlined print projects, and brochures.
Ample layouts and formats available
What do you like best about the product?
They've got the most commonly used sizes available for you to start with to make things easier. There are several stock backgrounds and titles to pic from or you can upload your own. Makes nice cover photos or advertisement photos quick and easy. Or you can use it to watermark your own photos for posting online. Cant beat it for the price. Some premium options available at a small price. As with any software that you buy credits for, the more you purchase, the cheaper the price per unit. There's also a logo design section that is nice for startups and small businesses.
What do you dislike about the product?
It was a little intimidating at first but I quickly caught on to what it wanted and how to do it. There are a LOT of options to choose from which is nice in the long run, but in the beginning, trying to look through them to find exactly what you want can be a bit overwhelming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Watermarking photos before posting to prevent misuse has been a big plus.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its got a lot of easy to use functions and the premade templates and sizes for social media or advertising materials is a HUGE help!!!
The design tool for non-graphic designers
What do you like best about the product?
SUPER confidence boosting in the design department. Nothing like feeling like you're in over your head with making something look good .... only to have canva save the day! Very intuitive and user-friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish for those of us that had a LITTLE design experience that things could be a little bit more customizable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work in the communication field and have to "do it all". This was a GREAT addition to my toolkit for doing design work quickly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Limit your time with Canva ahead of time - it's fun when you go to create something and while the point is speed for most users, it's easy to get sucked in and spend too much time!
The Easiest, most Enjoyable Infographics I have ever created!
What do you like best about the product?
Canva has such a nice interface that is so self-explanatory and that draws you into the creation process. There are a number of templates to choose from, after which you just carry on going and adapting and changing them to exactly how you want them to look. They have a really large range of graphics and icons that are in vector form, so you can do whatever you like, in whatever size. In the free version, there is not even a watermark on the exported item, in full resolution! I am so impressed.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issue that I could find that was slightly annoying was that when I downloaded my infographic in a certain format, the PNG icons I had uploaded myself (with transparent background) had a slight outline indicating their background still in place. I fixed this by downloading them as PDFs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting information across to employees is a vital part of engaging them in processes. Canva helped me to engage them in a really simple, colourful, informative way. There was no need for anything other than the infographic to get my point across.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Canva is so easy to use. Just try it out before buying a subscriptiopn and you'll see that even the most advanced features are a breeze to use. I have tried one or two other infographic softwares over the last few months and Canva beats them all, hands-down. This is the right way to go if you are looking to convey your information in better ways than ever before!
Its a great tool to manage designs
What do you like best about the product?
it a great tool you can design as an amateur or a professional and the result you get its a nicely profesional design
What do you dislike about the product?
for the moment what i whould love its that you could design for more platforms such as gif, billboards etc
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
i used to send every desing to a agency and design will come back and forward until aproval but with these platform you can have trendy designs
Recommendations to others considering the product:

Amazing software /design options for all
What do you like best about the product?
I love the variety. From flyers , to coupons to business reminders, menus and more. This site has both free to use and premium paid for options. Provides everything you need to create asthetic professional printable business and personal design options. Speaking of printable they offer their own print service to print them and to send to you different quantities for affordable prices. Another love Is how easy to use it is. You can use provided photos or templates or create your own
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the paid options are a little high one photo can be $5 but the premium subscription helps cut costs
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I dont have to outsource or pay a expensive designer I cut out a middle man and can do things at any hour. Make changes quickly and swiftly and it allows me to avoid stopping in at a print shop.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just switch you wont regret it they are a easy and amazing design company
