Canva makes great ads!

  • December 26, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the templates available and the ease of drop-and-drag to create marketing campaigns for social media. Canva allows you to use their free or for-purchase templates to create catchy ads. I particularly like the font combinations. I love that this is an ap and that I can use it with my ipad or iphone.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are just a few free templates and the for-purchase templates mix in so it can be difficult to find the free templates quickly. Also, the resolution of the jpgs are not high quality so the images created do not always look great on a web page or printed material. But the images are great for social media.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quick social media advertising for our dance studio classes-the templates save a lot of design time. I have been able to quickly design ads with Canva's templates rather than starting from square one in a design program or even Microsoft word. I have yet to explore the for-purchase elements but imagine Canva can do even more that I currently understand.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great free templates, easy to use, free app, works great with ipad and can easily share ads on social media. There are limited free templates and the exported files work best on social media, not on a website.

Free helpful experience for creating my cd album

  • December 26, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that even though the premium account goves you more design options, you can still create a professional album cover without having to need the knowledge of illustrator. My current EP cover was created with Canva. I plan to use it again!
What do you dislike about the product?
I don’t like that if you want to change the dimensions of the album cover, you must upgrade to a premium account. Artists put so much money to produce the album, and the artwork. Having to pay to put a design together if you want an album jacket or an LP, certainly makes the marketing financially more difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it to create simple album artwork without having to figure out adoby illustrator or another design program. It helps me create artwork without needing to pay to take class. It also helps me play with ideas for marketing and lets me save photo designs that I can use via socal media to entice fans.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great for someone who isn’t too design savvy, but wants to create album covers or marketing to help promote their business

There's nothing that I dislike about it, I think the program is great.

Canva- User friendly design software!

  • December 26, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Canva is very user friendly even when you have little design experience. The more you learn and grow, Canva has the ability to grow with you and can be customized to any skill level.
What do you dislike about the product?
The major drawback of canva is that the features are a mix of free and for purchase features. This can be an issue when learning the program and trying to determine what is included with the basic membership versus the pro membership.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canva allows me to design all of my graphics in house without having to resource out that task. The major benefit is that I have complete control over my designs and I am not spending a ton of money in the process.

Vital for Small Departments with Limited Graphic Experience

  • December 21, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Canva is eye-catching and very user friendly. In addition, most of the services are available for free/low cost unlike some other options that have limited low-cost options.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be glitchy when fine-tuning image or text placement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This product is vital for offices/departments that don't have a graphic designer or creative marketing team. We have been able to create standardized marketing looks that appear professional and customized using a group of people who have limited experience with marketing and design.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is great for general office needs. We are an educational department and use this service for pamphlets and event posters and it suits all of our needs. It is easier to learn and less intimidating than the more professional programs and the cost and templates available make it worth any minor hiccups that may exist within the system.

I Can't Get Enough of Canva!!!

  • December 21, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Everything! When I create social media graphics in Canva, I have FUN. It is easy to use, provides tons of icons and imagery to play with, and super user friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that it is not able to filter free versus paid icons or images. For some clients, they do not have a budget for Canva graphics and it takes a long time to sift through content that I cannot use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Graphic design for social media in Canva is wonderful. I am able to create stunning graphics in very little time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
USE IT. You will LOVE Canva.

High-quality design for everyone

  • December 21, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that the design templates are high-quality, for the most part. There are enough options that most people can find something that will fit their needs. It's incredibly easy for non-designers to figure out how to do things, and the tools are easy to use. The design elements that aren't free are still very reasonably priced.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a little frustrating for those who are experienced with design software to get a good result. Because Canva is simple to use for non-designers, there are some things that are hard to make it do. There are some tools that I'd like to see added, but I understand that keeping it simple is the goal. I think I was trying to draw a line or a shape, and instead had to build the shape with a series of narrow rectangles as lines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have clients who can't afford to be reaching out to a designer for every social media image that they need, so I've been able to help them meet their goals by creating professional, branded Canva templates. So in this way I'm able to keep my design clients (who still do hire me for larger projects) but help them have high-quality design in a way that fits their budget.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it! It's free and it's very easy to get started. Canva for Work isn't free, but that's a great solution for small businesses to make their own graphics easily and in a cost-effective way.

Can be a time suck if you don't have clear ideas

  • December 20, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like this platform for letting me create images that I wouldn't be able to otherwise, not being as amazing with photoshop as I would like to be. They have a TON of options for everything you'd like to create, whether it's a social media image to share on Facebook and Twitter or a cover photo or a blog image to attach to a new article. Plus the fonts and various layouts that they have for free are pretty extensive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unfortunately, you can create an image that looks a whole lot like everyone else's images. So if you don't have a clear idea of what you want your branding or image to look like, you can easily end up using something that looks like everyone else.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is a quick and easy way to come up with some images to share on social media or to create a blog image. I use it mostly to create reminder announcements or shout outs that don't need a ton of thought.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it out and see if you like the results. There's no harm in that since it's free. If you really like it, there are premium offerings as well, such as new layouts or font types.
