Canva Design and Usage
What do you like best about the product?
I really like that you have access to a large variety of templates which you can customize to your own needs. It's also great that I can either use my own photos to include in my designs or upload from a large variety of images the tool provides.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not a very user-friendly tool and takes a lot of time trying things out until they work. Very time consuming. Especially when trying to edit a template the features are often not very clear or easy to be found.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use the tool to create invitations and newsletter templates that are share with our customers. I also use the tool for personal purposes such as invitations and thank you notes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go through the training sessions/use support as much as possible to be able to effectively use the tool.
Easy to use tool
What do you like best about the product?
The interface is extremely user friendly!
What do you dislike about the product?
The search feature could use improvement; the search feature applies to external photos, not the photos that come with templates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Not having a designated Graphic Designer is difficult, but with Canva, we don't need a graphic designer
Recommendations to others considering the product:
it's a great resource to try out.
Great Graphic Maker
What do you like best about the product?
I love the flexibility and ease this program comes with. Makes very attractive graphics and is way too user friendly!
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a lot of pro features and sometimes very basic graphics are considered pro making it challenging to find everything quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We make a ton of social media posts, info graphics, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its a great place to start experimenting with graphic design.
Design for All
What do you like best about the product?
The mobile apps put graphic design to another level. Designs sync from mobile to desktop so you can start a design on one and finish on another. You don't have to know what you are doing with the templates!
What do you dislike about the product?
The team management is a little wonky/ not intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can collaborate quickly on designs and the ability to save branding colors, fonts, and templates means that anyone can create collateral.
Beautiful designs in minutes and always available
What do you like best about the product?
Canva has a lot of incredible features I love using all of them but I can say my favorite one is ready to use templates (aka templates). Canva always has an amazing template that matches my design style and needs and the best part is I can customize them by using my Brand colors and favorite fonts. In addition to this, the complete free resources gallery full of very useful icons, stickers, pictures, shapes, lines, and dynamic graphs. Also, they have a photo gallery at very affordable prices. I cannot forget to mention that Canva is an ONLINE tool, so my designs go with me wherever I go.
What do you dislike about the product?
It took me a time to decide what I really dislike of the tool, because overall I am very happy with the features and probably the only thing I really don't like is that even when the tool saves automatically your work, sometimes when I am working in something that needs time and have to leave for some minutes, to take my lunch for example, or really just close the Mac for a second, and surprisingly my changes are not there or there's a bad connection and I have to refresh the browser and last changes are not there. This happened to me few times but could be frustrating, especially if you are not very familiarized with cloud tools like Canva.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Basically, all my designing needs are solved with Canva, from a simple logo to my pics for the everyday posting on social media also the collaterals, everything related to design is there and is what I need to support commercial activities. I would like to mention one special day that Canva helped me to overpass the customer expectations. I was at the customer premises delivering a product when the printing services called me to request an unexpected change to the "final design version 10" of some business cards the client needed for the next day. My computer was not with me and came back to my office at 6pm was not an option. So I just requested my client for a computer with internet, log in into Canva, did the changes and sent the PDF ready to print in minutes. My client could not believe I solved his problem and he got his cards as expected. This is probably the most exciting feature of Canva, my designs are with me anywhere!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This tool is the best if you need to create hundreds of designs for social media posting, it has layouts with the perfect size and beautiful templates ready to use.
Taylor's Canva Review
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to layer backgrounds, designs, and texts for the pop up ads I make. The pictures and more clip art looking features are such a high quality. I feel that I am able to use the images and font for our business's website that get the information across in a professional way.
What do you dislike about the product?
The text styles with the set shapes feel limited. I am not sure how long Canva has been around but I would love to see more updates, for example, saying when our business will be closed for holiday hours, or a snow day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A way to create information for brief periods of time that stand out on our website. Otherwise when we just update the website, customers can't tell when something is new or if it's always been there.
I tell everyone I can about Canva
What do you like best about the product?
Their free account with the ability to purchase images and select from pre-existing layouts is a lifesaver for anyone in marketing. They are the most affordable design solution on the market, and they're extremely fun to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes my mouse acts like it's on the fritz if I'm doing too many things on a layout. It's almost like it can't handle the many layers I sometimes use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Designing last minute logos, brochures, invites, flyers, data sheets... you name it. It's so easy to use and so cost effective.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is no risk in trying it. I highly recommend you build a free account today. You will get addicted!
Super Simple Tool for Creating Graphic Content
What do you like best about the product?
I like the simple interface for adding images, text, and other design elements.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't believe I was able to save out a file with a transparent background. This may now be available but am not certain.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm able to create graphic content in a quick period of time and not have to rely on sending it out to another team which adds delays.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I still use Photoshop for more advanced needs but for the majority of basic graphic layout needs Canva is a gem.
Easy to use tool for creating compelling artwork for social media
What do you like best about the product?
There are hundreds of designs (many available at no cost) to inspire you.
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally the artwork won't update to reflect the changes made. When this happens, I have to save the design and start my changes over again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We post on Social Media (Facebook, Instagram) regularly. Canva allows us to create compelling images to go along with the post.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The free version is quite powerful and is a great way of trying it out. The paid version is a monthly subscription that provides additional tools and group collaboration features.
Canva for social media - A+!
What do you like best about the product?
I love "Canva for Work" and all the customization options. It's so easy to upload branding tools for a team to share ownership of. It makes graphic design for social media easy and efficient. Highly recommend!
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to complain about here! The "free" library is pretty good, but if there were even more options that would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canva has made it easy for non-graphic designers in our org. to get creative. With template options, there's quick turn around in designs we use.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take time to play around with the platform. There's a lot of tutorials that show great tricks for beginners. An easy way to improve skillset and make your graphics look high quality.
