Canva review
What do you like best about the product?
I love Canva! I'm learning to use more advanced programs, but Canva is a great tool for simple, quick graphics. It's easy to use and has a wide variety of applications, especially for a free service.
What do you dislike about the product?
It lacks some functionalities, but it's easy and free.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Infographics, quick graphics, social posts, art for design, etc ...
I love using Canva
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy using the templates. It's easy to learn and to teach. We love to use it for social media images.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more grid options. Sometimes it's hard to line things up.

People who don't have graphic design training can easily create visually appealing images.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Canva is free and an easy tool to use. Great for creating blog images and pictures for social media. Even use it for presentations, websites resumes.
Unique program!
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to use and create cards that look like they were done by a designer. Sometimes we have small projects where we want to design a Valentine or thank you card that doesn't need to go to a printer/designer but needs to be more than what we are capable of. This program makes it possible for us to produce sleek, professional looking pieces without having to coordinate or pay for a professional designer.I love that you can upload your brand elements directly to your account so that everything you create is appropriate for your audience and branding scheme.
What do you dislike about the product?
It took a little bit to get used to the layout of the home screen. I did have some difficulty in creating different types of cards. When I tried to make a folding card, I would create my design and the program would only allow me to print it as a postcard. The more time I spent working in the program, the easier it became.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to save money on smaller designed pieces by creating them in house. For more last-minute projects, we are also able to get a simple design together and printed on a faster timeline than had we sent it off to a professional designer.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't forget to sign up for a nonprofit account if you are eligible. This will provide you with free features outside of the standard free features. The support resources for canva are great and the employees are extremely responsive and helpful. Definitely add people to your account so that you can all access your projects and learn the software together.
Next best thing to a graphic designer
What do you like best about the product?
I love the variety of templates and choices along with the ability to customize designs. Canva helps me create graphics like a professional graphic designer, but at the fraction of the cost. It's also MUCH easier to use than photoshop, illustrator or other graphic design tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
Canva charges for the use of some elements, but it's only $1 which is reasonable. I would like the organization of my own creations to be easier - I think they may have just implemented folders and I will be checking that out.
I also wish it were easier to search for things/elements that I'm looking for. Right now, there's just one search box without any filters so it can be hard to find elements that way - but it's not that big of a deal.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The greatest business problem that Canva solves is reliance on a graphic designer. They make it super-simple to create and customize stunning graphic elements for social media, online and print media. Now I only use a graphic designer to do the hard stuff - like creating a logo or image - or something that requires a great deal of customization/personalization. Otherwise, Canva does a great job.
Canva Review
What do you like best about the product?
Canvas is fairly simple to use for beginners and extremely intuitive when you're trying to figure the program out. It's great for people that do not have a background in design as it doesn't take long to pick up speed and assess how to complete your project.
What do you dislike about the product?
The bank of backgrounds and shapes that can be places into a poster are limited. Which makes certain projects less functional using this program. When importing photos from your personal files rather than the bank they provide it can be hard to format the photo without much distortion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used Canva to create marketing posters and postcards for events. The search function is easy to use and made what I was looking for extremely easy to find, however I do wish there were more options. It seems when searching for something in particular you may find one or two options.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend Canva as it does not require much or any background knowledge to get started and complete a project.
Really easy marketing materials done in minutes
What do you like best about the product?
Canva is an awesome website/app for creating various marketing materials quickly. They give you plenty of templates to choose from, like social media headers and posts, business card, flyers etc. Pretty much whatever you need, you can find a template there or create your own design from scratch. For me personally, the paid version is not worth the money because $12/mo for resizing my design and saving brand colors is just not justifiable for me. But I enjoy using their free version.
They also give you many icons and pictures, details to use in your designs for free.
They also give you many icons and pictures, details to use in your designs for free.
What do you dislike about the product?
That you need to pay for some icons and details (like a line or rectangle) $1 - it's not much, but you only get access to the element you buy for 24 hours and if you want to create something more advanced, the design will cost you. Also in some categories of elements, you cannot find a free one so that sucks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's an easy way for non-designers to create lovely graphic designs for social media or websites. It's intuitive and one will quickly get into it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The free version is awesome. Give it a go and see for yourself. The paid version, you'll see if it's worth the money for your use case. But I definitely recommend it!
Pretty good
What do you like best about the product?
Most of the items on canva are free and it's easy to make a generic logo
What do you dislike about the product?
When making a logo, some of the build functions overlap and it gets hard to use
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed a logo
