Canva Reviews

Summary: Canva is a great tool to create modern designs for almost any usage. It can be used for creating business cards, images, or UI designs. The user interface of the application succeeds in achieving the simplicity and showcasing all the necessary tools on the main editing panel, so a beginner doesn't have to wander to find any tool.

Positive: Canva has some great tool that helps in creating beautiful and multipurpose designs. The tools include a very broad colour palette that helps in achieving the exact same colour in the design as planned or iterated. Aside from creating, it also helps in editing designs. There are multiple premade templates also available for almost every purpose for creating design on the go.

Negative: The basic plan does not have enough storage to store multiple projects, and the paid subscription is a bit expensive for single individuals.

Summary: I really like Canva because I can create flyers and event posters on the fly. I can create them on my phone or on the desktop. And best of all it's free for the most part. I have used Canva for many years and it's very easy to use and fits my needs extremely well and at no cost.

Positive: Super easy to create marketing and brand flyers even if you are not a great designer by nature. There are so many free templates to choose from so it makes creating them quick and easy. There are many sizes and styles to ensure you can upload the correct dimensions to your social media apps.

Negative: I wish there was a way to co-edit with another person without having to export the file and email them. Also sometimes, the better looking templates are on the premium plan so from time to time, the template you need you may need to pay for.

Summary: Solid product that I constantly advise other authors to use. Adore Canva and it's accessible even if you're not normally a graphics person.

Positive: Canva can do so many things. I use it for all my graphics and have literally made thousands of images over the years including super cute business cards that everyone loves plus very precise covers for my books both in paperback and audio book format.

Negative: Not a lot really. Only thing I'd like to be able to do that I currently can't is resize existing images. I have to start again if I make a mistake with my sizing. Also a "save as" feature might be useful so that I can use old images as templates without losing the original on Canva.

Summary: I love Canva for creating graphics, it has be easy to use and better quality than any other platform I've tried.

Positive: So easy to learn, use, and create a wide range of graphic pieces that look professional and easily customizable.

Negative: Filing and sharing files with other team members can be challenging and be disorganized, hard to find older designs.

Summary: Overall, Canva can be a really useful tool for anyone looking to create designs for their business and project and doesn't have the skill or want to invest a lot of time in making it.

Positive: - Canva helps in making any type of artwork including cards, logos and posts.
- It has some really modern looking and cool fonts that can be used with the design to elevate the overall look and feel of the artwork.
- It has a variety of premade templates readily available so that the beginner doesn't have to wander.

Positive: Canva can really help a job seeker turn their LinkedIn profile into a competitive advantage. Every job seeker needs a personal brand and by using tools within Canva they are able to create this on their LinkedIn Banner. I highly recommend it.

Negative: It always would be great to have more free options.

Summary: Very good product, use it for many of our design needs that aren't overly complex. Can make nice looking assets quickly with minimal work.

Positive: The software is very easy to use as compared to things like Adobe Acrobat / Indesign, which we use heavily in our business. Intuitive interface, great assets and templates available on free or paid plans. Really allows you to create impactful visuals quickly and with limited design skills.

Negative: On the paid plan, when resizing artwork from one dimension to another there is still tweaking that is needed to adjust artwork. Most of the additional image assets in the platform are from third parties, so be careful using it if you're looking to trademark any designs, that's not possible with their stock imagery. Also wish they had more options for color themes in their templates that work separate from the core color theme.

Summary: Canva is an online photo editor. Which provides many features like cropping the images, resizing it, adding filters or removing it and many more totally free of cost. At the end on the final image there is no watermark which every software uses for their promotion. Very easy to use as their tools are very simple. We can also change the contrast or brightening level. Best Software for beginners.

Positive: Easy to learn with quick response.
Free to edit, resize and filter.
No watermark.
Tools are very simple.
No plugins or app's are required.
Easy to post on social media.
