Use it Every Day
What do you like best about the product?
I like so much about Canva but I think the best thing are how many free stock photos there are. I used to pay for subscriptions o different platforms and after finding Canva, they have so many that I don't need to anymore.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't currently dislike anything about Canva. I have had a great experience with it so far.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Because of their amazing stock photos, it is SO easy to create a beautiful design. This has made my job alot simpler not having to import or find my own photos.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are currently subscribed to big stock or shutter stock check out canvas free photos and see if you like them.
Customizable or Creative
What do you like best about the product?
This is a good program for beginners and those who are advanced in designing. It is easy to use and learn for those who may seem intimidated by a program such as InDesign.
What do you dislike about the product?
One aspect of Canva that was frustrating is the sizing. Once a file is saved, I found that the proportions would be off centered compared to my original file on Canva.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used this program for various invitations, promotional materials, and email graphics. This program has become a vital resource.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be sure to look for free items - not all items require a payment
Fairly Functional
What do you like best about the product?
I love the simplicity of the product. You don't need a background in design to create a wonderful graphic. The free graphics and text functions that come with the free option for Canva are plentiful.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lacks some basic functionality with text manipulation (ex. changing text size within text box), which can get a bit annoying. Sometimes I have problems saving my work, and I cannot use the undo/redo function (which seems like a huge thing to be overlooked).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Canva for quick flyers for marketing--much easier and faster than photoshop. That's useful for us because we have several programs that we need to get material out for. We only have one account, which allows myself and my supervisor to share our work seamlessly.
Design Skills Not Needed
What do you like best about the product?
Super simple to use and get started. You don't need any previous graphic design experience to make nice looking social media posts, flyers, or cards. The free version is extremely robust and it is very clear what benefits a paid version would have. It is nice to know as I use the product how my experience could be improved without having to buy it to see if it would be worth it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Finding things like text can be difficult. Knowing what to type to get the results you want is not always intuitive. Sometimes finding simple things (such as a plain, square, solid-line border can be difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to create eye-catching social media posts. With no experience in graphic design, I am able to produce consistent, on brand posts with ease.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The paid business version has some really nice functions such as saving fonts and colors, but if you aren't using more than a couple fonts and colors it might not be worth it to purchase for that reason alone.)
Great and free graphics tool
What do you like best about the product?
Canva is an amazing and FREE! graphics platform and it is very simple and easy to use by anyone and no prior experience is needed. I like that it has templates for all the social media like twitter, facebook, etc... all what you need is to select what you want to design ( poster, social media app, brochure, program, etc..) and then start the work. There are many fonts and icons available to enhance your designs and when you are done, the graphics can be exported to PDF or high quality images.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing that I don't like is that I have to be online in order to use Canva.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canva helped my to create some nice brochures and flyers that were required by advisors at school. It really helped me to make decent designs that impressed everyone at school.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Canva is a great and free graphics platform that can really help students to create their own designs
A creative developer!!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Canva user nterface is laid out with clear instructions on how to start using it. Also, I like that I can move between different sections and find what I need easily and quickly. It's helpful that If I do not want to use a template, I can start from scratch, giving me the option of being 100% original or let Canva help me out a little bit. The cost is low for everything that it offers. I really like that I can as well, adapt the creation for almost any platform, like a post on facebook or a website layout, being multiuseful on every site. Love that I can share the progress with my clients trough easy communication networks. Helps me to explode my creative capacities and pleased my clients with unique and different creations each.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that the software can't be use if I do not have internet and I think they should make an alternative page where you can work on the designs while traveling or when being in long distance places, would be very hepful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canva has benefited me a lot by offering flexibility to work, because for me, a freelancer, I do not have machinery or programs too specialized to make esigns, so this software has offered me a dynamic way to work on designs and concepts to my clients with my limited resources, getting adapted to them and their requirements, I have been able to create posts and publications of promotions with this software on an easy way, being another great benefit having saved a lot of money, as an only designer, there are many tasks that I have to do, the clients often ask for designs to their social media, and saving resources to develop later my little business, it's key, and Canva has contributed with that goals since I can do everything in one place.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Canva has great designs so you can go slowly develop your skills on the design field, as well as giving you the posibility to start from scratch when you feel confident enough with your own imagination, canva is really easy and helps you in all stages of creation, give it a try!!
Embellish your photographs and images
What do you like best about the product?
Canvas is one of the editors of online images that I use the most, I like it because I can log in quickly, it also saves my work automatically and keeps the images uploaded to use whenever I want, I can say that Canva is very interactive and does not require much knowledge to use it.
What do you dislike about the product?
While it can work offline, some functions require that you have access to the Internet and I think you should have better smart trimming tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Use canva to create content for social networks of my company, since it has many templates to edit, which makes me work faster and easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Excellent tool that should not be missed, the options you find in canva have nothing to envy other image editors.
Easy Graphics for Social Media & Business
What do you like best about the product?
I like the drag and drop feature the best. Super easy to upload designs, and it's also easy to download in multiple forms like PDF and PNG
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish they offered a higher resolution max. I have the professional subscription and the max resolution is 5000 X 5000. I also wish you could upload more fonts, they cap it at a couple dozen, I believe. I pay $12/mon but wish it was half that price.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I create all of my social media quotes, pinterest, and Facebooks posts using Canva. I also use it for teaching and can create fliers, schedules, and other teaching tools with style.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
So much easier to learn than AI.
Canva is perfect for anyone starting as a graphic designer
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to create anything from logos to Social Media posts
What do you dislike about the product?
I which they would keep improving Canva 1.0, allow you to center text or images easier, add shadows behind text, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Canva to create Social Media posts
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Canva is definitely worth a shot. If you are starting and don't have much experience as a graphic designer, it will help you with all the templates they already have.
Excellent tool for creating beautiful and elegant designs
What do you like best about the product?
- You can work from any device (Tablet or phone) or PC that has internet access.
- It is an online tool, therefore it is free, and it is easy to use, which helps users adapt more easily since no design knowledge is needed to create a project. You can also customize the dimensions of the designs to be executed.
- It has a wide range of images and libraries that help design very quickly. If you don't find images to your liking, you can purchase premium images for $1.
- It has great flexibility to work as a collective tool, allowing you to share the design with clients or colleagues to improve the design under construction.
- A great advantage is that you can save a project in PNG, JPG, PDF, and animated GIF formats (trial format), which maximizes printing. Additionally, the color function is another of its most prominent advantages since colors are saved automatically without needing to remember the hexadecimal code.

What do you dislike about the product?
- The difficulty encountered is that it does not provide guidelines to know when the design is centered and aligned with the rest of the project.
- Another problem found is that once the project is saved, a slight modification in the design can be seen.
- A conflict presented is that if the image (with all the titles and arrangements) is accidentally selected and sent outside the workspace, everything collapses. Clicking the undo button starts to undo the images outside the workspace, which results in having to redo the design.

Presentations can be set up to show executives a specific project, and it is also used to create designs for advertisements on social media.
