Canva Reviews

“canva animations help”

Pros

Adding motion to my animations on Canva has been my favorite part lately and I really enjoy that it now includes AI features too.

Cons

A lot of the better features only become available once you pay for the subscription although I understand they need to make money somehow.

“templates for every skill level”

Pros

It works well whether you're experienced in graphic design or just getting started. You can choose from ready-made templates or build your designs completely from scratch which makes it really flexible.

Cons

This may just come down to getting more familiar with the platform but I do wish there were better options for organizing, categorizing and sorting my work.

“Good feature”

Pros

A single click is all it takes to remove the background which makes the whole process really convenient.

Cons

One thing I'm not too happy with in it is that customer support can be a bit slow to respond.

“Easy to use”

Pros

Canva is incredibly user-friendly and it makes collaboration simple for my entire team when we're working on the same project. We're able to create professional-looking flyers, sign-up sheets, calendars and more without any hassle. It really covers everything we need in one place.

Cons

At this point I don't have any complaints about the services you get here.

“versatile design tool”

Pros

Whether it's for work projects or personal use, Canva has been incredibly useful. It covers everything from invitations to full presentations and every design can be customized however you want. The AI feature is especially helpful for organizing ideas and putting your thoughts together. Overall, Canva feels like a very well-built publishing platform.

Cons

The huge number of available elements can feel a bit overwhelming at first but using the filters makes it much easier to narrow things down.

“perfect for beginner designers”

Pros

This is a very beginner-friendly online design platform especially for start-up graphic designers. It comes with plenty of templates, layouts and tools that make it simple to create stylish, trendy visuals and bring ideas to life.

Cons

Its biggest limitation is how far it can take you. Once your skills grow and you need more advanced tools or more specific design elements, you'll probably have to move over to Adobe Creative Suite or a similar program.

“has stellar support”

Pros

Canva's drag-and-drop layout feels very adaptive so even beginners or people without a design background can put together professional-looking designs without much trouble.

Cons

I appreciate that it comes with plenty of templates but it can feel a bit restrictive for more experienced designers who want finer control over every part of their work.

“anyone can use”

Pros

Using the templates feels very simple and I really appreciated being able to download my work during the trial without any watermark added.

Cons

Living in Ghana the advanced plan is too expensive for me because of the dollar-to-cedi exchange rate and the ongoing depreciation of the cedi.

“It's so good”

Pros

It's the best software I've used for creating templates, posts and design work. It comes with a wide range of functions and gives access to plenty of useful resources for different kinds of projects.

Cons

Lot of the features are locked behind payment so you end up needing to subscribe to access many tools that sometimes feel like they should already be basic.

“Great templates”

Pros

A big reason I keep using Canva is its huge template collection. There's pretty much a template for every kind of design. The interface feels very user-friendly so working in it doesn't take much effort. Another thing that made me try it was that the basic features are available for free. It also has a collaboration option where multiple people can work on the same design file at once. I use Canva regularly, around once a week. The customer support has also been helpful and usually gets back within about 3 days.

Cons

One downside with it is that it needs an internet connection at all times so I can't really get anything done offline. It also falls short when it comes to text formatting options. Also, when exporting the final design, I've often noticed a drop in poster quality.

“simple to learn”

Pros

Even without being familiar with it, the software guides you in the right direction and redirects you when needed.

Cons

I haven't run into any problems so far and everything has been fine up to this point.

“Excellent software”

Pros

the platform feels flexible and professional while still leaving plenty of room for creativity. It makes it simple to create both everyday and more polished designs for presentations, book covers, flyers and pretty much anything else you need. Document creation is fast thanks to ready-made elements and layouts but there's also complete freedom to customize everything with thousands of available assets. The AI integration is especially impressive for advanced one-click image editing, including image expansion, background removal, magic eraser and magic grab.

Cons

Text-to-image AI feature is still quite early in development.

“loved the design variety”

Pros

The wide range of options, designs and colors is something I really enjoy.

Cons

There's honestly nothing I dislike, I enjoy it as a whole.

“Excellent software”

Pros

It's a really practical and useful app and I'm able to create all kinds of different content with it, including invitations and videos.

Cons

One downside is that some features change depending on the language you use, like the "magic tools." I also felt that the video creation and editing section was a little complicated.

“Great tool”

Pros

Editing content the way I want is really simple with the available templates and I can also upload my own. Being able to share everything directly to social media makes the whole process even better.

Cons

The only downside is that the pro templates require an extra payment and the pricing feels a bit too high for my budget.

“a compete tool kit”

Pros

It offers a very complete set of tools for creating all kinds of graphic materials, from brochures and playbills to business cards.

Cons

Free version comes with quite a few limitations and getting started can be difficult if you're new to using this kind of software.

“so helpful”

Pros

Turns out, its a very practical and affordable graphic design tool... it is exactly what I was looking for. The platform is simple to use, the free version is quite complete and there are plenty of ready-made templates available. I also appreciate the real-time collaboration and the huge library of images and graphic elements. It's an excellent option for putting together impressive designs without making the process complicated.

Cons

This tool works really well for graphic design although it comes with a few limitations. Some of the more advanced features are only available in the paid plan and you need an internet connection to use it. It's also not the best fit for more complex design work and the customization options are more limited when compared with professional software. Also, it's important to pay attention to copyright when using certain images. Still, I understand the platform needs to generate revenue somehow.

“user-friendly”

Pros

Been incredibly versatile for me. I use it to put together flyers, calendars, videos and plenty of other things. Since I'm only moderately tech savvy, I also appreciate how user-friendly it is and how simple it feels to work with.

Cons

there's very little to complain about with this software. If I had to point out one small issue, it would be staying organized inside it. I use it so often that managing everything can get a bit overwhelming though to be fair, that probably has more to do with how much I use it than with the software itself.

“perfect for creatives”

Pros

Putting together different kinds of presentations feels really convenient with it, whether I'm making brochures, videos or animations. I also enjoy being able to use personalized images, including my own photos and it's a big plus that there are plenty of options for exporting finished work.

Cons

There are a lot of resources locked behind the premium plan and lately I've noticed they are showing more and more of those elements. The license price also feels expensive for home use. Also, it depends on an internet connection since there isn't an installable desktop version.

“friendly overall”

Pros

Interface feels very user-friendly and adaptive which makes it pleasant to work with.

Cons

The extra charges added for upgrades are something I do not care for.
