Canva Reviews

“It's just great”

Pros

The range of tools available works really well for marketing projects and the use of artificial intelligence has improved editing work a lot.

Cons

Subscription price is a bit high.

“Excellent value”

Pros

There's a wide range of options in this software when putting together the proposals I present to clients which gives me a lot of flexibility in how I work.

Cons

I'd say a beginner could have a hard time finding their way around the software. At the start, I had to ask for help during pretty much every one of my interventions.

“fantastic for posters and flyers”

Pros

This has been a wonderful tool for creating projects like posters and flyers.

Cons

Some features and items aren't accessible unless you pay for them.

“flexible design options”

Pros

I like that I have plenty of options to choose from and resizing what I'm creating is simple and convenient.

Cons

I do wish there were a better way to organize artwork that's already been used.

“layout is simple”

Pros

The interface is very simple to use and does a really good job of guiding the user to keep the right proportions which helps the final result come out just right.

Cons

A large number of templates are only available with the premium plan so you can't use or edit them unless you're subscribed.

“templates are good”

Pros

Using the templates, I can put together assets quickly without needing much graphic design experience and they still come out looking polished.

Cons

One frustration is that exporting assets as editable files for design or printing isn't very simple.

“branding made simple”

Pros

The tool makes it really simple to put together just about anything needed for branding, from logos and flyers to menus and more.

Cons

Clip art selection feels limited. When I was making business cards for my husband's dock business, I couldn't find anything that really matched or represented the docks he builds.

“Fun to create at Canva!!”

Pros

There's a huge selection of templates and that's one of the things I enjoy most about using it.

Cons

Has a massive template library that reallt helps you put together polished designs quickly but building something from scratch can be frustrating because the design tools feel less adaptive and some feature limits aren't clearly explained.

“Amazing experience”

Pros

It has impressive features that allows me to edit photos and videos for my social networks.

Cons

Paid features that limit my experience with the app, whilst understanding that it is necessary for the maintenance and continuation of the app.

“practical editing tools”

Pros

The sheer ease with which you can make virtually any kind of edit you need.

Cons

While the editing tools are incredibly easy to use, access to premium assets and effects is limited to the paid version

“Its so good”

Pros

Ease of creating really good looking graphics as well as all the templates available. The new AI feature is ok and will likely improve tremendously with time. I also like that we can use premium Unsplash photos with a paid account.

Cons

One of the best things I like about it is also one of the least things I like about it.. the amazing templates also make it very easy to go off-brand when you're not a brand designer. I've done that several times and I really have to be careful. Another thing I'm not really happy about is the fact that the images and graphics I add in the 'Brand' section are difficult to import into my creatives. Maybe I don't understand this feature so I upload all my branding graphics so that I can easily use them. I don't know why the graphics/photos in the 'Brand' section can't be easily imported. This makes no sense to me. The last thing I'm not really happy about is the amount of clicks and time I need to spend to export each graphic. I wish we could default these settings, i.e. I always have to deselect download 'ALL' pages to only download one which is always what I need to do. Also, I download more .jpgs than anything else. It just takes so long to adjust the settings every single time.

“social campaigns made simple”

Pros

I love the ease in which I can make social media campaigns and marketing for my business.

Cons

In my opinion the search could be a bit more direct for each persons specific needs.

“Flexible templates”

Pros

The interface is simple to navigate, the template library is quite generous and the customer support team is quick to respond—plus, you can easily collaborate with others on projects.

Cons

This tool is clearly designed more for digital use than for print work.. it lacks features like rulers, guides, export format choices and proper color management that can be a real letdown for anyone needing precise print-ready results.

“feature rich tool”

Pros

Whats not to like? the designers, the options they give you, the elements and so on.

Cons

Best features are paid but I understand that the values are significant.

“incredibly useful”

Pros

This software is invaluable! I appreciate all of the pre-made templates. It helps me to make various documents and flyers quickly.

Cons

Some of the AI tools are not consistent but with work it will become more efficient.

“outstanding graphic design options”

Pros

The options for graphic design, even the free ones, are unbeatable!!

Cons

A few feature are locked unless full version is purchased but the rest are also good!

“perfect for us”

Pros

A photo and video editing platform, easy to use, collected from other platforms, free and with good quality and has an app for smartphones

Cons

I wish there were more free tools but I know the app needs a financial return.

“all design needs met!”

Pros

Its the best easy to use software i have ever used so many designing tools and lots of templates to use which look modern and professional

Cons

Could be better if all was free but its still okay I gues

“I'd recommend!!”

Pros

Love that you can search hundreds of ideas for flyers or invitations. I use it all the time for work and it's really stepped up the professionalism of our campaigns!

Cons

When text boxes/pictures are to close it is hard to select which one you are wanting to move. Also when making a new text box it's very easy to accidentally delete the text box when trying to delete the prefixed words

“Great designs”

Pros

I like the practicality in using this tool, very easy to create various documents and designs for various purposes.

Cons

There are no more free photos and videos and when we're looking for photos or videos we should be able to filter in the search engine only free.
