"The Best Investment For My Business, Hands Down"
What do you like best about Canva?

My newest favorite thing about Canva is Canva Magic. I never expected such a big update from Canva but I LOVE IT. Canva is very easy to learn and I have been able to compile many of the things I do into the single program. This year I started video editing in Canva and I like it a lot more than I thought I would. It's user friendly, editing is endless and I literally use it all day long.

What do you dislike about Canva?

I really wish that Canva would provide an app to auto populate video captions. Right now I have to download the video and put it into another program to do this and it's one thing lagging in Canva. The newest text to image/video has a LONG way to go for me to choose it over other programs.

What problems is Canva solving and how is that benefiting you?

Canva is what I use to create basically everything in my businesses. This includes things like downloadables, book interiors and covers, print on demand designs, videos, photos, logos, etc. It saves me a lot of time and money to have everything in one place.

"Great tool for quick designs (and even for more complex ones)"
What do you like best about Canva?

What I like about Canva is its user friendly interface. I have been using it for a while now to create invitations, business cards, menus, concert tickets, Linkedin, Instagram and Facebook posts and stories, etc. I have used it for social media posting and video creation. The best work I have done with this tool was a digital monthly magazine, which I created entirely with templates and elements from Canva.

What do you dislike about Canva?

I cannot think of a thing that I dislike about this tool. It is complete, and I know it has some functions that I am still unfamiliar with. I think it has everything that I need for what I use it for.

What problems is Canva solving and how is that benefiting you?

Since I was unable to afford other designing tools like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator, I reached out to Canva to find a less expensive solution. It has not disappointed me, and I wish someday I could have a big team so I can subscribe to their biggest plan.

"THE MOST CONVENIENT EDITING APP"
What do you like best about Canva?

Canva is a very convenient app! You can edit photos and you can also edit document files. It has a lot of features you can use to edit and you can download it on different format based on your need.

What do you dislike about Canva?

As of now, I honestly don't have anything to dislike about canva. Because for me it's the best of bestest app.

What problems is Canva solving and how is that benefiting you?

When I need to edit file or even photos, I can easily do it in canva. Most especially in photo editing, you're not going to have a hard time putting elements on the same place with the same size as it also have a guide which is very nice, since not all editing app have that kind of feature. Also, when I'm done editing, I can download the photos or pubmats in the file format I need, such as jpg, png, or even pfd file format. Lastly, if you edited multiple photos, you can download it all in one time which is one of the best feature of this app for me, as it saves time for editors like me.

The drag and drop feature to upload media files like photos and images. The templates have the same ratio and resolution as needed. For example, if I select youtube thumbnail in the template, then it will show templates who can be easily used for youtube thumnails.

What do you dislike about Canva?

I unlike only one thing is the canva pro cost. This is very high

What problems is Canva solving and how is that benefiting you?

Canva helps to find various types of templates which include Facebook ads, YouTube thumbnails, Instagram ads, etc. On my YouTube channel. I use canva to to make thumbnails. I just make the photo, download it and upload it on the custom thumbnail page.

"A powerhouse of creative design"
What do you like best about Canva?

I have been using Canva for the past 3 years, and it is so full of great elements to design. Its drag-and-drop functionality allows users to effortlessly create stunning visuals without the need for advanced design skills. It is available in both web and mobile applications, which also provide synchronization among the devices. It has both free and premium subscription but premium subscsubscription unlocks a treasure trove of additional resources and features, making it well worth the investment for those seeking more advanced design capabilities.

What do you dislike about Canva?

We won't be able to download the video in high quality using the free subscription.

What problems is Canva solving and how is that benefiting you?

I design posters and invitations, and Canva provides more functionalities to design them.

"Best Web Graphic Design Application"
What do you like best about Canva?

Canva is my primary graphic design application as it has lots of templates to work on. Many templates being free to use, helps to download them. Canva offers a lot at free of cost which can be enough for anyone. The extensive stock images, music and font library is awesome.

What do you dislike about Canva?

Canva could be better if the graphic design had been better and if more photo editing tools were used. The video editor is also not full-featured like bigger videos could not be edited.

What problems is Canva solving and how is that benefiting you?

Previous to Canva, heavy and paid software needed to be installed. Moreover, we need to search for stock assets for editing. Now we can use the Canva on web and for free. It also provides storage of 5 GB which is enough.

"Platform Engages More Audiences"
What do you like best about Canva?

The most helpful in Canva is its ready world-class templates with stellar designs that can only be seen in their software. It saves your energy and time to think about what color, techniques, and fonts are because it is already there in just one click, and you are good to go. Now, if you are creative, they also have the option to customize and create your design for content creation in social media. I have been making my content using Canva, which attracts more audience, followers, likes and hearts. It is very effective to gain followers and social media marketing for your business.

What do you dislike about Canva?

Honestly, I often encounter glitches in Canva, but it is manageable. My overall experience in Canva is unparallel to any other software, and the team is very supportive and offers a great solution to the problem. Friendly service with so many options to choose from to create compelling content for social media.

I am a Social Media Manager, and it solves my problem in content creation using Canva. With the help of Canva, I created world-class content for my clients, engaged more audiences and gained more followers. It saves my time and money. It changed the way I create content. It gives me more confidence to face my clients. For me, Canva is God's send software to help businesses to be at the top.

What do you like best about Canva?

It has many featuers and many pre-built templates to use from and much of the design work can be completed within the platform without leaving it it has a huge assets library from which all the required assets can be accesed.

What do you dislike about Canva?

the only downside of canva is that where many platforms are going ahead with ai integration giving many ai featuers canva still has to roll out such ai featuers.

What problems is Canva solving and how is that benefiting you?

It has many featuers and many pre-built templates to use from and much of the design work can be completed within the platform without leaving it it has a huge assets library from which all the required assets can be accesed. by having soo many featuers integrated into one online platform canva gives me the premium and comfortable feel to work seemlesly and efficiently.

"Pick, place, customize even on free version"
What do you like best about Canva?

The best thing about Canva is it's that simple; you don't need a lot of tutorials to get started. I use Canva free version, but I enjoy fast designs from my previous experience with Photoshop. Templates are so good; you can just put your words and go on the complete structure of the template itself.

What do you dislike about Canva?

Only having an online version without an offline version when the internet sucks becomes a problem. If they could make a desktop offline app version, it would work even more enjoyable.

What problems is Canva solving and how is that benefiting you?

Canva help to solve the problem of finding design ideas and being able to start not from scratch; you find the best template that will work best for you and tweak it the way you want. No more staring at the blank page; you get the starting point and look more professional.
