I honestly love using CANVA for creating instagram or FB posts. I don’t dislike anything but i would think it might be good if it’s available also in web version not just an app version.

"A non-designer's best friend"
What do you like best about Canva?

As an office of one, working smarter is always the goal. With Canva, I am able to easily create attractive graphics for all of our needs in a short amount of time. Whether the project is simple or more complex, I am able to find layouts, graphics, and designs that make me look like a trained graphic designer. It's been a great addition to my work tools.

What do you dislike about Canva?

Some of the graphic options are a bit limiting, in terms of sizing it to your specifications. If you aren't a paid subscription customer, I think all of your options are limited.

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

I need to be able to create graphics for social media, print, the web, and newsletters. I can do all of that with Canva, in addition to the ability to share it with a team and collaborate on a project in real time.

"Great for non-designers like me!"
What do you like best about Canva?

Canva is cheap and incredibly easy to use. I've used it both solo and also in the team feature, always for work purposes. I am by no means a designer. In fact, I'm terrible at it. But you don't always have a designer in-house or easily accessible to do quick projects. Canva is 100% my go-to for making email banners, social post images and quick graphics that look good and can work for B2B marketing. This product makes me look so much better as a marketers. A must-have for small teams.

What do you dislike about Canva?

The quality of the download for print is questionable. I've had some just turn out so grainy. We wanted to use them for our holiday cards and sent the file to a professional printer but it wasn't useable. If you have a ton of print stuff to do, you might not get exactly what you are looking for. Stick to their templates and less of your own uploads for best results there.

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

Saves so much time. Rather than using our designer on retainer for silly small projects that we just need to get DONE, we can quickly turn them around ourselves, without a professional designer.

I dislike the lack of capabilities. There are times I find myself wanting to do something specific, and the software not being capable.

"Easy to use"
What do you like best about Canva?

Canva is a great, easy to use design app for anyone who wants to create creative material but don’t necessarily have the skills to do so. The layout is very simple, but allows you to do tons with the program and create professional-looking posters.

What do you dislike about Canva?

When you try to make an image wider, it crops out some of the picture. The only way to make it larger is to drag the white dots at the corner of the picture, essentially just making the picture taller. So, if you want to make a picture wiser, be prepared to get rid of some of your image. But at the end of he day, I suppose they do that to save the quality of the picture.

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

For someone who works in PR, is very useful to have creative skills, such as photoshop or illustrator. Unfortunately i don’t know how to use those programs, but Canva allows me to be able to design. It’s been very useful in social media roles, creating Instagram stories and posts. I’ve realized a lot of PR people know of Canva, so it can be a great thing to mention on a resume or in an interview.

"So easy and fun to use"
What do you like best about Canva?

It's so easy to make edits to graphic. They also have a lot of free cute icons,backgrounds, and other options to use! I also like that they already have templates made for you to use or get inspiration from.

What do you dislike about Canva?

Not all of their backgrounds and icons are free and you need to upgrade to do certain things.

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

Its easy to go back and look for your previous work. Also, other Canva users can share their work with you so that you are able to edit what they are working on too or leave comments.

"The go-to software for designing HQ marketing collateral, posters, banners and info-graphics."
What do you like best about Canva?

The platform offers a lot of great guidance in terms of templates/examples and suggestions. Very easy to use, even if you aren't very tech-savvy. The software offers a lot of stock photos, fonts, and colors to choose from - and sometimes, you can even filter through the different categories to ensure that you're creating content that actually matches the target audience you are trying to market towards.

What do you dislike about Canva?

Sometimes, when you're saving larger items/files, the platform does crash...not too sure why it does that...so you have to make sure that you are saving copies of your work occasionally - I would also suggest saving your work in PDF format to avoid this.

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

Canva is great if you are trying to create marketing pieces with a team, as your team can work on it simultaneously as you, any time and any where. As a result, this is a lot more time-efficient and convenient for everyone, and allows the company as a whole to meet tight deadlines for deliverable.

Canva offers quick templates, designs and visuals that will enhance your social media posts and make it professional.

What do you dislike about Canva?

The least helpful feature of Canva is probably the user interface. A lot of its great features are hard to navigate to.

I am solving my social media needs with the help of Canva. As a food blogger I am able to attract people from around the world to follow me on instagram thanks to Canva.
