          It is without a doubt the very best and most convenient software I have skilled to this day to produce blog site featured images and images for social media sharing. I am certain it can do more, but these are the main points I was looking for, and it handles them well. It is easy to switch to a various canvas dimension (HD 1920x1080, Instagram Tale 1080x1920, Twitter and google Cover 820x360, custom dimension, whatever) and after that change your sentence and video to fit that style.
I use Stencil every day and it works in my best interest. No issues at all to dislike it. Amazing and fast media creator.
Stencil is my best solution for social media posts creation. Huge resource library and fast editor save me a lot of my time.
Okay so this piece of Image graphics editing software is just awesome. It has a huge inbuilt library of images, templates, fonts plus it also allows to upload own fonts, images. The workspace canvas has a number of predefined sizes suitable for most add types, website blogs and social media platforms. It also allows setting custom canvas sizes. Browser based software doesn't require high configuration PC/laptop. User Interface is easy to navigate and create images.
I have had no reasons to dislike this software.
With stencil my image and banner design has become so easy. I manage multiple client websites and am also responsible for marketing, here stencil is one tool which plays an important role. Social media ad banners have become so easy to design with the available templates in stencil's library.
The best features of stencil is it has huge library of images, vectors as well as premade templates. Easy to use editor for creating custom images for ads as well as social media. Ability to save images and logos to watermark your images. Browser based online tool.
Sometimes the UI freezes apart from that it is a very great tool.

The design platform and interface are excellent - I think this would make a perfect platform for anyone posting to a few social channels.
The fact I can't access their original deal for another member - otherwise excellent.
Image design - Lots of good templates available as well.
If you ever felt you need the speed to start creating fast and well-crafted images for social channels, Stencil may well be it. The user interface is intuitive and ux-friendly. No messy confusion on where to find what. Selecting the font type and images is a breeze. Use their preset template as a starting guide. Stencil comes with a huge library of free stock images and icons. In fact the icon library is not only huge, it comes organized with the related set icons. Oh, they just launched their wordpress plugin to work along within the WP media library! Sweet. And for chrome users, be sure to take advantage of their extension to quickly pull out Stencil's design interface and start designing efficiently.
The design Templates variety seem a little out-dated but then again, visual design is subjective. Nothing much to complain about.
rather than pulling out Photoshop to design templates for social media, Stencil allows for quick creation. Especially useful for virtual assistants.
Can make quick, easy design for social media & advertising. Simple and easy to use.
There could be more customizable options. Sometimes there can be lag.
create and design posts for blogs and social media. The main benefit allows me to create things that save me time.
It is super easy to use. They have all the basic features needed to create images for social media sharing. I also like the pricing strategy. Under free pricing, you can have ten images every month.
I haven't encountered any specific absence of a feature. I am sure it does not have other bells and whistles which more established companies have. But the simplicity of the tool makes it a better service.
Create images for social media sharing. It is very easy to put images together and create images for social media sharing.
Love that it has photos and quotes. Really easy to use!
The images aren't always as crisp looking as I'd like.
Social media posts. Custom blog post and sharable media.
It does everything I need it to. I can upload my own fonts (there's a limit), resize my images, and pretty much do everything I need to make a Pinterest pin. I also upload my my own photos and use the available graphics on Stencil. It's been very easy to use.
The workspace is a little small, so I can' t see with detail all of my designs. The templates are also not very pretty. It doesn't matter because I don't use them anyways.
I use Stencil to make Pinterest pins, and I've been using it for a few years now. I haven't looked back. I can save my templates and they recycle them so my pins have a consistent style.
Stencil is an easy way to make images for social media and websites. It was intuitive to learn and use, no training or even video training needed. With pre-set sizes, it is easy to make sure you are creating the correct size. They have a ton of available great images and quotes images but it is easy to upload your own as well. They have their own templates which I don't use but another time-saver. Nice that you can have your logo easily appear on all images. The Chrome add-on makes it easy to open up images in Stencil, love it. Check out social media feeds you like to get good ideas instead of just winging it. Took me a good year of use before my posts looked professional. This tool makes it easily possible to create the posts (and use their good-looking templates) but the creativity is still up to you. Pick a consistent look and feel. Huge storage space I've been making images for 3+ years and can organize and access them all easily and haven't had to upgrade to keep them. The search function to search their images and your own is great. Being able to make custom sizes and save them for easy access each time. I have folders for created and used images based upon the color scheme. I have it integrated with Buffer for easily scheduling to social media, perfect integration to make whole social media post creation and scheduling seamless.
Customization is limited, making images re-sizable make them unusable because it shrinks them smaller than the original size and pixelated. It would be great if more fonts are available, although I just noticed you can upload fonts. The copy and paste function can be a little tricky but you get the hang of it. I have never been able to get save custom templates to work properly for me, could be user error but would make it easier to keep a similar look and feel.
Being able to make professional consistent social media posts across Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. I can create months worth of posts in a relatively short amount of time. I can easily see if I have used the image before, organize images, and mark them as used so as not to repeat posts/images. Instead of searching Google for quotes, I can search right in Stencil. Stencil has helped us create a polished consistent look across platforms. Because of my website company's lack of photo specs, this was the only way I was able to keep photos a consistent size. Great integration with Buffer and the Chrome addon save safe immense time. I tried different social media image creation tools and Stencil showed to be the best for the value. The results of having a professional well crafted social media presence are an absolute necessity for all organizations. I haven't tried others but haven't needed to because Stencil has met all our needs from day one. Good customer service quickly and easily resolves the very few issues/questions we've had.
