"an easy-to-use brand design platform"
What do you like best about Marq?

When I discovered Marq, I realised that I didn't have the tools I needed to do my job quickly and efficiently.

With Marq, you don't need to be a design expert to create great content. You have access to a variety of ready-made templates that can save you time and effort. There are also design tools that allow you to tailor the design to your specific needs.

Marq also allows you to integrate third party content to improve the quality and diversity of your content. This can save you time and effort, as you do not have to search for third party content yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Marq?

A disadvantage of this tool is that it does not support some file formats, such as PSD, AI and EPS. This can limit the customisation of the design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Marq?

Getting our users acclamated to the process and getting them past their reluctance [change] to accept thew new process. Once they use the platform, they begin to see how efffective it can be. But as always, change is hard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Innovative graphic resources to boost campaign result"
What do you like best about Marq?

The best I like about Lucidpress is that it offers us having a design program wherever we've been capable of creating innovative as well as marketing content to enhance our promotion management; I really like the web templates it provides it is simple and easy to work with and it has an extremely user-friendly and good user interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Marq?

The only dislike about Lucidpress is that within the trial edition it has lots of limitations, like no premium template access, we need to upgrade our plan to the premium plan to get all the benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"With Lucidpress you are capable of making all types of graphic design"

There truly is not anything that I don't like with this application. It really works much better than various other rivals available in the market. No need for any specialized training to work with this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"You can do it all/graphic design for the non design professional"
What do you like best about Marq?

With lucid press you can do it all. Especially for individuals who are not graphic design professionals. We use lucid press to design things for mini campaigns and with out having to use our already overworked graphic design department. We've created digital pieces, post cards, flyers, posters pretty much anything you could ever need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Marq?

There really isn't anything that I dislike to be completely honest. It works a lot better than other competitors, and it's designed for the average joe whose not a professional graphic design artists. It obviously can't take the place of what a professional design program can do, but it works thay great! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for charting and for multiple users"
What do you like best about Marq?

My company uses Lucidpress for organization charts and it helps keep things organized for us. I really like how multiple users can have access to it and can jump in and modify it at their own convenience. The CMS is very user friendly and seems to work well with my company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Marq?

The only issue I have had with Lucidpress is sometimes my latest edits do not get saved. I will log back in and see an older version of what I have done after I have saved it with more changes. I'm not sure if this is a user error or a product error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
