"The Ultimate Creative Platform for Stunning Designs"
What do you like best about Canva?

I would definitely like to recommend canva to my friends and colleagues because this is one and only platform that has huge variety of photo and video editing tools. It not only edits the digital contents but it also creates premium design for business and personal usage. If a person is creative then then this tool is like a whiteboard for showing their skills Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canva?

Canva is a platform which is filled with different type of editing features and I don't feel that there is any professional editor who won't like the tools and creativity of this platform. It is just that if a user is completely new to designing then he might get confused in the beginning otherwise it is a great tool and businesses should must try it.

"Canva Ai for graphic designing works"
What do you like best about Canva?

i liked & super excited using Canva Ai, Because I'm a graphics designer with a simple prompt I can design a poster like create me a coffee ad post for Instagram within few seconds it will create and I can give some edit prompts and the final output just amazing as a graphics designer, canva simplify my work. Then other than AI canva give free templates it is super useful so a YouTube thumbnail or a Instagram post with a few changes I can create it. So Canva in my opinion it is super simplified to make a content as a graphics designer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canva?

Canva it's not work correct in all the time, it make mistakes like while creating a post the AI feature that is implemented very well but sometimes it give wrong result. So in my opinion they want to improve the AI feature. Then Canva always push the premium subscription because in free version there is so many limitations, so you want to use Canva for work you want to pay the premium then the premium also little by high.

"Canva Makes Creative Design Effortless and Versatile"
What do you like best about Canva?

As Canva is the multipurpose tool for any kind of photo and video editing along with graphic designing tools. The software is already integrated with different type of copyright free photos and videos website to be used as elements on the designs. Making creative designs becomes so much easier with canva. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canva?

The software is lashed with different type of designing tools and elements so it is quite difficult to pin point a particular con but if you are not a student and want to use this platform professionally for designing purposes then it's premium plan is little costly in the beginning according to my experience but if you can utilise it properly then it is totally worth it.

"Versatile Design Tool with Intuitive Use"
What do you like best about Canva?

I find Canva's user interface to be much better than other software options. The ease of working with it is very comfortable, whether I'm on a laptop or using mobile devices on the go. I really appreciate the wide range of editing options like background removal, filters, fonts, colors, and predefined templates, which offer more choices compared to other software. Even on mobile, it's simple to edit and refine images. I also love the feature where I can automatically pick up colors from a background or use fonts that are available in the image, which makes tasks much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canva?

The premium features are on the high side. I would say if they reduce it to somewhat comfortable, or get us some packages with very limited premium features available, that would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible Design Tool, Needs AI Enhancements"
What do you like best about Canva?

I use Canva for designing content for social media, presentations, and print marketing collaterals. I really enjoy its drag and drop features, which make it easy for me to design professional-looking artworks with minimal design knowledge. I also love the ability to import multimedia, edit videos and photos, remove backgrounds, and export the files to the desired format. This flexibility allows me to export files directly into the format required for sending to a vendor for print, adding to social media, or inserting into a website without needing to go to any third-party website for file conversions. The initial setup of Canva was pretty easy, and I've been using it since college, for over 12 years now. I still haven't found any replacement for it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canva?

I think Canva AI's features can be improved a lot. I noticed a lot of glitches and bugs when I tried to generate a short video using Canva AI. I tried it several times but didn't get the desired result. Plus, it also took more time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Versatile Templates and Branding, But Increasing Complexity"
What do you like best about Canva?

Canva is incredibly versatile, and over the past few years I have used it extensively. I have purchased course templates that I could easily adapt using my brand colours. This is also a feature I love: I can save my brand colour codes and easily use them for templates and images. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canva?

Canva added so many features, that it is getting too complex. User-friendliness has suffered tremendously, and I have decided not to renew my subscription, once my current subscription expires. The AI features are not exactly what I expect, images are sometimes really weird. Some AI features incur additional cost, which is not really what I expect, when I have a paid subscription.

"Efficient, User-Friendly, and Reliable Design Tool"
What do you like best about Canva?

I usually use Canva for family posters and sometimes for setting and aligning elements on an A4 paper for a print-ready file. I love the auto-save cloud-based feature; it solves a big problem for me by keeping my file intact despite sudden electricity cuts. The simple pick and place (drag and drop) design system makes creating designs fast and intuitive, even for my personal and college work. I also value Canva's large template library, which helps me start projects quickly. The built-in fonts, icons, and stock images reduce the need for external resources. The initial setup of Canva was very easy and quick, allowing me to start designing immediately without any complex installation or configuration. Overall, I highly recommend Canva because it is easy to use, efficient, and reliable, with features that significantly improve the design workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canva?

In my perspective, adding more advanced design controls, better layer management, and increased customization options would improve Canva for professional users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Designs, But Paid Version Lacks Impact"
What do you like best about Canva?

I really like that Canva is easy to use compared to Adobe, especially for small tasks like creating posts for my Facebook page. It's great that Canva's processing happens on their servers, so I can create graphics or banners even if I don't have a powerful machine. I find it easy to use and it saves a lot of time, especially when the tasks aren't too complex. I also appreciate the pre-templates Canva provides for designing banners, logos, or graphics. A standout feature for me is the ability to remove the background from images with just one click, making the process quick and efficient. Plus, I love that I don’t need to set up anything on my computer since Canva is an online application, and I can use it on my mobile too, making it highly accessible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canva?

I find the UI/UX of Canva a bit challenging because all of the features aren't right in front of you. You need to deep dive into their website to execute something, and some features aren't easy to find, even with the paid version. Another issue is creating more custom logos, graphics, or banners, which isn't quite doable with Canva. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Design for Everyone"
What do you like best about Canva?

What I like best about Canva is how easy it makes design, even for non-designers like me. The drag-and-drop interface is super intuitive, and there’s a huge variety of templates for everything from social media posts to presentations. Plus, the ability to access Pro perks, such as premium templates, photos, and other design tools, even with an education account, is a game changer—it really elevates the quality of work without the extra cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canva?

One thing I dislike about Canva is the lack of blending options for every layer, which you get in more advanced tools like Adobe Photoshop. It limits the depth and creative flexibility in some designs, especially if you're aiming for more intricate effects or trying to achieve certain visual styles. It would be great if Canva offered that feature for finer control over design elements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Use with Abundant Customization Options"
What do you like best about Canva?

I really like how we can personalize our presentations and posters with so many options to choose from. I use the templates the most because they save me time; I don't have to think a lot about which template to use. I can easily search for any type of template I need. Canva makes it easy to create various types of posters, presentations, videos, and documents. The initial setup was easy for me as a beginner, and I think it would be easy for many people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Canva?

There are so many things i cannot access as i use the free version. I would really like if there were more options for free, and if we could download things in better quality it would be nice. Sometimes it also lag a lot if we are making a big project or presentation . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
