Quick and Simple
What do you like best about the product?
I love that this website/app allows me to help my clients become self sufficient when it comes to creating content for their own social media and blog applications. Most of my clients are small business owners who appreciate the ability to quickly learn how to do tasks themselves so they don't have to constantly outsource something that should be quick and simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice to be able to bulk edit (delete, update, organize) uploaded content. I've used Canva for well over a year so my upload area is pretty cumbersome.
Ability to create and organize projects on the main page would be nice too. Ability to browse your completed projects by type or even the ability to tag your projects and search via the tags that you've created. That would be absolutely fantastic.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A lot of my clients get stuck when it comes to design, with all the pre-made templates and sizing setup they're able to choose appropriate templates and update with their own content. They find themselves less 'stuck' on things they feel should be quick and simple.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give Canva a chance, it's so quick and easy. You wont have to teach yourself photoshop to look like you know what you're doing. Canva gives you great template options and even has clip art built in. It will save you tons of time!

Replaces our need to outsource graphics - really good value
What do you like best about the product?
Using Canva in-house we no longer have to outsource our graphics, which has saved us a lot of money. It is extremely simple to use and really caters to the non-technical person. Especially for our social media posts, Canva helps us keep our media on-brand, saving our company colors and logos for quick access. Very happy!
What do you dislike about the product?
Really stretching to find dislikes... they could use some more features built in for graphs/numbers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No longer need to outsource graphics, or wait on a freelancer. Quick and simple! Can make an image in minutes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take a little bit of time upfront to learn the little tricks and shortcuts. They have some demos that are pretty helpful as well.
Canva is a Great Solution for Non-Designers and Designers Alike
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Canva for a few years now because it's the fastest way to throw together a great design for social media. If I need to make it fast—and have it look good—I turn to Canva. I'm a professional designer and so I have pretty high standards. Canva is not professional design software by any means, but it is SO much better than trying to use something by Microsoft to make a graphic. If I need to do a pro job, I won't use this, but I love it for a fast social media graphic.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, for no reason at all, your design will do something totally wonky, like revert back to an earlier version, move text off the page, delete an image, or wrap text in a weird, unexpected way. These quirks are really frustrating. I also find it frustrating that it's so hard to resize an image, and that there are only limited numbers of files available in the free version. As well as that in the paid version you have to pay for every user license. It's very expensive for what you get.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
An easy, fast way to make design that looks good. Canva gives great starting points, and if you stick with their templates, suggested fonts, and colors, it's pretty hard to go wrong.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're going to be using this on a professional level, you'll be disappointed and would be better off with the Adobe Suite. But, if you just want to make a quick graphic here or there, you'll likely be happy with it.

Nothing! I recommend this tool to everyone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool eliminates the need for a graphic design team, which is great for smaller businesses.

It's a great tool you'll want to have in your visual content toolbox.

I wish I had more control over how images are layered on top of each other.

Play around with it. It's a "Learn by doing" software.

What do you dislike about the product?
It can be difficult to execute an image search.

Canva: A Simple Way to Work Graphic Design Into Your Business!
What do you like best about the product?
Canva is extremely user friendly regardless of your experience creating graphics. I love that there are infinite template options, and they are all so visually striking. It's also helpful that the templates are all but finished, so if you need to create something in a hurry, it takes minimal work on your part to create something eye-catching.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more images, templates, and backgrounds that were free. There are some great paid options, but typically even the simplest image search leads only to paid clip art with no free options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are people throughout my business who have no graphic design experience who are able to create really nice, eye-catching pieces, primarily for use on social media (Facebook banners, promos, etc).
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take advantage of the great pre-made options when you're in a hurry.
My go to for visual content
What do you like best about the product?
Cloud-based, easy to use, free. Saves a lot of time and can be used by pretty much anyone. Projects can be accessed from any computer which is also nice. And you can upload your files if you don't feel like paying for stock photos provided by canva.
What do you dislike about the product?
Aiming with mouse to catch a small element.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Just use it for content marketing
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just start using it and that's it. Don't expect it to work like photoshop though.
Speedy Tool for Beginners to Pros
What do you like best about the product?
It's so easy to create beautiful ads and flyers!
What do you dislike about the product?
I would prefer if the whole tool were free to use. Now I have to search through included content prior to creating pieces. Also if you want to adjust the size or dimensions, you must pay for the service.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We utilize Canva for basic invitations, flyers, tri-folds, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try it out. The endless layouts are preconstructed and require so little effort on your end. Just upload a custom logo and picture and edit the verbiage, done.
Amazing graphic design tool for the non-designer
What do you like best about the product?
I love the premade layouts for when you need to put something together quickly but don't feel like mucking around in InDesign or other design tools. They have a wide variety of pre made font layouts, shapes and images, as well as highly customizable colours, fonts and more! Very easy to use and fit to your needs. Definitely has it's limitations, as would any free tool but fantastic resource for quick projects!
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the shapes are harder to customize, change the colour or the dimensions than others. I also find the storage of previous projects a little counter intuitive -even if you create sub folders it still shows you everything unless you click on the folders to filter the view. I wish they had a larger font selection in the unpaid version - but the premium seems very worthwhile!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sometimes I need to quickly put together a social media post or a flyer and I don't feel like taking forever to do things in InDesign so Canva is a great solution! I have a graphic design background but for those who are new to design programs or the graphic design world, Canva's pre made layouts and easy to use tools would be a great solution!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely start out with the free version to test out all the features - they also offer a great trial for Canva for Work to see if that works for your business needs. It is very flexible but does have its limitations. Sometimes the final versions in .png format aren't as crisp as you would get with InDesign.
