## Reviews

### "Canva continues to innovate" — 4.0/5

> **Eli** | *17 August 2026* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Canva has integrated AI fully and allows you to create content all in the same place. They have also streamlined several processes which makes it much quicker.
> 
> **Cons**: It would be nice if their shortcut bar and options would allow you to have your most used features easily accesible.
> 
> It is great-- love to use it and it is continues to be a quality product. Their customer service, once you connect with them, is very helpful

### "The app that does it all" — 5.0/5

> **Samantha** | *16 July 2026* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Canva has been an invaluable tool for our small business. We use it regularly to create professional advertisements, social media graphics, and marketing materials, and its intuitive design makes it incredibly easy to use, even without extensive design experience.&#10;We've been using Canva for years, and it continues to provide exceptional value for the price. The platform is constantly evolving with new features, templates, and tools that help us create high-quality content efficiently. It's clear that Canva is committed to improving the user experience and staying current with design trends.&#10;I highly recommend Canva to any small business owner or entrepreneur looking for an affordable, user-friendly, and powerful design platform. It has been one of the best investments we've made for our business.
> 
> **Cons**: The only improvement I would suggest is making the Trash feature easier to find. Whenever I accidentally delete a design I often have trouble locating the Trash folder and usually end up searching online for instructions. A more visible or easily accessible Trash option would make recovering deleted items much more convenient and improve the overall user experience.
> 
> Overall, my experience with Canva has been outstanding. I first started using it in high school for class projects, and it's been amazing to continue using it throughout my career. Watching Canva evolve and introduce new features over the years has been exciting, and it's clear that the platform is always improving.&#10;I recommend Canva to just about everyone. It's an incredible tool not only for business and professional projects but also for personal use. I use it regularly for my church as well, making graphics, flyers, and other materials. Canva has become a part of my daily routine, and I truly can't imagine working without it.

### "My Go-To Design Platform" — 5.0/5

> **MaryJane** | *3 June 2026* | Sports | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of use, image editing tools, and wide range of features are honestly unmatched. We use a collaborative account at Stars Vipers Katy, which makes teamwork and sharing designs incredibly convenient. Whether I’m creating graphics, schedules, flyers, social media posts, or branding content, Canva makes the process feel simple, efficient, and creative all at once. The possibilities genuinely feel endless.
> 
> **Cons**: There can occasionally be small limitations with certain design elements, formatting, or premium-only features, but overall I haven’t found anything significant enough to make me switch platforms.

-----

### "Great for Beginner Graphic Designers" — 5.0/5

> **Ashley** | *18 August 2026* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Canva has so many features that are useful for creative and design team members. There are endless templates to choose from, elements to add to designs, tools to enhance your photos and design, and more. It is like a more user friendly version of Photoshop and a great way for designers to get started. They even have tutorials on how to get started and use the platform. The premium version grants access to a lot more tools and is definitely worth the money. I used to also use it for minimal video editing, but have found that to be a little bit harder than graphics.
> 
> **Cons**: They have changed the video editing a little bit and I find that the changes they made, make it harder to edit videos overall.
