Canva - Pretty much the only image editor you need
Reviewed on 5/5/2022
Pros
Free version is very powerful and can do most tasks. Runs right out of Chrome. Easy to turn videos into animated gifs. I am very experienced with photoshop, and use Canva for most applications because the interface is simple, easy to use. Drag and drop functionality. Been using Canva for a long time, and it's always getting better and better - and the price for pro higher and higher.
Cons
I wish there was a few other ways to distort the images with more effects. More fonts would also be nice. It would be nice if they added a feature save your uploaded images in groups instead of just a long list.

Canva is an excellent online graphic design tool for me. It can be used for everything from making basic photo edits to designing social media images & presentations. It has so many features, and also comes for $12.95 per month. That's so affordable. There’s also a very generous free plan. The brand kit alone is enough for me to buy the pro version.
Pros
Canva has tons of templates that you can use directly or can be used for inspiration for your stuff. which can all be customizable to your preferred color scheme, and size depending on what you are creating! It offers a huge library of stock material that is SO quick and easy to access - including videos, and sounds.
Cons
I with canva gives us more flexibility while editing shapes. A pen tool could double my impression. They should add more backgrounds & templates. It starts lagging while editing a large file containing 50+ artboards.

Canva is an awesome app if you want to brand a logo
Reviewed on 2/5/2022
Pros
I use Canvas for my logos and watermarking my logos on to pictures. Easy to make your daily thoughts look professional. They have a free trail version but it is limited to what you can use as far as Backgrounds etc. Luckly, the full app is pretty inexpensive. It's worth the upgrade.
Cons
I didnt like the free version much because its limitations on selections but the paid version isnt bad.

Very good experience - I love using Canva.
Very good experience - I love using Canva.
Pros
This is one of my favorite platforms. It is extremely user friendly and easy to navigate. Although I have a good amount of experience with design, I think a person with very little design experience could easily use this! I used to use photoshop for design and have almost entirely started used this platform because I find I can design something much quicker with the same outcome!
Cons
I honestly do not have a lot of complaints as I find this platform to be very useful. My only small complaint would be that sometimes when I upload images the resolution is lower and it comes out a bit fuzzy.

Overall I would describe Canva as a superb graphic design tool probably best suited to small business owners, entrepeneurs or online marketers who want to create content quickly with design creations that can be easily adapted and customised to suit most platforms easily.
Pros
Quick and easy to use software. Canva has all I need to quickly edit photos, create logos, banners, ad posts or thumbnails for social media marketing purpose or other content creation, website or graphic design.
There is a very generous free service that allows access to hundreds of templates, designs options compatible with desktop, tablet and mobile devices. Uploading, downloading and sharing my canva designs with other platforms is very fast and easy and the designs even with the free service are of good professional quality.
Cons
The free service can be limited somewhat when it comes to accessing stock images ,the more popular and attractive images invariably restricted to the paid option. The paid service is fairly inexpensive however and for those using their own images, these can be easily uploaded for use in editing and designs.
