Canva is a fantastic platform, with simple and practical features.n design models and posters, self-explative at the time of editing and intuitive for the standardization of them.simply amazing.
Another negative point is the fact that you are not able to manipulate the material when you download it, it is a little frustrating.
It's just perfect for small businesses. On the one hand because it's a great price and on the other hand because it's extremely easy to use.
The only defect of this app is for sure that it is not completely free. For those who do not use it professionally or are not yet able to invest money it ends up becoming bad.
Easy to use for a great price. I love being creative on canva and seeing how I can make a template my own.
The inability to remove watermarks without the paid version. This prohibits a user from downloading their design and further editing it without a blurry version.
My 45 year old, family-run company enjoys the advantages of a very good reputation. However it takes a LOT of creative work to stay there in our extremely competitive field.
We struggle with putting our so much information to our community quickly that sometimes the product of our communication is boring and disregarded because no one reads.
Overall google data studio serves the purpose nod ioubt and creates very impressive dashboards with great customization. Just the statistical tools can be even more improved.
The bad part about Data Studio is how often the software crashes and I have to stop all my work to fix it.
Making a dashboard for our team to use internally was so fun and intuitive, we developed a customer-facing dashboard that allows users to make exciting visualizations of their data.
Importing data can often be a pain and it is sometimes quite difficult to set up connections to refresh data sources, which makes reporting more manual and time-consuming than it should be.
One of the very great option for creating great data visualization and dashboards with ease.
But If you are not a Data Analyst or you are not into data, keep it with the premade dashboards. The options and customizations can appear a little intimidating.
The data analytics has been really great and i liked it very much. Even the dashboard is very customizable and the data visualization that comes is very impressive and appealing.
It's missing a few features, and I've noticed a few bugs here and there.
Faith: My name is Faith. I'm a graphic designer and my company is Just Me. And my one to five rating for Canva is probably a four. I was using Adobe Photoshop before I used Canva, and it was just taking me a long time to boot up and it was super expensive and several of the tools were just very clunky and more in depth than I needed for what I do. I chose Canva because I really like it. It's easy. I can send things to other people to collaborate on. It's a very click and drag format, and it does a lot of the spacing for me, and it has amazing templates that I can customize to whatever I'm doing. Getting started with Canva was super easy. I just put in my name and email, signed up for an account and got to work. I highly recommend Canva, especially if you do social media content or anything like that because you can have it on your phone and your computer and sync changes between both of those, depending on if you're posting on social media from your phone or if you need a more heavy duty on your computer to post a flyer, that kind of thing.
Andrew: Hi, my name is Andrew. I'm an SEO manager. I give Google Data Studio a four out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. Along with Google Data Studio, we currently use Power BI in addition because Google Data Studio, while it's very powerful, it doesn't have all the features that Power BI does. However, Power BI lacks a great sharing interface, to be able to share the dashboards within our organization, and that's where Google Data Studio really shines. We chose to go with Google Data Studio preeminently because it's free, but also because it has great interface for sharing, and that was one thing we were definitely lacking with Power BI. Getting started with Google Data Studio was incredibly easy as compared to an enterprise level piece of software like Power BI or Tableau. Google Data Studio operates in the cloud. So really, as long as you have a Gmail account or a Google account, I should say, you're ready to go. For a new organization looking at Google Data Studio, I would make sure that it covers all your needs. You may find, like us, that you need a more enterprise level piece of software, like Power BI, Tableau. There are many data digitalization tools out there. Google Data Studio does a great job. It doesn't have all of the features, but it's definitely a great tool.
Prioritize real-user-identified key features according to your needs to find your best fit.
