Canva vs Photopea: Which is a better fit?

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.

Tanner K.: Hello, I am Tanner. I am the lead sales and marketing analyst at Form Tech Concrete Forms. We are a construction warehouse where we rent concrete forms and all the accessories that go along with it. In this review, I'm going to be reviewing Photopea. I give it a good four out of five. I have used in the past, originally coming up in graphic design doing Photoshop. It was a pretty heavy supplied software. It's very expensive, and especially for a company of my size, having a free version like Photopea is a great alternative. It lets me do everything that Photoshop allows me to do without the cost. Photopea is great because we use it for a lot of graphic design work, anything that is customer facing. We didn't really have a platform other than outsourcing it. Me, as an individual, was able to use my prior knowledge in Photoshop to transfer into Photopea as a free option to continue to supply the company with that great accessories and products, photos, and doing basic graphic design work throughout the whole company. Photopea is almost a strict clone of Photoshop. It has all the same tools that it uses, same layering functions. It's really close to the existing Photoshop, so if you really know how to work Photoshop, Photopea is a great alternative just as a free option. There are a little bit of ads, but if you can ignore those or turn them off sound-wise, and from there, it's pretty much like you're using Photoshop. So with Photopea, it has a lot of the same file capabilities as Photoshop. So keeping that organization of your brushes, your previous work tools, and being able to reuse graphic design projects to cut and paste onto new projects saves a lot of time.
