### "Best Tool for Infographics."

June 19, 2022

5.0

Developed infographics Job aids with ease that no other tools can match.

Pros

Other infographics tools have templates as well, but it's difficult to decide which one is best for our project. Here, decision making is facilitated by the use of a template categorization.

Cons

Less business presentation templates with no animated assets.

### "A Must-Have for Visual Analytics "

December 2, 2024

5.0

Piktochart is an amazing product that has transformed my basic pivots into a story that makes the data more easily received.

Pros

My most recent favorite thing about Piktochart is the new AI feature. With just a little prompting, a visual is created for you.

Cons

The ability to adjust the charts is very limited. I use Piktochart as a data analyst to make my results more visually engaging but many times the labels overlap, and the data is hard to see clearly.

### "Simple online tool to create social images & appealing graphics"

July 6, 2022

3.0

With Piktochart, one can whip up stunning graphics in minutes without any graphic design experience. Another thing is that they have so many templates available to choose from. And one last & important thing is frequent updates to their software.

Pros

Piktochart is an excellent online tool to create graphics, especially for business services. It is a virtual software to make professional-looking infographics and social pictures in less than an hour.

Cons

So the trial version of the tool doesn't have much good layouts or designs which can be used for business presentations. And the price for a pro account is quite high compared with the competitors

### "A Game-Changer for Communicating Complex Information"

November 13, 2024

5.0

PiktoChart has significantly improved how I communicate complex ideas. Instead of relying on lengthy emails or meetings to explain intricate concepts, I now use visuals to break down information into digestible chunks. This approach has helped my team better understand data, making them more engaged and proactive in addressing key issues. Overall, PiktoChart has made it easier to convey important business information in a way that resonates with both my team and external stakeholders. It’s no longer just about presenting data—it’s about telling a story. And PiktoChart has given me the tools to tell that story in the most engaging and effective way possible.

Pros

Cons

I’ve experienced occasional lag when working on larger or more complex designs, especially when dealing with numerous elements or high-res images. While not frequent, it can be frustrating if you’re on a tight deadline.

### "Piktochart is for real"

November 22, 2024

5.0

My experience is outstanding, I love this product, and I think the customer service is outstanding. I highly recommend this product, especially for entrepreneurs who need to keep their hands on the design end of their business.

Pros

I like how this tool integrates AI into its platform, which creates great designs. The interface is excellent, too.

Cons

I think some tweaks need to be made with its AI regarding how it interprets the text provided to it. Also, the AI design templates seem a bit limited.

### "Game-Changer for Effortless Visual Content Creation!"

November 13, 2024

5.0

My experience with Piktochart has been fantastic! It’s made my workflow much faster, and the AI tools are a dream for anyone looking to create beautiful reports, infographics, and presentations without needing advanced design skills. I strongly recommend it to anyone in need of quick and professional-looking visual content.

Pros

What I love most about Piktochart is how easy and intuitive it is to turn text into polished, professional visuals. The AI-powered "text-to-report," "text-to-presentation," and "text-to-infographic" tools save me so much time, especially when I'm under a tight deadline. These features quickly transform complex information into clean, engaging layouts that are both visually appealing and easy to digest, which has been perfect for my content needs. I’m also impressed by how customizable everything is—Piktochart provides a great balance between automation and creativity.

Cons

The only one little downside I've noticed is that sometimes when downloading If I don't pick the option download as pages I get an infographic output which I normally change option and am good to go thanks to the flexibility of the platform.

Pros

I love the convenience of creating high-quality, professional materials for our learning and development programs.

I would like to have our brand colors default at all times. More timeline options and AI templates.

### "Piktochart Perfect"

June 15, 2022

5.0

I am in learning and development and know the value of reducing my learners' cognitive load. I believe that a well-designed infographic can have much more impact on learning transfer than a data-dump slide deck. The marriage of graphics and content makes for strong mental models which leads to learning transfer.

Pros

I am a geek and love my tools, which is why when Piktochart came out in 2015/2016, I jumped right in and started creating. Although I have no formal graphic design background, Piktochart makes me look as though I do. If you follow some simple design rules (regarding the proper use of whitespace, alignment, proximity) it’s hard to create something ugly in this program. My clients continually compliment me on the infographics, posters, and social media covers I make.

Cons

This is not a con...but rather kudos for how the company handles cons. Thus far, anything I have suggested that needed "fixing" or features that I wanted added, they have delivered. That is pretty impressive. They also keep in touch with their users, which is amazing.

Reason for choosing Piktochart

Comfort level and ease of use.

### "Emails don't have to be boring"

February 18, 2020

5.0

I think Piktochart is one of the best visualization tools available. it's super cost effective and very easy to use. Its changed how I choose to communicate with my teams; cheesy but true, a picture is really worth a thousand words.

Pros

I like everything about this software. I have been using it for years to take super complicated business ideas/emails and converting them into info graphics and visual data. I even take some project schedules and use pikto to create timelines because no one in my organization knows how to read a gant chart!

Cons

I wish there were a way to conceal private work. We have security requirments at my office that sometimes require we not house info online unless it's locked away from view (even on a password account) I do wish that the icon library was larger, I find myself always using the same one's because the icons available are just not suitable for the communicaitons I make. and timelines...I make them so often manually, that it would be great to have some additional templates that can be used right out of the box

As a college student, Piktochart is my best friend for making good infographics and charts for my Presentation assignment. Besides infographic, I can also make some banner graphics and posters with this which I think very good.

Pros

I can choose a wide range of templates and styles for my Infographic, with just drag and drop I can make something good-looking. It also comes with free-trial which is helping me a lot

Cons

The paid version is too pricy for the feature they offer. Layering is also a bit difficult for me, because the graphic keep overlapping each other

My graphic design workflow (data visualization) has sped up a lot; this app generates professional and smart graphs based on tab sheets

Pros

Illustrator) - you can upload your own graphics, also to be used into graphs (svg). - really great real-time customer care and troubleshooting support - many templates available

Cons

\- icons available within the app are not very interesting, and many are missing. - I would like to be able to customize more the graphs generated - colour management could be improved
