CardWorks gives us the ability to convey our business motto to our customers.

Pros

I like the versatility of the CardWorks software, it gives me many choices of artwork and designs. A great business card can attract lots of customers!

Cons

There could be more categories for artwork, being a farm limits the artwork choices and design ideas.

This product saves us time and money. Gone are the days of having to go out to have them printed and having to wait till they are done. It's so much nicer doing it in house. Not only that they come out so much better.

Pros

We are a company that has lots of new hires and this product makes it so simple to design and print ourselves. I'm not very creative but the templates make it so easy for me to make attractive and professional cards.

Cons

I didn't find any problems using this product.

CardWords offers a wide array of templates, themes, and preset designs to choose from eliminating the hassle from graphic design. The tools are easy to use and the results were fantastic. The hassle has been eliminated. Our business cards were created in minutes. I would highly recommend CardWorks.

Pros

CardWords made creating and designing our business cards fun. Professional business cards are designed in minutes. There was no need to out source saving us both time and money.

Cons

There is nothing that I found that detracts from Cardwords. There is no downside to creating professional business products hassle-free.

I am a freelancer writer/editor/designer. I don't limit what I can create. So, when I was first asked to create business cards for a client I looked into options. I had used cheap/free basic programs before this for my own. I wanted a better product for my client so I found CardWorks and gave it a shot. The results were stunning, way above what I had done for myself before that. I then created my own and began offering this service to my clientele. All of my clients and myself have been very impressed and highly satisfied with the cards that this programs allows me to create.

Pros

It is way better quality than the basic alternatives to creating business cards. It give you the chance to create high quality products for yourself and clients. It is easy to use. It is a fast and smooth process. There are many templates to choose from and the tools are more than enough to complete the project.

Cons

I don't have anything bad to say about CardWorks.

GREAT and best of all FREE!!

Pros

THE ease of use and functions on all NCH Software is ALWAYS the best features and Cardworks has TONS of FREE templates to USE!!

Cons

If you are one who loves to do the in-depth creative designs, it can be somewhat hard to upload- sometimes it is just easier to use the templates, which are great already!

Pros

Our team uses Cardworks to produce professional-looking business cards in minutes. It really saves our organization a lot of time and money not to have to outsource this function since we need a lot of business cards created for people from different ranks in our workforce. It takes out all the hassle and highly technical graphic design stuff and can be used even by our most inexperienced members. There’s such a wide array of preset designs, themes and templates to choose from.

Cons

I really couldn’t think of any flaw, but just hoping that they keep adding more nice features and options to keep the customer experience great.

Pros

Cardworks did not only make creating a business card easy, but it also made it fun. There are so many different types of themes to choose from. You can even make multiple business cards if you'd like to.

Cons

I believe that over time they will add more and more new features and ways to update your business cards. As long as they continue adding more features, I will remain a happy customer.
