What is Canva?
The technical term for Canva is that it's desktop publishing software based in the cloud. So what on earth does that mean? In layman's terms, it means that Canva is internet and browser-based software that you can use to create graphics, social media posts, business stationery, posters, flyers, and even as a simple photo editor. It comes with a wide range of starter templates and a pretty intuitive interface that allows you to start creating with little fuss.
I like to refer to it as Minecraft for graphic design: it's a playground with a wide array of tools that you can get up and running, but like Minecraft, would you use it for very complex, high-spec projects? Probably not. However, having said that, we use it regularly for our own work.

What’s the difference between Canva and Canva Pro?
Canva is a free app that lets you create visual content like graphics, presentations, posters and more. You can use it to create social media images, blog posts, and all sorts of different marketing assets. Canva Pro is a subscription-based service that gives you access to design tools and features that aren’t available in the free version of Canva. If you’re creating visuals regularly and want access to a broader range of templates and design assets (a much larger photo and illustration library), Canva Pro might be worth the investment.
