I agree, I will try and come up with one this week. I am sure my readers will love your insights. I tried checking your website, for some reason – I am unable to. Do you mind resharing your link?

I am looking forward for the post on Canva! :)

Hi Jayasurya, very nice to hear from you. Thank you for sharing your views about Canva, I have used the website before but mainly for digital marketing, posters and facebook posts. It is very convenient to use compared to the complicated softwares like adobe photoshop. I remember designing my first logos using Canva and a lot of images corresponding to quotes on my website. I am very pleased that they brought out the cloud model and revolutionised working on designs. For a novice like me, it was really simple and easy to use. I would happily recommend it to anyone. In fact, I have a post coming up on Canva in a few days time, would love your opinion and experiences of Canva.

I have never used Canva for presentations though. I presume it will work very well for marketing presentations and posting infographs. I am not quite sure how to use data from excel sheets, charts, etc from that. But for an online tool, it is pretty fantastic for what the website can offer.

I must admit though, I am big fan of cloud softwares, they have changed the way we look at softwares and supporting hardware. Anf frankly so many of them provide some really cool basic features for free..

Thanks for your insights into what we can do on Google sheets and what we can’t. I didn’t know about the ties with Google Sheets- that’ll def come in handy!

I’ve personally been using Canva and have sort of become a fan of it. Canva is primarily an online design tool predominantly used for making posters for walls, FB and Insta, website banners and many other cool stuff. When i was working for a confectionary startup, we couldn’t afford to hire designers for online marketing, or even for package design of our products- that’s when Canva with it’s collection of hundreds of designs, came in handy. You can also design your Presentation slides on Canva and copy/paste the screenshots onto on PPT- (it’s kind of raw a approach, but all my ppt slides have designs from Canva). The available bank of designs can be used to make your slides look nice and sleek!

Although it does charge about $10/month for a basic version i think it’s cost-effective.
