PicMonkey vs. VistaCreate

It's great for a small- or medium-scale social media manager or graphic designer. I'm not sure if I'd recommend it for larger-scale projects or editing images with detail as I think it is missing some capabilities that something like Photoshop or Adobe Illustrator may possess, but it is a great tool to create professional-looking graphics with ease.

It's great for social media campaigns where you need to adapt pictures for different sizes for each social channel. With VistaCreate it's easy to modify all of them in a few clicks. It also works well with creating diagrams with cool statistics.

• PicMonkey was easy to learn and it is very user friendly.
• PicMonkey has a plethora of templates to choose from and keeps content fresh!
• There are always updates! My content never gets old as they are always adding new features.
• PicMonkey offers many "auto" options which makes the process fast and smooth, i.e. auto adjust, auto correct, etc.

• I think that PicMonkey could have more opportunities for raving fans (like me!) to act as affiliates for their products and services.
• I think that PicMonkey could make it more apparent on how to save themes. The Hub is great, but I think it is easy to allow that area to become messy and disorganized.

• Difficult to design content on mobile phone
• Mobile designs do not sync with desktop app

PicMonkey's usability is outstanding! I was able to learn how to edit my photos and create graphics in a short period of time. Between the tutorials and the amazing user interface, I felt like a pro! PicMonkey is very detailed but not so overwhelming that you miss out on great features.

To be fair, I have not had to use customer support, but I have found the website materials/instructions at PicMonkey.com to be easy to understand and the website (mostly) simple to navigate. As someone who is not the MOST tech-savvy in any room, I find it accessible and not intimidating; it gives me confidence to create the images that I know will be most effective for our purposes.

PicMonkey better suited my needs than Canva because it was easier to complete multiple items within one editing template. As a busy professional, I have to find time in between clients to push content out on Social Media or to email graphics to potential clients and PicMonkey has allowed me to create what I need very quickly without losing quality.

In my view, VistaCreate is easier to navigate and design content. The templates are fun and appealing. The availability of Shutterstock photos is endless. The version history is saved so that work is not lost. There is a brand feature that automatically selects color themes to support branding. It is easy to export content to your desired file type.
