Xara Designer Pro

Really great for on-the-fly images for social media, blog posts, websites. It is extremely easy to use and new employees do not need to spend any time with training since its really intuitive. Less appropriate for graphic design like removing backgrounds, etc.

• Graphic art
• Social media imagery
• blog post images

• load times
• windows not opening
• glitching when copying objects

I like both and use both but for different things. Canva, I think has more templates overall. Support is better with Xara and my templates are already built in Xara. Also, detail attention is better in Xara. I have built very meticulous charts in Xara and even mocked up product designs here.

• Less time on boarding interns
• Easy to copy templates for uniformity across the brand
• Quick downloads
