Opiniones de Venngage

So far, our marketing team has been relying on Venngage almost exclusively for day-to-day graphic needs on all kinds of collateral. We'll be hiring an in-house designer soon, but Venngage has been a solid go-to for over two years. I myself am not a graphic designer by any means, but this tool has helped me put together some really polished, stand-out content. Even with a designer on board, I can still see myself using Venngage here and there for stuff I want to put together quickly on my own. It offers a nice set of icon/design options. The templates are good starting points as well, or at least make decent inspiration if nothing else. I find them difficult to customize though and prefer starting with a blank canvas most of the time.

Sometimes it's a bit laggy, but you can't really complain for a subscription. Our needs are a bit niche so I'm not always able to find the kinds of icons or graphs I want, but it's usually possible to work something out with what's available by getting a bit creative.

They have some of the templates that I like.

Even with 1st level of pay membership, all the templates that I want was in the premium business membership.

Range of templates to enable me to create good quality content.
Continuous updating of content and really helpful, informative & instructive blog to help me get to the next level.
Excellent customer support for when I get stuck.

One or two key features (automatic alignment of objects) have been in development quite a long time.
The jump to business pricing is too high for a sole trader like myself.

There are so many templates. It really is a designer's dream. I am the only marketing person, so it helps me pump out content and draw inspiration.

The functionality itself is very tricky and finicky. For instance, when you click to edit a text box, it will move its position 99% of the time, and then when you press undo, it freezes for a few seconds.

I love how easy it is to export and view infographics, at any stage of development, as PNGs, PDFs and even interactive PDFs (with clickable hyperlinks). If something's not right, you can just tab back to the active editor window, make changes and export again. Iterate to your heart's desire!

Every once in a while, for reasons I can't explain, some detail of design (mostly to do with fonts, I suspect) will manifest as just a little "off" in the export file format. Everything will render in the output exactly as it appears on the editing screen, except - mysteriously - for this one thing... It's not the end of the world, as you it can be resolved through trial and error; however it can be irritating, and this remains my one complaint about the platform.

There is a template for everything and they are easy to tweak and customize. Plenty of font choices. It is software designed specifically for infographics, so there is no clutter and no unnecessary features.

There is no gradient option yet for background colors. Sometimes I can't find a font I am looking for. Otherwise, no cons!

Venngage is very versatile and can be used to design pretty much any type of graphic. I started using it for work (creating annual reports for nonprofits to send to their donors) and now use it for lost and found flyers, dinner party menus, resumes, and much more.

Pretty much perfect, but I'd love to see more sophisticated color options, like a fading/ombre. Also very occasionally there are elements in the pre-made templates that can't be deleted, which you don't notice until it's too late.

Venngage provides you with the tools to turn your boring tables and charts into a story board with true meaning. The only people who will love Venngage more than you are those that previously had to make heads and tails out of your previous analytics.
My data driven reports are now more widely distributed than ever before thanks to Venngage and the value of my work has therefore been enhanced. Venngage has given my reports legs within the company, circulating to areas not previously reached.
On the rare occasion that you might have a question or need direction their support team is amazing and readily available. The chat mode is perfectly designed and may questions have been answered quickly and most importantly on the first try.
My wife is a graphic designer by trade and when I showed her my creations with Venngage she referred to it as "cheating"; to me that is the highest compliment from a designer.

Venngage has a great selection of templates, and it's very simple to customize the graphics to suit your business. It is also much easier to create graphs with this software compared to other programs I have tried in the past.

Working with layers can be tricky, and the font choices are limited, but overall I have no complaints!

To my surprise and delight, your online support was immediate. I love that as I typed, a little message popped up to say that so and so was looking and waiting for my inquiry. This simple feature instilled me with confidence that a real person was at the other end, ready to assist. Another feature I really like is the vast array of options, across all your templates and icons etc. But even more than this is, I like your labeling system. It makes my searching so easy. The ability to turn on and off various features, such as the `grid is great. I can see whether my text is lined up before I print. This saves me time and money. I also enjoy the fact that I can take your template, but still make it my own. This flexibility again saves me time, but still allows me to personalize my product as required. I find your whole suite of features so intuitive to use. A big thumbs up from me so far. Bravo Venngage.

I like your software, so the tone and intent of my following feedback is to encourage further potential improvement areas. I have two suggestions, based on my recent needs. First: when I save my designs, I would like to be able to copy and paste an existing design I have done and saved. At present, I only seem to be able to edit one of my existing designs. But sometimes I want to keep the earlier version, including its content, but add new content for another client's purpose and save this version too. Second, on some of your templates, I don't seem to turn on the grid feature. Third, I do like being able to embed a hyperlink to, for example, a website. What I want to do is use this feature, save as a PDF and email the PDF doc to a client. Eg a personal letter, with hyperlinks. But unfortunately, unless the letter is published online, for all to see, then this is not possible.

The varied options it gives is great along with being up-to-date with trends. For example, Valentine's special templates for the month of February.

Secondly, the fact that it is so customizable right from the colors of the gridline to the font of the legend makes it likable.

It's made my life easier with the graphs. I used to use powerpoint and excel for making charts/graphs and it was a pain.

I also like the options available in icons, makes it quicker for me to not go to a third party like iconfinder.com. I used to use that software to fetch icons and freepik for vector files and merge them in Adobe Illustrator. This software solves all the 3 purposes.

Lastly, I love the chat support. People are quick in replying and help solve my queries proactively.

I have yet not figured out how do you undo changes (3-4 layers backward).
I am a Safari user and Venngage works better on Chrome so if that could be leveled up, it would be great.

Another thing that bothers me is the fact that Venngage uses only google fonts. If I want to export any other font, I do not have an option. Because of that, I switch to Adobe when using other fonts.

I researched and requested this tool for my work as an instructional designer. I thought it would be primarily useful for job aids (which it is). What I didn't realize is how much I would use the icons and photos for training materials as well! You can export a document as a PPT file (Beta, but it's worked for me), and I load up the file with all the icons (colored with my company's color palette) that I can cut and paste into my training materials. This is a big deal, as I don't have to hire a graphic artist or buy icons.

For my job aids, it's equally helpful. Venngage has a branding feature that allows me to upload all the company logos and color palette info I want. That makes it so easy to grab a template, recolor and redesign, and publish as a PDF. I've been able to create several how-to documents for internal clients and it's amazing (to me even) how quick the process can be and how professional they look!

Bottom line: this product makes me look really good.

Per-user license. I'd like to allow colleagues to work on my documents with me but they can't without a license.

I appreciate the multiple templates and tools that simplify the process of creating a really awesome infographic. It takes minutes to create pages and documents that it would normally take hours to do or that I would need to outsource to a graphic designer. For the most part, I have found it simple and easy to use and pretty powerful. This ease of use combined with high quality output makes this a great tool for people like me who are not designers, but need something that create high-level output without enormous amounts of effort. Most recently, I used Venngage to create our annual report and I couldn't have been happier with the professional quality of the final product. Most importantly, it took less than a few hours of total time, including the creation of multiple chats and graphs.

I did find that there is a page limitation when creating a multiple page document. So, for our annual report, I had to create separate documents save them out as PDF, then use Adobe Acrobat Pro to combine them into one PDF. While this created an extra step, it was relatively easy to do so I was terribly bothered by it.

My favorite part of Venngage is the ease of use. It is really simple to create something unique and professional grade. I use Venngage to create inforgraphics, cards for social media posts, and photo content for email blasts as well. Once you get the hang of it, it's really easy to put together designs. I often use the same templates I have created over and over again. The free images are a definite plus as well.

The thing I like least are a few of the technical issues. I wish that I could import higher resolution images in my upload and export into even higher resolution for the finished product. Sometimes diminishing the quality of the photo in order to upload it into the Venngage system means that I cannot create posters or larger-scale images because of the pixelation that would result.

I like that you can find templates for almost all the things you like and need. You can use them as they are, just changing the text, or you can modify them as you like. I had a Premium account, therefore I benefited from all of their specifications.
I mostly enjoyed the Interactive PDF as it comes very in handy when you need to present some information and send it to your clients.
I also liked that they have a vast number of icons, photos and other that help you instantly :). You have everything you need just a click away and that save you a lot of time.
Some other great things that I only tried, didn't make use of them, was the Interactive part, where you can create polls, forms, tables. Aaand the chart part which is...more than great! It is so easy to create a nice visualization of your data and the "wow-ness" that you get after presenting it is amazing :)

I did encounter some bugs along the way, regarding text, resizing and placement, but the Customer Service was really helpful and now, I did they got rid of all the bugs, as they had some upgrades and modifications. I have to mention I had the Premium Account, therefore I had priority.

Venngage offers a fairly similar user experience to Canva, which is a big draw; it's easy to use, has gorgeous premade graphics, and enables simple manipulation to create custom graphics without needing a designer. The offerings are wide, which I really enjoy--you can create a lot of different things quickly and make them all look beautiful.

There's something about the interface that frustrates me, and I cannot put my finger on it. I find myself not finding exactly what I want/need, or getting frustrated with the UI pathways. Like I said, I prefer Canva for things like this.

I could start with a tutorial(and a whole library of them), so I didn't get frustrated trying to do something, and not having it work. All the templates, and ranking them from Beginner to Advanced.
Also, the grouping of the different templates, so I know where I can use them. I am a total failure with design/color, so the guidance is terrific

There's not much I don't like. I found it difficult to remember where to find and how to do the spread sheet at first. If I had just done the tutorial, it would have been fine.

Extremely easy to learn and use. There are so many different template options that visually show the capabilities of this software. I do a lot of marketing/advertising and this program allows me to crank out visually appealing graphics within minutes.

A limited number of photos and icons that are not always able to be manipulated. There are some icons I want to change colors and am unable to.

Easy to use. Shareable with staff, faculty and students, and very reasonably priced. The online interface is compatible with all browsers. There are plenty of free templates and pay templates are reasonably priced.

I really don't have any cons. The templates can be difficult to maneuver when changing colors and could use more fonts. It might be better if it had a way to copy formatting from one object to another.

Venngage is easy to use drop-and-drag, the graphics and icons are many and varied, and what you don't find as part of the software can easily be imported. Support is second-to-none.

There's not much I don't like about Venngage. I suppose if the Pro package was cheaper, i'd be using it.

I like the variety of templates and the fact that many are free.
I like using the catalog of templates to help guide my thinking visually. I can see a layout in my head but the templates help me determine what's quickly doable.
I also like that in cases when I don't see anything matching what I'm seeing in my head, I can make my own stuff!
I enjoy the newsletters of ideas too...very helpful.
Everything looks more professional and is quite impressive.
