    For self-publishers, Marq is the best option, in my opinion. I have recommended it to others and they have been also amazed at how beautiful their end product looks and how easy it is to export and get the printers. A win win for everyone involved in the process of creating magazines and marketing materials.

    For creative and captivating presentation slides where you are pitching your ideas to the team, for quick and well-presented pamphlets for the event board, irrespective of university or workplace. I would definitely recommend using existing templates from VistaCreate instead of AI-generated images that are messy and crowded, so you connect with the audience better, and also, of course, people will take it seriously as well..

    It's a fantastic tool, be it the free or paid version. You can choose different templates from many listed categories and change styles with palettes, add music to your images, and choose from a variety of fonts. All these features are for free users. You unlock gold if you have a paid version of VistaCreate. Some additional useful features like background remover, AI writer, object remover, resize, and many varieties of templates are only for premium users. I give 9 because additional premium useful features are not available for free users

    I think if we had found Canva first we would have probably chosen it as our platform. We had already invested a lot of time and energy into developing multiple templates and branding standards in LucidPress

    I like to give a chance to other products and try them out. As far as my experience is concerned, I liked the feature of VistaCreate, with palettes, which totally changes the mood and tone of the image. That's something I didn't find in Canva. Additionally, the simplicity and user-friendliness of VistaCreate instead of being crowded with too many features. It's simply the best.
