A fantastic tool with useful features that's sadly behind the competition.

4.0 last month New

Comments: In my pros and cons I compared Vistacreate directly with Canva, Kittl, and Microsoft Designer for obvious reasons. Because Vistacreate, Canva, and Kittl are all a similar monthly price, I consider this a fair comparison. Vistacreate is a great program. It works well. It has a ton of useful tools and you can use it to quickly create designs. The program felt like it was supporting me as the creator. However, with a significant lack of graphical assets and a poor search tool, Vistacreate is significantly harder to use to create a truly creative design. I was fortunate enough to be able to purchase a lifetime license of Vistacreate through Appsumo, which makes it an AMAZING deal that I would wholeheartedly recommend. However, at the normal price of around $120/year it is much harder to recommend VS the competition. If you stick strictly with templates and value ease-of-use, then Vistacreate is a great way to go. However, if you want more control over your designs, better integrations with other tools, more photos, graphics, icons and illustrations to choose from, then there are better alternatives to Vistacreate. At the end of the day, I still think the program is well worth the asking price. You get a lot of functionality for the money. If the other tools didn't exist, I would give Vistacreate a 5 out of 5. But because the competition is SO good, I have to give it a 4 out of 5 for now.

Pros:

- Fast, fluid and simple UI - Fantastic, high-quality template selection compared to similar programs. - Quick and effective background removal tool - Quick masks to transform any photo into a shape (better than Canva frames) - A useful "Brand Kit" tool to keep the primary logos, colors, and fonts nearby. I wish I could add more than 3 fonts to a single brand identity. However, you can have many brand kits available at once, so that helps. - The ability to quickly create video-centric content (Reels, Stories, Animated Intros) is simpler and faster to use than competing programs. It lacks some of the more powerful video-centric tools, but speed and ease-of-use is more important for multi-purpose tool like Vistacreate.

Cons:

- Although there are an OK amount of objects/graphics, it still pales in comparison to Canva and Kittl. This is the greatest reason I can't totally recommend using Vistacreate over these other tools. - The search functionality is way behind competitors. This is another BIG negative. (See below for more details) - Vistacreate needs better layer management tools. Right now it's only the very basic "Move Backward" "Move Forward" type of system. - The mockup tools are slightly behind Canva and Pixelied, and way behind Kittl. - Vistacreate has fewer AI tools than competitors (if you care about them). Although most AI tools still fall in the "neat gimmick" category, some are becoming truly useful. Regarding the search tool: For fun I searched "Astronaut Cat" on Vistacreate, Canva, Kittl, and Microsoft Designer: Vistacreate gave me nothing. Not a single graphic. It's easily in last place. It didn't even show me a single generic cat or astronaut graphic. Microsoft Designer was in third place. It gave me generic cat and space graphics but not a single astronaut cat. But at least it showed me something. It also makes up a little ground with its ability to create Cat Astronaut icons using AI. Kittl is strongly in second place, and not far from first. Kittl provided about 8 images of astronaut cats. But it also gave many different and unique astronauts, cats in space, and even a hamster and other animal astronaut images. Lots to choose from. Canva was the obvious winner providing over 20+ different astronaut cats, 15+ cat-in-space graphics, and tons of other various astronaut, cat, and space graphics.

Sucks

2.0 2 years ago

Comments: Easier to create than in VistaPrint, but doesn't work well, ie no resize, had to download PDF and upload it to Vista Print.

Pros:

The backgrounds and templates are good. There are a lot of choices.

Cons:

Could not resize my flyer. Customer service had to do it. Customer service is very inadequate. Simple questions are evaded and unanswered. Seemed inexperienced. Insulted me with suggestions that are obvious. Could not get the cart to show to print on Vista Print. Finally had to download the PDF from Create and upload it to Vista print. Seems like this program tries hard but misses the mark.

Happy to have moved from a well-known platform

5.0 4 months ago

Comments: Overall I LOVE Vista as the interface is simple, clean, easy to navigate; the free versions are perfect and of High resolution too! For a beginner, it is the perfect solution ;-) Thank you team!!

Pros:

The HD quality of the graphics when I download them. I moved from a well known and used service because of their bad image resolution .... even for paid versions!

Cons:

It can be improved with more feature choices like creating bulk graphics to schedule them to social media for at least 30 days. Or choose the view of our pages to show in vertical view. Or the ability to get free designs from other creators in Vista.

There are plenty of template options to get you started on any project or design. It is a pretty seamless experience overall and I definitely enjoy using it!

Pros:

I love how easy and quick it is to use this software! There are also a ton of options for templates and designs that are unique and not so basic.

Cons:

I think there could be improvement in having more font options and designs, there are a good variety of them, but definitely not enough compared to other software.

Lots of options but lacked in ease of use

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: I needed a professional presentation type project and it required way more customization that I had anticipated and the customization options were very limited (see other comments)

Pros:

Lots of nice professional options for templates

Cons:

Lack of basic shapes for the content gallery. Too many cartoon-y images. Not enough easy to find basic business things, maybe they exist but could not find even searching multiple ways and got too time consuming to continuously scroll through things. Also I noticed a lot of shapes, labels etc could not be customized both in height and width, but only in one direction so the proportions were maintained. I need long and skinny things and found a plethora of more boxy type shapes that could only be enlarged, but not stretched sideways or shortened vertically.

Simple graphics software

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: I tried vistacreate and since I adopted it, why?
Because of its simplicity (handling, functionality etc.) you need to create a logo, a facebook post nothing more simple you choose your model you deposit your image or your video and it's over, you forgot to put music on it! Damn then choose your sound in the library and you will make the happiness of your followers. This online software is a killer, really.

Pros:

Its ease of use is what I like about them, the software does not bug and the models are very good with excellent quality. The image library is provided. The videos are of good quality or even superior quality. drag and drop and it's easy, a considerable time saver using this software. I highly recommend.

Cons:

To be honest with you this software has no weakness that I could write negative words about.
