Piktochart

Avantages

What I love most about Piktochart is how easy and intuitive it is to turn text into polished, professional visuals. The AI-powered "text-to-report," "text-to-presentation," and "text-to-infographic" tools save me so much time, especially when I'm under a tight deadline. These features quickly transform complex information into clean, engaging layouts that are both visually appealing and easy to digest, which has been perfect for my content needs. I’m also impressed by how customizable everything is—Piktochart provides a great balance between automation and creativity.

Inconvénients

The only one little downside I've noticed is that sometimes when downloading If I don't pick the option download as pages I get an infographic output which I normally change option and am good to go thanks to the flexibility of the platform.

It's lightweight tool , although effective ,I see it as the perfect introductory to the AI world.

Avantages

I like its utility, it helps me save so much time without having to worry about design and coming up with ideas of what to write!

Inconvénients

I want to be able to have the dimensions preset and brand colors be more clear as to what elements of the page they go to.

Avantages

This has been the secret catalyst to my work.My presentations have been superb since the day I started using Piktochart.The experience of high quality service and it's flexibility makes my work easier.Has excellent features for focusing on beautiful graphic designs and data visualization.

Inconvénients

Have used it to create a pitch desk,note on my sales and growth.Has done wonders when creating reports because it is easy to use and its compatibility.I love it.

Avantages

From day one, I knew I was missing the point especially on my graphics. I used to higher expensive designers to do even the most straight forward jobs. All thanks to a game changer tool. I save money and get brilliant results. Nothing like prior knowledge in Piktochart.

Inconvénients

Best. I give Piktochart five stars. Nothing to complain about.

Avantages

I liked the user-friendliness and the ease of importing media

Inconvénients

I am looking forward to user guides and specific templates. I think the infographics should have more options for smaller/ different sizes

Avantages

I love the flexibility of the tool, the ability to easily create templates which I can reuse when I need to produce 50 similiar report quickly for instance, and the highly intuitive UI.

Inconvénients

Thats its cloud based and subscription based but its a very minor issue since it has always worked perfectly and is regularly receiving new features.

Avantages

It helps gives you choices for things you have in your head, and that "aha this is exactly what I wanted", is especially for people in our industry where were are data experts but not visuals experts. It makes our presentation much much simpler and prettier :)

Inconvénients

Moving items between the different pages can be tricky at times, takes some practice. Please also add in the ability to add in customize colors that are usable across the different projects. Having to type in the specific colors required for each project can sometimes be a hold off.

Avantages

My team and I construct weekly infographics from articles I write. Piktochart is an intuitive tool for transferring dense text into visually captivating content. Piktochart's vast and ever-evolving template library streamlines our process and ensures varied and eye-catching designs.

Inconvénients

Truly, there isn't any feature or aspect of Piktochart that I would like to see added or changed. This product is perfectly designed for our needs.

Avantages

I’ve been using this platform for more than 7 years and continue to be impressed with the high level consistency and performance. It’s incredibly easy to use and produces professionally looking infographics and presentations even if the user has limited design skills. I highly recommend this platform.

Inconvénients

Copying text from a word document or other outside sources doesn't paste into projects.

Avantages

I've used Piktochart for over 6 years now and I love it. From daily lesson plans to self-paced sub plans, the platform allows me to make visually engaging, interactive materials that students can use to access their learning and deepen their understanding.

Inconvénients

The only complaints I have are related to Piktochart's ease of use with Canvas; the embed feature doesn't work very well and can sometimes make it a challenge to present the slides easily on that (Canvas) platform.

Avantages

Piktochart offers a wide range of templates to choose from, so I can quickly create stunning visuals that capture attention. The editing features are extremely intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy to customize my designs to fit my needs.

Inconvénients

There are no downsides to the tool as it provided everything I needed for the job, making everything great.

Avantages

Piktochart makes presentations and publications much easier, convenient and accessible. It suggests ideas or templates that can either allow you to already start with something or make a project on a blank canvas. It gives a lot of opportunities to be creative and harness productivity. There is no need to worry when a gadget shuts down unexpectedly since the software automatically saves the preexisting project. There are a lot of objects, colors and elements to choose from as this makes the project or presentation much more appealing and interesting. The free version of the software allows you to make five active projects which is a decent amount, Also, it gives unlimited access to templates, images, illustrations and charts whether it is the free version or not. Consequently, even though you pay for a plan it is still affordable and practical.

Inconvénients

The free version of Piktochart only allows you to upload 100MB of images, saves a project only in PNG, obtains a watermark, and is not ideal for work since it only allows you to create 5 active projects only. Consequently, when placing a color code, it tends to adapt the color within the first few digits even though you are sill not finished typing it yet. Also, the software does not support a lot of languages and it needs a fast and reliable internet connection to be able to access features quickly.

Avantages

Piktochart is an excellent online tool to create graphics, especially for business services. It is a virtual software to make professional-looking infographics and social pictures in less than an hour.

Inconvénients

So the trial version of the tool doesn't have much good layouts or designs which can be used for business presentations. And the price for a pro account is quite high compared with the competitors

Avantages

What I love above all with Piktochart is that the graphic designs I produce with the software really look good and not like these cheap designs you get from similar online apps.
Composing infographics with it is plain sailing
We keep coming back to Piktochart for this reason.

Inconvénients

I love their templates and they offer a good bunch but obviously one would always want more of those.
Their "inspire me" section is great but once you've found a great template you can't make it your own (or I wasn't able to spot how rather)

Pourquoi passer à Piktochart

Avantages

Piktochart is east you use. I have ideas in my head, but I am unable to get them on paper, as I just do not have those skills. Piktochart makes this much easier for me.
- Good templates as jumping-off points.
- Drag and drop editors - no need for HTML
- Easy exporting options
- Pretty intuitive

Inconvénients

I don't really have any complaints about Piktochart - especially at the price point. There may be "better" products out there, but the value prop is right on.

Avantages

Offers great template for any use, social media, informal and formal presentations.

Inconvénients

It doesnt have mobile compatibility to work anywhere.

Avantages

Great software, I used it daily throughout the COVID lockdown. They have templates for everything (not just reports, they have social media post templates too, etc).

Inconvénients

The software is pretty buggy. It's not anything you can't work around, but it does get very annoying when using it for multiple hours daily.

Avantages

It's a simple and easy to use software that allows to make infographics and presentations quickly and without any effort. It offers templates that can be edited and modified, change the text, the font, place our own images or those offered by the software. It allows me to organize the information in an appropriate way by dragging and dropping elements and adding texts, it has several graphics options that can be adapted to any type of data, I can also insert YouTube videos. I like the tools and elements offered to personalize and enrich the content I want to publish, without having to know the code or the graphic design.

Inconvénients

I really like Piktochart, it has been very useful in my work o I have nothing bad to say about this software.

Avantages

I am a geek and love my tools, which is why when Piktochart came out in 2015/2016, I jumped right in and started creating. Although I have no formal graphic design background, Piktochart makes me look as though I do. If you follow some simple design rules (regarding the proper use of whitespace, alignment, proximity) it’s hard to create something ugly in this program. My clients continually compliment me on the infographics, posters, and social media covers I make.

Inconvénients

This is not a con...but rather kudos for how the company handles cons. Thus far, anything I have suggested that needed "fixing" or features that I wanted added, they have delivered. That is pretty impressive. They also keep in touch with their users, which is amazing.

Avantages

I love this tool. Piktochart is very intuitive and easy to use. It is especially useful to creating infographics or email banners. There is a decent level of functionality in terms of styling, colour, shapes, and transparency, with an excellent store of free images and graphics to use. You can also upload your own imagery as needed. Once you have your graphic elements chosen, it is very easy to adjust and manipulate them to create the effects you want. Our team uses this tool in place of a graphic designer for smaller projects.

Inconvénients

There are some limitations in terms of the space of your "canvas" and some font and shape restrictions. It's certainly not in the same category as a design tool like Photoshop but for the price it's a good option for any marketing team. We tend to use Piktochart for very specific design needs and rely on the graphics department for more complex work.

Avantages

First of all, piktochart most relevant advantages imply simplicity, functionality and convenience. As an English teacher, I always need to provide students with engaging explanatory materials, capable of delivering complex messages in the most simplistic and understandable way. With piktochart you are able to do this and more, at a very convenient price. The layouts ae attractive and engaging. My students love appreciating my piktochart explanations, basically made for explaining grammar or functions within the language.

Inconvénients

Truth be told, the amount of layouts and fonts might be a little limited to say at least. However, for its final price, this issues do not interfere with its other considerable perks and pluses.

Avantages

I love the cost of the products. I love how simple the UI and navigation is for the product.

Inconvénients

The only thing that I dislike is that their is currently no option for unlimited uploads. I know it is something that may be in the works, once there are a few more plan options Piktochart will be a fully perfect product.

Avantages

The best quality that this application has is the speed and simplicity of the application in letting you design any type of art you need at the moment. Having an easy access to the application through an email, being registered in the web page

Inconvénients

I'd like if the space for Uploading images for a free user can be more than 40 Mb. It seems very less when you want to do a long one and do multiple edits. I wish they had a few more template options to pick from. I am not sure if there is a community template area I have not checked out, but that might be cool too. I'm sure it is necessary to advertise, but my office does not budget to pay for a subscription. We use the free version that includes a watermark/boilerplate for Piktochart on everything we create.

Avantages

As an elementary classroom teacher, I use Piktochart to create various learning posters for classroom display. This helps me save money from having to purchase commercial educational learning posters from local teacher supply stores plus my self-created posters are more relevant and in-tune with specific content that I am sharing with my students.

Inconvénients

I love everythings about Piktochart. I don't have any complaints about this wonderful software/online application.

Avantages

Possibility to create visually interesting infographics in an easy way.
Variety of templates to use online and offline.
Very customer friendly usage.

Inconvénients

Just a few options to upload data for chart visualization in a financial report chart, I would also appreciate more chart options.

Avantages

I most appreciate the ease of use and how it is possible to be creative in my efforts.

Inconvénients

There are no cons. I highly recommend Piktochart.

Avantages

Their customer service team is to die for. I have had an awesome heavenly experience interacting with them. They were always there to support me with my little-big queries and doubts.

Inconvénients

None which I can think of according to my experience

Avantages

Although there are other templates, styles, and formats available on Piktochart, I think the aspect where it really shines is creating Infographics. The templates available for infographics are beautiful in all honesty. If you are looking for an online graphic design tool to design infographics more specifically, I would definitely recommend Piktochart.

Talking about the interface, as far I'm concerned, I don't think the interface is in any way complicated or clumsy. The interface is very neat with lots of white space and simple to make use of in my opinion. There is a really cool addition to the interface now called brand assets where you can extract colors from images and set up custom fonts to use in your designs.

The blog is easily accessible from the main dashboard to learn more about using Piktochart and other useful tips. Piktochart is cool graphic design software that is neat and easy to use. Please note that I've never made use of it on a mobile phone before.

Inconvénients

I think the free plan is just too limited to the point that it's almost non-existent. Don't even bother with the free plan if you really want to get anything out of Piktochart. Piktochart isn't generous at all with their free plan compared to other graphic design tools that I've made use of. The PRO plan is worth it though.

Avantages

User friendly
I don't have experience with infographics designing but I learned myself to become a infographic artist with the support of Piktochart.In Sri Lanka,there is no institutions to teach infographics.

Inconvénients

Better to connect with Digital Data Collection tools
Eg.Kobotoolbox

Pourquoi passer à Piktochart

Avantages

Where to start? This platform is amazing, and makes me look amazing. Completely easy to use, WYSIWYG, intuitive software program. Tons of beautiful template designs available for use with a free account, but the options on a paid account are really amazing. Well worth the cost, especially with the rates that they offer for non-profits.

With this program and 10 minutes of effort, I can develop professional flyers, posters, and infographics that look incredible. Just don't tell anyone how easy it was.

Inconvénients

It can be a little tricky editing on Safari, something about the page layout makes the bottom of the screen hard to see. Only thing I can think of, this tool makes me look like a million bucks.

Avantages

I can choose a wide range of templates and styles for my Infographic, with just drag and drop I can make something good-looking. It also comes with free-trial which is helping me a lot

Inconvénients

The paid version is too pricy for the feature they offer. Layering is also a bit difficult for me, because the graphic keep overlapping each other

Avantages

We switched to using Piktochart several years ago to complete our Annual Report for our Commission, City officials, and the citizens. The ability to have more visuals versus text was one of the driving factors along with ease of use. We have been able to create stunning reports.

Inconvénients

The only thing I can think of is it would be a great addition if the graphs/charts could be more custom tailored to our needs. Some of them did not work as we had hoped and ended up creating them in Word and importing them as a JPG. Other than that, I think it is a great program.

Avantages

Piktochart is extremely easy to use. Even if you are not a designer, this helps you easily design flyers, banners, infographics, etc. They have so many templates available so it's both fun and easy to create content. The price point is pretty low and definitely worth it!

Inconvénients

They used to have more fonts, but recently removed some basic ones I use like Arial. They still do have a lot of fonts available though.

Avantages

Very easy to use, intuitive. Ample ways in which you can customize your data results and visualizations to accurately tell your story.

Inconvénients

More healthcare images would be useful. I work in Public Health and require a plethora of images, in particular, ones that reflect our diverse communities.

Avantages

The vast number of templates really helped me to build the perfect presentation. The usage of colours in the presentation is great! They've updated the software now with more icons and I could find all the icons related to finance easily.

Inconvénients

I don't have any major complaints as of now. For the price point I think its really value for money!

Avantages

Very easy to use, beautiful pre-designed templates and several charts options similarly to Excel.

Inconvénients

Lack of integration with Excel or Word, as we use Office365 and not much Google Sheets.

Avantages

- easiness to use, you can import data from excel or google sheets.
- high-quality pdf downloaded can be modified using another software (es. Illustrator)
- you can upload your own graphics, also to be used into graphs (svg).
- really great real-time customer care and troubleshooting support
- many templates available

Inconvénients

- icons available within the app are not very interesting, and many are missing.
- I would like to be able to customize more the graphs generated
- colour management could be improved

Avantages

We are thrilled that Piktochart provides so many modifiable templates for presentations and posters. It allows us to reduce the time in creating individual layouts for different projects.

Inconvénients

Our biggest drawbacks center around photos. It would be nice to be able to upload a photo bigger than 2.0MB. Also, it would be nice if we could make picture frames that fit the page exactly.

Avantages

The software is easy to use and makes you feel like a designing pro! Our company was relatively new when I started working there and didn't have a communications team to design our handouts. I had previously used Piktochart in my personal life and recommended it to many of my colleagues who needed to create content. Piktochart makes you feel like you are a designer and has great tools for making your work your own!

Inconvénients

Sometimes it is hard to figure out what size the documents are that you are creating until you download/print them. There have been several times where I thought a document was 8 1/2 x 11 until I printed it and had some issues with sizing. I think it would be helpful for the documents to be more print ready as opposed to just primarily being, what appears to be, more of an online creation platform.

Avantages

Export to pdf good color and printing abilities

Inconvénients

Not canva expensive pay for play and could offer more for the price

Alternatives envisagées 

Avantages

I like that there are various templates to choose from and even after selecting the templates, I still have creative control to change the blocks accordingly.

Inconvénients

Not much of a dislike, but it lacks transitions or animations that would help with the presentation.

Avantages

Helpful and amazing templates. I see that the team keeps updating their templates quite frequently which keeps me inspired. Great features for data Viz.

Inconvénients

There's nothing that I didn't like. Most of the features are helpful for non designer like myself

Avantages

Pikochart does a great job of automating a professional looking design for our presentations. We also use Prezi and Piktochart is MUCH less time consuming.

Inconvénients

The major flaw with Piktochart is the search feature. It simply does not return results consistent with the the words used in the search... even when you use the exact name of the Pikto. If you don't have hundreds of files, it won't cause that big of an issue.

Avantages

I think that Piktochart is definitely one tool that people tend to overlook and use tools like Canva instead. However, I found that Piktochart can be very helpful for graphic design projects that are longer or more intensive. What I really like about this software is how versatile it is and how it can be used for a multitude of different projects! I have especially loved using this for long posters or banners, as there are options to keep extending the page to make long projects. This is definitely better than the options available on Canva and other similar tools.

Inconvénients

What I like the least about this software is that it can become a little unresponsive when trying to export the charts that I had just spent so much time on. This can be a little scary in the event that the page crashes and my work is not saved. However, most of the time, this is not a major issue and I am able to export my charts in different types of formats.
