– GIMP Review, Antonio T.
6. Plasfy
I’ll be honest–I had never heard of Plasfy until I stumbled upon it on G2. But after reading reviews calling it “the best Canva alternative,” I knew I had to give it a try. My signing-up process was a breeze, and getting started felt just as easy as using Canva, which is saying something.
They had a variety of design formats to begin with right out of the gate. From social media posts to business cards, flyers, and even Pinterest pins, everything was available. The setup felt intuitive, and it was super easy to pick a format, customize the design, and start experimenting with clipart and elements like text, shapes, and icons.

I found the logo templates sorted by business type to be super practical. Whether you’re in fashion, education, or finance, there’s something to get you started without spending hours searching.

The real highlight for me, though, was the overlays section. I discovered Plasfy packed with ready-made badges, sale tags, and web buttons that are perfect for social media promotions, online shops, and marketing materials. From Black Friday banners to Boxing Day and Cyber Monday badges, there’s no shortage of options to make your content pop.
These pre-designed elements add a polished, professional touch to my designs. I felt that this would save time for anyone trying to market their business or build eye-catching visuals. Note that these are not customizable with the free plan.
