Canva: the most visual and accessible way to create professional presentations

In a work environment where visual communication is increasingly important, presentations have become an essential tool to convey ideas, projects, and results. However, not everyone is a designer or has time to master complex programs like PowerPoint or Keynote. This is where Canva has revolutionized the scene, offering a simple, intuitive, and powerful way to create professional-looking presentations in just a few minutes.

Canva is an online graphic design platform that allows you to create all kinds of visual materials —from social media posts to posters, infographics, or presentations— without technical knowledge. Its success lies in the combination of pre-designed templates, drag-and-drop editing tools, and a vast library of visual resources (images, icons, videos, and fonts).

In the field of presentations, Canva has become a versatile and accessible alternative for both professionals and teams looking to streamline their communication.

Key features

Creating a presentation on Canva is fast and flexible. Users can:

• Choose a template from thousands of modern, customizable designs.

• Add text, images, charts, and videos through an intuitive interface.

• Apply the company's brand identity (colors, logo, fonts) using the “Brand Kit” feature.

• Collaborate in real time with team members.

• Present live or download the presentation in PDF, PowerPoint, or video format.

Canva also allows for interactive elements and animations, making presentations more dynamic and engaging without requiring advanced design skills.

Why Canva instead of PowerPoint?

• Ease of use: minimal learning curve; anyone can create attractive designs in minutes.

• Professional templates: thousands of designs optimized for different industries and purposes.

• Team collaboration: simultaneous editing and real-time comments.

• Cloud accessibility: work from any device without installations.

• Visual consistency: the “Brand Kit” feature ensures all presentations maintain the same corporate identity.

Beyond design, Canva has become a teamwork platform. Marketing, communications, training, and sales teams use it to prepare joint presentations, share materials, and maintain visual consistency across departments.

Its integration with Google Drive, Slack, Teams, or Dropbox facilitates collaboration without leaving the company’s digital environment.

Canva democratizes presentation design, making it accessible for everyone to communicate with visual quality and professional consistency. It combines simplicity, speed, and aesthetic results, making it ideal for corporate, educational, or commercial presentations.

In short, Canva represents a new way of understanding design: more collaborative, accessible, and efficient, where creativity depends on the idea, not on technical skill.
