Why teams leave

Why marketing teams are leaving Canva

Real complaints from real users, pulled from review platforms, community forums, and customer migration calls.

Canva is templates. Great templates, but templates. Every brand ends up looking like the top-3 Canva templates.

Canva Brand Kit stores the assets. Enforcement is manual. Anyone can drop off-brand images into a design without a check.

Canva Pro is $12.99/user/mo, cheap enough. But Canva does not publish. Every design gets exported and copy-pasted into your email tool, ad tool, and CMS.

Canva: Export as PNG or JPG. Publishing is your job.

What Blu does that Canva can't

Blu

Brand Designer

Generates on-brand images, videos, and pages from catalog and brand kit

Canva is manual template design. The Brand Designer generates at catalog scale, on-brand every time.

Blu

Lifecycle Marketer

Ships the creative through email, SMS, push journeys

Canva exports as an image. Lifecycle Marketer ships from the same platform.

Switching from Canva is easier than you think

Most teams are fully migrated and live within a week.

01

Import Canva Brand Kit assets

Logo, colors, fonts, brand voice notes. We translate to the Intempt Brand Kit.

02

Connect your product catalog

Once the catalog is connected, the Brand Designer generates pack shots, lifestyle scenes, and campaign creative at catalog scale.

03

Cancel Canva when Brand Designer covers your creative needs

Most teams keep Canva for one-off social posts and use Intempt for campaign creative and catalog work.

We were losing visitors before they signed up. Intempt's personalized experiences changed that - we started meeting people where they were instead of guessing. Once they're in, Intempt's automated email takes over and keeps the relationship moving. Acquisition and retention finally feel like one connected motion instead of two separate problems.

Case Study

StockInvest needed to turn anonymous traffic into registered users before any retention strategy could work. With Intempt's Experiences, they personalized the anonymous visitor flow, surfacing the right content and CTAs to boost signup conversion. Once users signed up, automated Journeys nurtured them through onboarding and deeper engagement, steadily increasing lifetime value.

Frequently asked questions

Canva is easier for a single social post. Intempt is stronger for on-brand campaign creative that ships across email, SMS, and pages.
