Free Graphic Design Software

Good designs for your business are extremely important. If you are a small business with a tight budget, you might want to opt-in for free graphic design software.

Finding a good and free graphic design software for such tasks can be tricky. Having your designs look professional is important for the image of your business. These designs for your business could include flyers, business cards, banners on social media, banners on your website, or just general marketing material.

But, it may cost you a small fortune to hire a professional designer every time you need a new design. To purchase and learn design software, like Photoshop, can also be expensive. But worry not! There are a few free design software out there in the market. We have done our research around and we definitely recommend the following two:

Canva

Canva is a great software to use if you’re starting out or don’t have a lot of time or money to develop good looking designs from scratch.

If you are starting out and need a few things designed for your business, Canva is the best software to use. Canva is completely free to use but they do have a paid version for advanced options. For 99% of the design work, the free version will work perfectly fine if you run a small business. The free version comes with over 8000 free templates you can use for flyers, business cards, presentations, newsletters, and a lot more. Free stock images are also available.

If you need the features of the premium package, the pro version costs $12.95 (R225) per month if billed monthly. You can check out their premium package here.

 

GIMP

GIMP Is the free and open-source equivalent to Photoshop that has many powerful features!

It is a free design software available for download on your Mac or PC. With so many powerful and useful tools, GIMP allows you to take your design work to the next level. This is a great tool to use. It does not provide the same kind of template library that Canva offers, but if you need to manipulate an image GIMP has all the tools you will need.

Using a combination of Canva and GIMP gets you the best outcome without having to hire a graphic designer. Canva for a template of the design you are wanting to create and using GIMP to manipulate any images that you will be adding into the Canva design gets you the best outcome.
