Canva Connect

As a longtime Canva user with over a decade of experience, I had high hopes for the Canva Connect integration with my Shopify store. However, I haven’t found it to be a significant improvement over my usual workflow.

While the idea of seamlessly pulling designs directly from Canva sounds appealing, in practice, it doesn’t seem to add much value. Downloading designs from Canva and uploading them to Shopify manually feels just as fast, if not faster. I also hoped the integration might unlock new design capabilities or streamline the creative process further, but that hasn’t been the case.

Additionally, I’m mindful of app bloat on my Shopify store and the impact it can have on load times. Since Canva Connect doesn’t currently save me time or provide a clear benefit, I’ve decided to stick with my existing process.

Overall, while Canva Connect might work well for others, it doesn’t offer enough of an advantage for my needs right now.
