Canva - Pretty much the only image editor you need
Pros:
Free version is very powerful and can do most tasks. Runs right out of Chrome. Easy to turn videos into animated gifs. I am very experienced with photoshop, and use Canva for most applications because the interface is simple, easy to use. Drag and drop functionality. Been using Canva for a long time, and it's always getting better and better - and the price for pro higher and higher.
Cons:
I wish there was a few other ways to distort the images with more effects. More fonts would also be nice. It would be nice if they added a feature save your uploaded images in groups instead of just a long list.

Just keeps getting better
Comments: My go-to design product. I need to use PS and Rush sometimes for other design work I do, but on the whole, everything required for content can be done with a pro account.
Pros:
It's always improving. It used to look a bit amateurish, but now I don't feel like I'm missing out by not using Adobe design products.
Cons:
Saving to folders. There needs to be a way of creating shortcuts.
Alternatives Considered: Adobe Creative Cloud Express
Reasons for Choosing Canva: Many more features and stock images and designs.
Switched From: Pixelmator Pro
Reasons for Switching to Canva: I actually have a paid CC account as part of my package - but they don't have as many stock designs and images, or features.

Great design tool for small business & presentation
Comments: Canva is an excellent online graphic design tool for me. It can be used for everything from making basic photo edits to designing social media images & presentations. It has so many features, and also comes for $12.95 per month. That's so affordable. There’s also a very generous free plan. The brand kit alone is enough for me to buy the pro version.
Pros:
Canva has tons of templates that you can use directly or can be used for inspiration for your stuff. which can all be customizable to your preferred color scheme, and size depending on what you are creating! It offers a huge library of stock material that is SO quick and easy to access - including videos, and sounds.
Cons:
I with canva gives us more flexibility while editing shapes. A pen tool could double my impression. They should add more backgrounds & templates. It starts lagging while editing a large file containing 50+ artboards.
