Infogram vs. Piktochart

Infogram is great for making infographic-based presentations, leaving behind that look of the old PowerPoint graphics. It is also very good to create posters, maps, and other graphic communication pieces, particularly when there is a need for high-density information in a compact and attractive format. It could also be very useful for promoting ideas at social media, due to the same reasons. In short, it is a powerful tool for communication.

Piktochart is great for designing infographics that require detailed information to be presented in a visually pleasing way. The fact that infographics are automatically split into segments, or 'blocks' helps with designing professional looking content quickly. There is also a wide range of templates that can be used so there's no need to start from scratch.

• As with other web-based apps, you need a reliable internet connection.
• Sometimes you really wish to have more control over some graphics, to make finer tweaking.
• The price for the pro version (the lower tier above free) is currently at 19 USD/month when billed annually, which can be a bit much if you don't need to use Infogram regularly.

I have personally always had quick, friendly, and helpful responses from the Infogram team.

Infogram had the best balance between the quality and variety of graphics you can produce vs being easy to use.

Piktochart is cheaper than Canva, and better for building long-form infographics that require a large amount of data to be presented visually. It is also much easier to learn for new team members than Pixlr
