What Is DesignEvo?
This company was created by PearlMountain. The focus is on ‘the research and development of graphic design software since 2006’. It is all about making graphic art easily accessible to anyone with an interest to ‘do-it-yourself’ and be proud. Another product that has gained widespread usage is FotoJet.
DesignEvo is really an online logo maker which can be used to help ‘small businesses, startups and individual business owners create professional logos with ease.’
It is really easy especially for those of us (myself included) who like to create and do things on our own terms and of course, with a somewhat ‘restrictive budget’.
Now the best thing about DesignEvo is that they recognize the importance of a brand – a logo is your ‘trademark or the characteristic’ of your business and it is important to see that you can easily incorporate your ‘brand’ when it comes to logo creation.
You need to keep a few things in mind like:
- simplicity
- customer trust
- visual ease (easy to remember)
- your company’s brand
DesignEvo wants to make this aspect of your business a surmountable task, reasonably priced, and an easy one.
What Are The Benefits
Of course, in order to make an informed decision, we need to look at the features that DesignEvo has to offer:
- easy to use – an easy learning curve
- simple, clean designs
- create logos for just about anything – social media profile, website or blogs, business,apps, to name a few
- easy to customize your ideas
- a huge database of millions of high-quality icons to choose from
- hundreds of fonts to suit anyone’s personal style
- a storehouse of 5000+ templates to choose from
- a wonderful zipped file of all you will need to print, emboss, attach your logo to anything associated with your business (vector files)
- cloud-based saving of your designs and easy access
- easy to follow tutorials
- can be used online without an account creation unless you want to use the premium features
- a one-time fee with no monthly renewals – you can’t beat that!
- unlimited edits to your design as you choose (based on your package)
- immediate download access of your logo and ready to be used
- the more popular methods for payment including Paypal
- lifetime support on any package – the basic or the plus
- a privacy policy which does not store your personal data without consent
The Cons
Of course, like everything in life, we can be faced with a few ‘not-so-good’ reasons when it comes to choosing or decision-making. Let’s see if DesignEvo has any cons that we need to be aware of:
- I Am Still Looking!!
Pricing
Of course, it is a free software with an upgrade option. Take a look at the chart comparison below. Needless to say, the free package does not compare to the advantages to be gained from the Basic or the Plus package. It definitely fills a need for anyone’s budget. Of course, if you want to leave a lasting impression, you might want to upgrade to one of the packages.
But I find that the free account is a great stepping stone to ‘get your feet wet’ in designing your logo. It helps you to get an idea of how you want to choose to brand yourself and your business.
Support
When it comes to the question of support access, you have 3 ways to get help at your fingertips:
- Tutorials and tips – a very detailed overview of the process from start to finish, simple, easy to read and understand.
- FAQs section – a great resource to answer any question that you might have, the simple ones and of course you can email for the more complex ones.
- Suggestions for our Team section – here you are able to email using a standard contact form.
Training
The detailed tutorial section is the place to get your training per se. All you really need to do is simply play around on the platform to see how it works. I found it a ‘breeze’ to navigate.
Naturally, it can also be very addictive once you get started. SO, make sure you have nothing else planned for a while or you will find yourself ‘lost in the world of logo creation’ – easily!
The Blog
DesignEvo obviously cares about their readers/designers/ clients. On their platform, there is also a blog section where you can also access some useful resources to help you along the way.
A Bonus – The Affiliate Program
As I browsed around the platform, I noticed that DesigEvo also offers you the privilege to advertise on their behalf. I thought, wow, this is cool – you get to use their free services (and their upgraded services) as well as tell others about them and get compensation for doing it – I decided to head on over to join the program.
The features of their affiliate program:
- easy to apply – clear and simple forms processed through ShareASale
- no entrance requirements
- you are helping others when you write about your DesignEvo experience and in a way, this is like a ‘cyber-word-of-mouth’ advertising method
- they offer a 25% commission fee as well as a bonus if merited
- 90-day cookie tracking
Very impressive in my opinion.
My Final Thoughts On My DesignEvo Review 2018 And Why You Should Try It!
Well, I must say that I am loving DesignEvo as an online logo software platform. I enjoyed using it to create my logos and it was a fun experience to unleash my creativity – especially knowing that I could ‘change my mind’ any time I wanted to without worrying about the ‘cost of doing so’.
Yes, my logos look professional and for now, they work well for me and my business and I did not ‘need to break the bank’ in order to ‘look good’.
I highly recommend that you give DesignEvo a try. Even just playing around with the free account to see if it ‘brings out your creativity’ and them take it to the next level.
I hope you found my DesignEvo review a useful source of information. Much success and be sure to let me know how it turns out for you and your business.

This is great. It’s like another tool for the tool shed..but for graphics.
I need this….
Hello, Ty.
Thnx for your visit. Glad you liked it and hope you will indeed use this tool and not just put it in your toolshed! Much success.
Michelle
Oh wow, I have been looking for something like this! I love it, and the price is right in my book. Having someone else come up with logos for me is more expensive for sure. I do have a question, can this also be used to add words to pictures? I would love if it could do this as well.
Hello there Leahrae,
Thank you for visiting. Yes, so far, so good for the relationship between DesignEvo and I…lol. It does allow you to do things – your way, your time, your price! This part, I am not sure of. There are so many templates that you can play around with, I am sure you can find one to fill the need or a good substitute. And why not ask your question to SUpport, maybe they can answer your question better before making a commitment? ALl the best.
Michelle
Michelle,
This is an excellent article. I was just in the market for a logo and thinking I would probably hire someone to do it for me. I will definitely be checking out DesignEvo. It may save me quite a bit of money since I would have the power to change and rearrange things on the fly. Thank You
Hello Maryann,
Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts. I am glad that the article provided some value to you indeed! Yes, I so agree with you – the budget and the personal touch – you get to decide on both accounts. I hope you will have a good experience. Much success.

Hey Michelle! I’ve never heard of designevo. The platform sounds a lot like canva. Are they similar? I find it really interesting that you can use their affiliate program even as a non paying member as well. I’m gonna have to check them out! Thanks for the review! I’m always looking for new and fresh ideas for my blog:)
Hello Jennifer,
Thank you for visiting and leaving your thoughts. Yes, it is somewhat like Canva, but in my opinion more ‘logo’ oriented and a tad more professional. Yes, their affiliate program sounds great, doesn’t it? Yes, I think it is worth a closer look as your time permits. I would love your feedback when you get around to it. Good luck.
Michelle
Thanks for the great review Michelle. I’m going to go check it out right now. I’ve changed my logo about 2 or 3 times now, lol. I’ve never been able to make something that sticks!! Maybe Designevo will have a template I like. I hope so.
So far I’ve tried the free Canva, and it ok. Do you think the free Designevo is better?
Cheers,
Suzanne
Hello Suzanne,
Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts. Yes, I have been there too. I have used Canva and somehow, the effect is not as impressive as when I have used DesignEvo. Give it a shot, you might surprise yourself. Be sure to let me know how it goes for you.
Michelle
This looks like a nice way to help create your brand. With the different pricing options available. Do any of them include, or possibly all, the ability to use the logo you create anywhere? I am looking to use a log across merchandise as well as online. I am wondering if there are restrictions based on a plan that you choose or the graphics they supply. I am really interested in something like this if it allows for this type of feature.
Hello Christina,
Thanks for stopping by. Yes, once you create the logo you can use it as you wish. Please check the ‘small print’ when it comes to copyright, you can find that information in the FAQ section. I am glad that you found value and do let me know how it works out for you. Much success.
Michelle
Looks like an excellent choice to use for designing your brand logo! Love that it has free options, upgrade and the affiliate program! I will have to check it out. thanks for sharing!
Hello Tara,
Thnx for your visit and your thoughts. Yes, I think it is a great software and lots of benefits – free and paid. Check it out and see if it is something for you. Good luck.
Michelle
Michelle,
With the cost of someone else making a logo getting very high, over $250 in some cases, the cost of this program is very affordable. If you only want to make a couple of logos and discontinue the program, how difficult is it. I do not want to get in the business of making logos, I just need a couple.
John
Hello John,
Thanks for your visit and your kind words. Yes, it can add up in costs indeed. Great question, John. I don’t see a problem with doing what you are asking. However, the best answer should come from the source so maybe shoot an email to Designevo and hear their suggestion. Good luck.

Hi Michelle,
Thanks for the review. I have been looking for a good logo designer. It seems most of what I’ve found efore is the opportunity to spend my time for no cost to design a decent logo, only to find out that I’llbe able to use my design once I buy it. It’s not that I’m against opaying for so,ething of value, but I dislike the smarmy upsell after the free offer…this sounds more authentic, and something I may be able to use and promote to others.
Annie
Hello Annie,
Thanks for your visit. Yes, I totally understand how you feel about that. I, too, have had the same thing happen to me. I am glad I found Designevo and I enjoy creating and recreating things as it suits me. Give it a shot and do let me know how it turns out for you.
Michelle
This looks like an excellent tool, Michelle! I’ve been looking for an easy to use logo making resource and I was sold on your statement that it has an easy learning curve! Excellent. I also love the affiliate opportunity! Thank you for sharing this, Michelle.
Hello Sue,
Thanks for your visit and your thoughts. You are very welcome, Sue. I am happy to help and happier to know that you found value as well. Lemme know how it works out for you.
Michelle
What a great little program and so handy – I have just been pondering on where to find a program to design a new logo to my site, as I am unhappy about the current one I have.
Thanks for this Michelle, and the affiliate program sounds really good too! This is a win-win situation =)
Hello Orion,
Thanks for your visit and your thoughts. I am glad you found value and enjoyed the review. I hope it works out well for you, and better that the one you now have.
