Have you tried an online design creator before?
Contents
Vexls is a beta product supporting startups and teams with their design needs. For a lot of early stage founders and junior digital marketers, online design creators can be a life saver. You can create logos, designs and posts for popular social media news feeds like Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn. However, there is a huge problem with online design creators in this region and that it does not support RTL, or Arabic language. Furthermore, the Arabic font library is very week. Vexls is available in Arabic!
Solve this with Vexls!
Here comes the online design creator for the Middle East. A free tool to use to create your social media posts and business cards, with Arabic and English support. They have dozens of designs ready and can even print it for you!
Vexls Features Not In Other Online Design Creators
1. Insert image from URL
One of the most annoying things for do-it-yourself online design software is adding your own images. Usually, you have to upload the picture and that most probably comes after you’ve saved your logo dimension for the 100th time. Vexls allows you to insert an image from any URL. You don’t even have to use Pexels or Pixabay integration (even though Vexls has it). Just simply insert the URL of the image and you will find it in the design.
2. Arabic language support
Vexls supports Arabic typing on the design. It’s got a bit of glitches when you want to edit your sentence. We didn’t have any major problems and were able to navigate our way round it.
3. Has gridlines view for a pixel perfect
Sometimes you want to have the perfect design, and a huge part of having a great design is the dimensions you are using, the ratio, the alignment, the spacing and the sizing. Having gridlines view in Vexls helps with alignment of your elements so it looks easy on the eye for your audience.
4. It has a colour picker
When selecting a colour, Vexls has multiple options: choose from the document suggested colour palette, enter a HEX colour or, use the colour picker. The colour picker makes it so much faster to use the same colour palette in the design without saving all the different HEX numbers. It speeds up the colour consistency of your design.
5. Templates organized and frequently updated
You can find templates neatly organized into folders on their platform. You can find templates related to food, delivery, wallet options and payment. You can check the category for delivery here for example. This allows you to have different posts for one coherent and consistent campaign too!
What’s the final output on our review?
We used Vexls ourselves to try and test it. We created this design:
We had some issues when it came to moving objects around. Then we used the “Layer” in the menu which makes it a lot easier once you get used to it. Vexls also makes custom-made designs if you want something more special. One of the best cases to use Vexls as well is for printing. You can see print bleed, add a barcode and do more with it as well.
Vexls is still in the beta version and was just recently launched. A lot of products are not looking at localization as one of the main elements for their strategy. We enjoyed using Vexls and will use it again for fast announcements. The Founder was actually a designer himself, so he made sure the features are relevant and useful to experienced designers as well.
