brandcrowd review

Launching an ecommerce store comes with a long list of to-dos.

And let’s be honest — designing a logo from scratch isn’t at the top of everyone’s list. That’s exactly why tools like BrandCrowd are so popular.

It promises fast, professional-looking logos, a drag-and-drop editor, and a massive template library.

But how good is it really? Especially if you’re building an ecommerce brand that needs to stand out in a crowded space?

After testing it out for multiple store concepts, here’s what I found — the good, the bad, and whether it’s actually worth your money.

I’ve used quite a few cloud-based design tools in the past, from Adobe XD to Sketch, but Figma is definitely one of my favorites.
