La verdadera diferencia
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Adobe XD stands out with Prototyping and wireframing and Repeat grid. Canva counters with Drag-and-drop editor and Brand kit.
Adobe XD's Achilles heel: adobe effectively abandoned it — no major updates since 2023, figma won the market. Canva's: not a real design tool — no vector editing, no prototyping, and exports aren't production-grade for print. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Conclusión
If you value prototyping and wireframing and equipos que ya pagan, go with Adobe XD. If no-diseñadores que necesitan gráficos matters more, Canva is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
