La verdadera diferencia
Canva has a free plan; Affinity Designer doesn't. Budget-conscious? That's your answer.
Affinity Designer stands out with Vector and raster in one app and One-time purchase (no subscription). Canva counters with Drag-and-drop editor and Brand kit.
Affinity Designer's Achilles heel: no plugin ecosystem — what ships is what you get, and the community is small compared to illustrator. 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 vector and raster in one app and diseñadores que se niegan, go with Affinity Designer. If no-diseñadores que necesitan gráficos matters more, Canva is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
