Our story
Why we compare logo makers
Compare Logo Makers started with a simple frustration. We needed a logo for a side project, opened five “best logo maker” lists and found five different winners, most of them ranked by commission rather than results. None of them showed the logos, the files or the real price at checkout.
So we did the work ourselves. We designed the same four logos in every major logo maker, wrote down every step, paid for the downloads and compared what we got. That spreadsheet became this site.
What we do
We review online logo makers, from AI generators such as Design.com and Looka to template libraries like BrandCrowd and all-round design suites like Canva. Each one is scored on the same five criteria and placed side by side with every alternative, so you can see in seconds where a tool wins and where it falls short.
Who it is for
Founders, freelancers, small business owners, nonprofits and anyone who needs a professional logo without hiring a designer, or who wants to know when hiring a designer is the better choice.
How we are funded
Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you buy through them we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. That money pays for subscriptions and testing time. It never decides a ranking: positions come only from our test scores, and we review tools we earn nothing from. Read our affiliate disclosure and editorial policy for the details.

What we stand for
Four rules behind every review
-
01
Hands-on, every time
We sign up, design real logos for the same sample businesses and pay for exports where needed. No review is written from a feature list.
-
02
Rankings are never sold
Some links earn us a commission, but positions come only from test scores. We rank tools we earn nothing from, too.
-
03
Evidence on the page
Every score is shown next to the reasoning behind it, so you can disagree with us using the same facts.
-
04
Kept up to date
Logo makers change prices and features often. We re-check every review and show the date of the last update.
- Ease of useHow fast a first-time user gets from sign-up to a logo they would actually use, with no design skills.
- Design qualityOriginality, typography and balance of the suggestions across four very different sample businesses.
- CustomizationControl over fonts, colours, icons, spacing and layout, and whether edits keep the design intact.
- Brand kit & filesFile types (PNG, SVG, EPS, PDF), transparent and colour versions, plus extras like cards and social kits.
- Value for moneyWhat you get for the money, one-time versus subscription, and what happens to your files if you cancel.
