LogoNerds

For a low-cost logo design service, LogoNerds is good enough. I did get a professional-looking logo for a very reasonable price, but the outdated website interface and slow, impersonal interactions made the design process less than pleasant. Read on to discover my favorite alternatives, including how you can hire a professional logo designer for as little as $5 on Fiverr.

Namecheap Logo Maker

A long-time player in domain registration and web hosting, Namecheap has recently moved into branding with the release of its Free Logo Maker. Artificial intelligence (AI) technology makes this logo maker very beginner-friendly and fairly robust. Just be careful about commercial rights! If that concerns you, I recommend hiring a professional logo designer for as little as $5...

Logaster

Logaster advertises “AI-generated logo design,” which should mean your logo is created by artificial intelligence according to your preferences. However, the platform falls short in terms of creative and personalized logos. It does have a uniquely generous unlimited editing policy, but I’d still suggest using a different solution. If you want to save even more money but you...

Strikingly

Sync

Sync has all the basic features you’ll need to store, sync and share files, plus reasonable storage capabilities, and great privacy protection. There’s no live chat support and the free plan is definitely bare-bones, but it’s a great option if you want an affordable cloud storage solution or aren’t interested in extra features.

Box

Box is a cloud storage solution with dozens of amazing features, quick backups, tight security, and much more. It has a few downsides, like its slightly restrictive free plan, but it’s a solid solution for individuals and businesses of all sizes.

Vistaprint Logo Maker

Vistaprint’s logo maker is advertised as free, BUT it’s only free if you order printed merchandise through Vistaprint. If you were planning to order printing from Vistaprint anyway, then this logo maker is not a bad choice. Otherwise, I’d look for a better logo design option like hiring a professional logo designer for as little as $5 on Fiverr.

Shopify Logo Maker

Made by one of the biggest names in e-commerce, the Shopify logo maker, officially named Hatchful, is completely free to use. The logo templates and downloadable files are decent for a free tool, but the customization options are very limited. In terms of added value for your business, you’d be better off paying a little more to get more powerful customization capabilities and...

Jimdo Logo Creator

Coming from a company known for website building, Jimdo Logo Creator is intuitive and easy to use. You won’t have many logo templates to choose from, but the customizations are creative, and you can instantly download your logo for free. Just be sure to double-check on commercial usage rights!

Mercado Shops

Mercado Shops offers a simplified e-commerce website builder that helps you get your business off the ground or expand into Latin America. This platform offers a good range of features, like integrated shipping and handling, and cross-channel selling. However, Mercado Shops is limited to Latin America, and integrated shipping is only available in select countries.

Tailored Logo

A so-called “marketing and design consultancy,” Tailored Logo strives to be your one-stop shop for small and midsize business (SMB) branding. The company’s prices for logo creation are reasonable enough, but its design portfolio is pretty hit-or-miss. For more consistent quality at the same price, I’d hire a logo designer elsewhere (or even design my logo myself).

Adobe Express

Adobe Express is made by the same team that’s behind Illustrator and Photoshop. Unlike Adobe’s professional software, however, this platform is very beginner-friendly. Unfortunately, what you gain in ease of use, you lose in customization options and commercial rights.

GoDaddy Website Builder

GoDaddy offers ease of use, personalized guidance, and responsive customer support. However, a poorly designed user interface (UI) and tons of hidden costs keep GoDaddy from being great. Especially when other builders – such as Squarespace – offer better templates and more advanced apps and plugins.

OpenDrive

OpenDrive provides cloud storage and backup solutions that can be used for personal or business needs. There's also a free - but limited - plan. Backups can be slow and it definitely lacks a few more modern features, but pricing is incredibly reasonable and customer support is reliable and fast.

ElephantDrive

ElephantDrive is a personal and business cloud backup service with solid features like non-user link sharing and easy data restoration. However, its downsides can be difficult to overlook, especially when it comes to its lagging apps and vague privacy policy.
