I like how Penji has talented artists and delivers on timelines better than other providers. They manage multiple projects for us concurrently, which is incredibly helpful. I appreciate that they have really understood our brand and manage the various clients we work with seamlessly. It's also great that multiple team members can use the service at the same time.
I love working with our art designer, Frainy, who organizes all our projects and matches us with the best designer for our vision. She is the best part about the software!!

Lindsey, we're so happy to have you with us and to read your having such a good experience with Frainy and the rest of the team. Thank you for taking the time to share this review. :)
Penji has been an incredible support across all of my brands. I run multiple businesses and have launched many different brands, each with its own style, audience and requirements. Their team consistently understands the brief and delivers high quality work that feels right for each individual business.
Having one reliable design team that can work across so many different brands has saved me a huge amount of time and made the entire process much easier. They are responsive, professional and always willing to make changes until the design is exactly where it needs to be.
Penji has become an important part of how I launch, grow and manage my brands. I would highly recommend them to any business owner who needs consistent, professional design support across multiple projects.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review, Sam! We're thrilled to hear that Penji has been a trusted creative partner across all your brands. It means a lot to know our team has helped make managing multiple businesses easier while delivering designs that fit each brand's unique style. We truly appreciate your support and look forward to being part of your continued growth!
I've tried more than a few of these creative services and so far, Penji is the best of the best! Their system to submit project requests is one of the simplest and most streamlined. Their designers are obviously familiar with the industries I'm working in AND they incorporate their own creativity from the first go-around, so no copy and paste Canva templates. Their project management team is communicative and diligent. Turnaround time on projects beats most competitors out there. And best of all, the designs have performed in my client's ad accounts. If you're a media buyer like me, or a business looking to beef up your creative output for ads or social media, my advice is to stop shopping around and give Penji a try. They've been a valuable addition to my company.

Penji turned our small marketing team into a creative powerhouse
We decided to give Penji a try after not being happy with our previous design firm, and it has honestly been such a great decision for our team.
From our first meeting, Pepe, our design manager, made the experience feel easy and exciting. He walked us through the dashboard, explained how everything worked, and brought such a confident, fun, and creative energy right away. That gave us a lot of trust from the beginning.
Over the past six months, we have seen a real transformation in our creative materials. Penji has helped us improve so many parts of our marketing, including sales collateral, one-pagers, two-page assets, social creative, LinkedIn ads, email graphics, webinar graphics, thumbnails, presentation support, report designs, video repurposing assets, and other day-to-day design needs that come up for a growing startup marketing team.
The dashboard is easy to use, making it simple to submit requests, provide feedback, and keep projects moving. I also really appreciate that we can work with designers who have specific strengths. Some are great at repurposing video, some are great with thumbnails, some are great with polished sales collateral and longer-form assets. Being able to choose and build a design team that fits our needs has made a huge difference.
Penji has helped turn our small startup marketing team into a creative powerhouse. The team is responsive, talented, easy to work with, and genuinely helps us bring better ideas to life. I would absolutely recommend Penji to any team that needs consistent, high-quality creative support without slowing everything down.

Thank you so much for your amazing review, Amanda! We're thrilled to hear Penji has been such a great fit for your team. It means a lot that Pepe helped make the onboarding experience smooth and exciting, and we'll be sure to share your kind words with him. We're grateful to be part of your startup's growth and look forward to creating even more great work together!
We've had an excellent experience with Penji. The amount of value we've received compared to the time and cost involved has been outstanding. Our team is able to produce a much higher volume of quality marketing materials than we could on our own, and the process is simple and efficient.
A big part of that has been our Art Director, Luis. He's been incredibly helpful, communicative, and easy to work with. He understands our brand, provides thoughtful guidance when needed, and consistently helps keep projects moving. Having someone who knows our style and can translate our ideas into polished designs has made a huge difference.
Overall, Penji has become an important part of our marketing workflow, and we would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable, high-value design partner.

He'll be happy to know his support and dedication have made such a positive impact. We truly appreciate your trust and recommendation!
We've been using Penji for several years, and they have become an important extension of our team. As a church, we need high-quality graphic design that is creative, reliable, and affordable, and Penji has consistently delivered.
One of the things I appreciate most is how much their customer service has improved over the years. Projects are assigned quickly, communication is responsive, and because many of their designers work in different time zones, I can often submit a request one day and have quality work waiting for me the next morning.
Like any creative service, not every designer is the perfect fit. My advice is simple: if a designer isn't understanding your vision or isn't listening carefully, don't hesitate to request someone else. Penji makes that process easy, and once you find the right designer, they truly become part of your team.
Our most recent experience has been exceptional. We developed a large project for our parish called CANTICO: A Franciscan Prayer Circuit in our church. Our designer, Lorenz, was outstanding. His patience, good taste, attention to detail, and willingness to collaborate made him feel less like a contractor and more like a creative partner invested in the success of the project.
The leadership at Penji has also been consistently responsive and genuinely interested in making sure clients have a positive experience. Every year I've worked with them, they've found ways to improve their service.
I recommend Penji without hesitation. If you're looking for an affordable, professional graphic design service that values long-term relationships and great customer support, they're an excellent choice.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for trusting Penji over the years, Rick! It means a lot to hear we've become an extension of your team. We're especially happy to hear Lorenz made such a positive impact on the CANTICO project. I'll be sure to share your kind words with him. We truly appreciate your support, your feedback, and the opportunity to be part of your mission. Looking forward to many more years of creating great work together!
I've worked with a number of creative services and design teams over the years, and Penji has easily been the best experience we've had so far.
Their team is incredibly responsive, turnaround times are fast, and the quality of work has consistently exceeded our expectations. One of the things I appreciate most is their willingness to iterate and collaborate until the final product is right. The designers genuinely seem invested in producing quality work rather than simply checking a box and moving on to the next request.
That said, there are a few areas where I think the experience could be improved. The queue and project funnel system can feel a bit awkward at times, especially when managing multiple priorities. It's not a dealbreaker, but there is definitely a learning curve, and some projects require more revisions than I'd like before landing exactly where we need them.
I also wish additional active queues were more affordable. As our workload has grown, we've found ourselves wanting more concurrent capacity, but the jump in cost can be difficult to justify for smaller teams.
My biggest criticism is around Boosts. While I understand the intent behind them, I don't love that they consume active queue slots and can still require multiple rounds of revisions. When you're paying extra to accelerate a project, it would be nice to see a little more flexibility in how those requests are handled.
Even with those criticisms, the positives far outweigh the negatives. The quality, consistency, communication, and speed of the Penji team have made them an invaluable partner for our business. Out of all the design services and creative teams we've worked with, Penji has delivered the best overall experience, and they've become a trusted extension of our organization.
If you're looking for a reliable design partner and understand how to work within their system, I would absolutely recommend giving Penji a try.

Thank you so much for taking the time to share such detailed feedback, Anthony! We really appreciate it.
We’re glad to hear Penji has been your best experience so far and that the team’s responsiveness, quality, and collaboration have made a strong impact on you. That means a lot to us.
We also hear your concerns around the queue system, pricing for additional capacity, and Boosts. Feedback like this is really valuable and helps us understand where the experience can feel less smooth, especially for growing teams. We’re always working on improving workflows and making the system more flexible and intuitive.
We truly appreciate your support and trust in Penji, and we’re grateful to be your design partner.
Penji is an incredible service. The quality and volume of graphic design they make is unbelievable! You will not regret working with this amazing team.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Dr. Laura! We’re really glad you’re happy with the quality and output. The team truly appreciates your support, and we look forward to continuing to create great work with you!
Penji has been a great partner for us and our company. The speed and efficiency we have with Penji is exponentially more than what we are used to with designers on staff. Our art director Gisselle, is great at refining our ideas into effective designs and making sure the right designers get assigned to our project. 10/10 would recommend!

Thank you so much for the amazing feedback, Stone! We’re so glad Penji has been such a great partner for your team. Gisselle will definitely appreciate the shoutout!

Our brand has had a great experience with Penji, they have quality design professionals in a variety of fields. It has been a great outsourcing addition to our team, so we can focus in the strategic future of our company.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Jessica! We’re really happy to hear Penji has been a valuable extension of your team. It’s great knowing our designers can help support your brand while you focus on the bigger picture and future growth. We truly appreciate your support!
Penji has been absolutely amazing to work with. The speed of delivery is incredible, and I love that they don’t just send one design and call it a day — they give me multiple options so I can choose the direction that fits best.
The designers I’ve worked with have been spot on in understanding what I’m looking for, and one of my favorite parts is that I’ve found a consistent team of designers I can work with repeatedly. That makes such a difference because they get to know your style, your brand, and your weird little “can we make it pop, but not too pop?” requests.
Adrián, my Art Director, has been exceptional. We’ve worked together on many projects, and he’s been fantastic at keeping everything organized, moving, and on track. He makes the whole process feel easy.
What really sets Penji apart is that they genuinely want to be part of their customers’ lives, not just another vendor checking off tasks. They even made a wonderful video of the team celebrating the birth of my second child, which was such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture.
Penji is fast, creative, organized, thoughtful, and full of talented people. I couldn’t recommend them more highly. They’re not just a design company — they feel like an extension of our team.

Thank you so much for this thoughtful review, Jason! We’re really glad to hear from the team! Adrián has made such a strong impact and helped keep things smooth and on track. It means a lot that you feel supported not just creatively, but personally too. We truly enjoy being part of your team and look forward to many more projects together!
I have very specific requirements and after a few months I was concerned that the way I wanted to work was not going to fit into Penji's business model: I wanted to make ongoing changes and upload revised files and have the designer use my uploaded files rather than trying to replicate what I did. After some back and forth, we have a good flow and the designers work within my parameters.
I have many clients with vastly different needs. The Brands help keep things organized. Everyone is professional and customer-service oriented. If something doesn't land right, they go above and beyond to fix/rework it. And seem to have endless patience.

Thank you so much for sharing this, Angela! We really appreciate you sticking through the early back-and-forth to find a workflow that fits your style. It’s great to hear the team was able to adapt and collaborate the way you needed. We’re glad the Brands feature is helping keep things organized, too. Always here to support you and your clients. Thanks again for the kind words!
Penji has truly become an extension of our team and a critical part of how we execute on marketing. As the CMO, I rely on them daily to produce high-quality, on-brand creative across a wide range of needs. Their turnaround times are fast, their communication is seamless, and they consistently deliver designs that meet our standards without requiring constant back-and-forth. It’s rare to find a partner that combines reliability, efficiency, and quality at this level. I highly recommend Penji to any team looking to scale their design output without sacrificing consistency or professionalism.

I believe Penji values its customers. I use Penji for graphic designs, and they are my favorite design company. Collaborating with top designers is usually a rewarding experience. A shout-out to Alejandro and Pablo for their support and professionalism.

We love using Penji. We are a small business, it is difficult to have a full time designer on staff. Being able to have access to controllable design and being able to rely on relationship based designers is amazing. It has pushed our company to be able to take on projects we would not have the resources otherwise.

Thank you so much for the kind words, Rhyle! We love supporting growing businesses like yours, and it’s awesome to hear that our team has helped you take on bigger projects. We truly appreciate your trust and look forward to continuing to work together!
We're a small nonprofit newsroom, so we don't have a full-time designer on staff. Penji has been a useful solution for keeping up with the volume of design work we need — social assets, event materials, presentation decks, that kind of thing. The on-demand model is the real selling point. When we need something, we can request it without scoping a whole freelance project.
That said, revisions can be a bit of a loop. Sometimes the first pass misses the brief and it takes a couple rounds to land where we need it. And that gets a little bit frustrating sometimes. Not a dealbreaker, but worth knowing if you have very specific creative direction. Overall it's been a solid tool for a lean team that needs design support without hiring for it.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful feedback, Jake! We’re really glad Penji has been a helpful solution for your team and that the on-demand model fits your workflow. We hear you on the revision loops—totally understand how that can be frustrating at times. We’ll keep working on getting closer to the brief from the start. Appreciate you sharing your experience!
