The best free and paid-for infographic maker available now.
With the best infographic maker, you can easily present complicated data in a simple manner. An infographic maker can translate tons of complex info into clean visuals that make everything much easier to digest. Creating your own infographic from scratch can take a seriously long time – so here’s a hand-selected range of easy yet powerful infographic maker tools.
The list of infographic makers below includes both free and paid tools. Many are aimed at beginners, but even these are often hugely capable tools and worth checking out. If you need some inspiration, just take a look at our collection of the best infographics. And if you do fancy creating your own infographic from scratch, take a look at our guide on how to download Photoshop.
Creative Cloud Express uses a drag-and-drop editor which is super simple to use. Search through the templates to get the one you want, and then start editing. You can add your own background, change the text, add an image, introduce an icon and include your own logo (if you have one). When done, the infographic maker lets you resize for your favourite social platform with a single click, then download (we recommend saving in cloud storage). Sit back and watch your infographic go viral. Get Adobe Creative Cloud now for Adobe’s full suite of design apps. 
It features a dedicated free infographic maker with hundreds of free design elements and fonts at your fingertips. There are many more premium elements that you can buy for $1.
Though there’s a massive range of features available, including font upload and the ability to export in Powerpoint and even interactive PDF, but many of these are only available as part of a Business account – with a big jump between what you get from a Premium account and the Business plan. But there is a fairly decent Free plan, and the Premium subscription gets you everything you need to create attractive infographics with a highly professional feel. 
Once you’ve uploaded your stats, you’ll be able to tweak the layout and colour scheme to your heart’s content. Given that infographics are an art form in and of themselves, Piktochart is a great way to get to grips with the medium. There are various pricing options, including a free account that allows you to make up to five visuals, although you’ll have to pay to get rid of the Piktochart watermark.
If your team needs to collaborate and share data in a visual way, MURAL could be the infographic maker for you. Pricing starts at $12 per month. There’s a free trial.
Visme promises to help you ‘speak visually’. You can use it to build presentations, but it’s especially geared towards creating engaging infographics. This infographic maker includes over 100 fonts (for more, see our list of free fonts), millions of free images and thousands of quality icons, and there are options to include video and audio (including the ability to record a voiceover directly in the editor, which is handy). You can also animate your content to make things clearer.
What sets this tool apart from the rest on this list is that Visme allows users to whip up an infographic in a few minutes, thanks to a library of pre-made assets that can be easily dragged and dropped into place. This allows even non-designers to display their data visually. Visme also gives users the ability to create interactive and animated infographics, making their stats and figures sing like never before. Pricing starts from $15 a month, but there’s a free version that can serve to get a feel for the software.
With plenty of designs and pre-made scenes at its disposal, this app removes the barrier to entry that so often stops people from using videos to their full effect. There’s a range of plans available, the free plan enables you to make and share up to 10 video projects with the Biteable watermark. Paid plans start at $19 per month.
When you’re happy with your infographic, you can publish it to the Infogram website for all to enjoy, embed it into your own website, or share it via social media. The basic version (up to 10 projects and 13 maps types) is free, while paid versions start from $19 per month.
Mind the Graph provides thousands of icons that are useful for non-scientific purposes as well as for livening up a wordy journal paper, and you can take advantage of its built-in image editor and online updater to make changes on the fly. There’s a free version suitable for trying out the software. The paid versions start as low as $5 for the Junior version aimed at undergraduate students and occasional users.
It has Python and JavaScript-based tools to create the required maps. The Python library generates beautiful and compact SVG maps; while the JS library helps you to create interactive maps that run across all major browsers.
The free option includes 60 images and 10 fonts, or for $4 a month you get a much wider pool of resources, plus boosted security options and – if you need it – design help.
This infographic maker includes a range of templates, but what sets it apart is its large library of icons (you can also upload your own). The more expensive options include an expanded resource library, improved download options and the ability to upload more of your own content. It’s free to try for one week. It is rather pricey, starting at $39 per month.
