Breakdown of overall rating

Data collection and review process

Market Shepherd reviewed five of the most popular logo makers

based on online search volume. Some of these companies are MS partners, but this does not influence the review process.

We collect information from the logo makers

and verify it through hands-on testing and company FAQs.

Then, we rate the logo makers

on a scale of 1 to 5 on the following criteria: design quality, ease of use/experience, design variety, design flexibility, features and tools, cost and value, customer support, export options, and integration capabilities. Each category constitutes a portion of the logo maker’s overall score. These scores generate ratings from 1 star (poor) to 5 stars (excellent). We then use the weighted categories to calculate a score for each logo maker. We divide that score by 5 and multiply it by 10 for our final score.

The review team

MS selects partners based on the findings of our independent reviewers. MS does not publish reviews or assessments at the direction of any company and our partners cannot pay us for a favorable review or rating. If you have any questions about a company mentioned on our site, including our partners, feel free to contact us.
