Yes — if your main goal is reusable templates + brand consistency across both marketing and content teams, I’d recommend looking at these platforms:
Best all-around pick: Canva for Teams
Why it fits:
- Easy for non-designers to use
- Strong brand kit features: logos, fonts, colors, templates
- Great for creating reusable assets like social posts, presentations, one-pagers, ads, and docs
- Collaboration and approvals are straightforward for mixed teams
- Good balance of ease-of-use and team management
Best for: teams that want a simple, fast, self-serve template system.
Best for more advanced template governance: Frontify
Why it fits:
- Strong brand management and centralized brand guidelines
- Better for larger organizations that need control over how templates are used
- Good for maintaining consistency across multiple teams or departments
- More robust than Canva for brand governance and asset management
Best for: teams that need tighter brand control and a more formal brand portal.
Best if your team already uses Adobe tools: Adobe Express + Adobe Creative Cloud Libraries
Why it fits:
- Strong integration with Adobe ecosystem
- Useful for template reuse and brand assets
- Good if designers work in Illustrator/InDesign/Photoshop while marketers/content teams use lighter tools
Best for: design-heavy teams or organizations already standardized on Adobe.
Other solid options
- Brandfolder — strong digital asset management and brand governance
- Figma — great for collaborative template design, but less turnkey for marketing ops
- Marq (formerly Lucidpress) — specifically strong for branded templates and distributed teams
My recommendation by team type
- Small to mid-sized team: Canva for Teams
- Larger team with strict brand governance: Frontify
- Design-led team: Adobe Express / Creative Cloud Libraries
- Template-heavy marketing operations: Marq
If you want, I can also give you a side-by-side comparison of Canva vs Frontify vs Marq based on:
- ease of use
- template control
- approval workflows
- integrations
- pricing range
