Standardized our Java estate and have reduced licensing costs while maintaining strong support
Azul Zulu's ability to allow us to standardize our Java estate on a single and well-supported platform stands out as one of its best features. This standardization simplifies our compliance audits and ensures all our applications receive timely security updates.Azul Zulu positively impacts our organization by providing a platform that allows us to standardize Java on a well-supported platform. Without the high cost associated with other proprietary vendors, Azul Zulu provides an excellent platform for running our applications.

Centralized visual workflows have boosted automation and brand control but still need better dev tooling
While Canva Enterprise is a powerhouse, there are specific areas where it could be improved. Currently, Canva provides an Open API specification, but it does not maintain official first-party client libraries for languages like Java or Python. Developers have to use tools like Open API generator to create their own clients. This adds overhead in managing dependencies and ensuring the generated code handles Canva's specific authentication. Canva could release a first-party Java SDK with better support for Maven and Gradle, including built-in retry logic. Another area for improvement is versioning. For developers, versioning usually means a clear history of changes. However, Canva has basic version history that is linear and lacks the branching and merging logic needed for complex projects. Design as Code features could be implemented where templates could be exported as JSON and modified in an integrated development environment. This would allow developers to manage design templates in the same continuous integration and continuous deployment pipeline as their application code. Additionally, Canva currently provides notifications when a design is exported. However, developers need more granular triggers such as comment added, approval rejected, or brand kit element updated. Canva could expand the webhook suite to cover every administrative and creative action, which would allow much tighter integrations with Jira, Slack, or custom internal dashboards.
