We’ve all read an article or study that has so much information that you’re easily lost by the second paragraph because you aren’t able to absorb so much information in such little time. When you need to get a large amount of information and numbers into a small amount of space, it’s best to use an infographic to help people understand the information. If you need to create an infographic of this type, you can use one of these tools to easily create your own professional one without having to be an expert in graphic design.
Using graphs, tables, and diagrams to show how things work helps people understand and makes the text easier to read, making it much more likely that your paper, study, or article will be read in its entirety. For any type of information that has too much data for the reader, you can create any graph easily without driving yourself crazy using an Excel spreadsheet.
Infogr.am
It is a completely free-web app that allows you to create both graphs and maps using template designs to include in your project as a complete infographic. This app has a large variety of tables and diagrams: bar and column graphs, pie graphs, wordclouds, and hierarchy pyramids, among other features. It allows you to edit all of them on a spreadsheet similar to Excel where you can insert images, video, text, and maps.
On the other hand, if what you are really looking for is to create an awesomely gorgeous infographic, infogr.am has 10 template designs—four of which are for Pro users—that allow you to change the data and design so you can start building your own infographic. Once your infographic is ready, you can publish it on the website itself, share it on social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and Google+, or upload it to other sites as you choose.
