A purpose-built Canva seating chart alternative

Canva is a great design tool, but a seating chart there is manual — every table and name is a shape you place yourself. A seating-aware tool does the layout logic for you.

Canva

General design editor; seating charts are made by hand from shapes.

Worth staying with if that is the shape of what you need.
