What is a pie chart?
A pie chart, also known as a circle chart, is a circular diagram that resembles a pie. Each of the ‘slices’ represents a category of data that makes up the whole. Together, the pie represents 100 percent. The size of each ‘slice’ is relative to its portion of the whole. Pie charts can become overly complicated if there are too many categories of data being presented. A good pie chart should give information at a glance.
A donut chart or doughnut chart is a kind of pie chart that represents data in a ring rather than a circle. They serve the same function, so you can use them interchangeably depending on what look you prefer.
Add and edit your data with just a few clicks
Skip the complicated calculations – with Canva’s pie chart generator, you can turn raw data into a finished pie chart in minutes. A simple click will open the data section where you can add values. You can even copy and paste the data from a spreadsheet. Click the text to edit the labels.
Bring your whole team on board
Canva is made with teams in mind. Invite your team and control who can change what by giving View and Edit access. No more going back and forth over email to make minor adjustments – with Canva, your whole team can work on the same graph. Your graph is stored in the cloud, so you can access it wherever you have internet connection.
Adjust the colors to get the look you want
Make your pie chart a work of art. In Canva, you can easily add a designer-made color palette to your pie chart. It’s a great way to make your chart stand out – making your information eye-catching and easy to understand at a glance, too. You can also scale or resize your pie chart to the size you need.
Embed in presentations, reports and more
Canva’s pie charts can be embedded in all kinds of graphics and documents. We’ve got tens of thousands of templates to choose from, so you can keep a consistent, stylish look. Simply choose what you’d like to make – whether it’s a presentation, an infographic or something else – then select a template. Add your pie chart from the side panel in Canva’s editor.
When you’re all done, you can download your pie chart as a JPEG, PNG or PDF file, share it on your social media, or email it directly to someone.
