"Perfect platform for your photographs!"
What do you like best about Flickr?

It's the perfect platform for displaying digital photography work. It's simple to use, easy to manage and provides a great library of editing tools. The community is helpful and inspiring and I've made some great friends through it. You can store, share and organize your photographs and your images with no hassle. Overall it's such a perfect product for me! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flickr?

The only thing I don't like about the site as a free user is that it can be slow to upload pictures at sometimes. But amazingly i have no other issues except the slow upload picture. Other than that it's an astonishing organizing photograph application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic site for sharing and storing high quality photographs!"
What do you like best about Flickr?

Flickr offers impressive storage options with its free account providing 1TB, which is more than sufficient for most users. The platform prioritizes data privacy, enabling you to set access levels for your photos. Flickr boasts a vibrant online community of creatives, where you can connect with talented photographers and follow their latest work. The platform integrates seamlessly with other websites, including blogging sites, offering a hassle-free way to incorporate your photos into your online presence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flickr?

The site's interface may present some difficulties, but once you become familiar with it, navigating becomes a breeze. Although the platform is free, you may encounter ads displayed as a source of income for Flickr. It is important to note that the site is solely meant for photos, as videos are not supported for upload. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Comprehensive & Easy-to-Use Photo Sharing Platform"
What do you like best about Flickr?

Flickr provides a generous amount of storage space for free users, allowing me to upload and share my photos without worrying about running out of space. The platform's user interface is clean and intuitive, making it easy for me to navigate and organize my photos.

Flickr's photo community is also a great feature, as I can connect with other photographers and discover new photos and inspiration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flickr?

As a free user, I have limited access to certain features, such as the ability to view my photo stats or access Flickr's mobile app without ads. Other than that, the platform's search function can be hit or miss at times, and it can be difficult to find specific photos or users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Platform for Sharing Your Photography"
What do you like best about Flickr?

What I like the best about Flickr is that in a way, it's essentially a photographer's version of social media in where you can follow each other to build your network as well as post photos that you've taken and are proud of to share. You can even set up a shop in where you can sell prints of your photos too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flickr?

The thing that I least like about Flickr would probably be it's UX design. Compared to sites such as Pexels or Unsplash, the layout of the site feels as though it's a bit dated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Solid platform for saving and sharing photography"
What do you like best about Flickr?

Flickr is easy to use. It's easy to organize my photos into albums, tag them, and organize them how I want. It's priced relatively well (although it keeps increasing). I have been a Pro user for many years and will continue to use Flickr to host my photography. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flickr?

I always have trouble sharing/downloading my photos on mobile. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. After all of these years, I would expect the Flickr app to have worked out all the kinks and work everytime I want to access my own photos. It's always hit or miss and can be frustrating.

"A thing before instagram"
What do you like best about Flickr?

Flickr apparently happened to be the first Instagram the world had seen. Integrated with the old Nokia 5233 phones. Flickr was one of the well-renowned social media platforms in the early '20s Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flickr?

The audience on Flickr is very authentic and most of the users migrated to using Instagram since it was launched in 2010 and Flickr took a hit for its monotonous service compared to instagram. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Super useful to download good quality images!"
What do you like best about Flickr?

I liked that it made my job easier when looking for a specific photo and what's best is that they're good quality pictures and lets you choose the size and form of the photo according to what I needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flickr?

What I disliked the most is that not all users set their photos to be downloaded and sometimes I really liked a photo and when I wanted to download it, I saw the owned had disabled the download of their photos so I had to look for another one that I didn't like as much.

"Flickr review"
What do you like best about Flickr?

Flickr is a fun way to store, organize and share your photos and videos in one place. Easy way to manage all your different pictures into albums and divide them into groups. Also, if you have many different faces, you can tag people so you know who is who. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Flickr?

Uploading photos for some reason takes multiple steps, which is very annoying, and uploading over 50+ pictures can take a long time. Also, if you upload the wrong picture it is very hard to delete that photo. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
