FontBase Reviews & Product Details

As a multi-PC user, I like easy access to all of my fonts regardless of whether I am at work, home, or wherever. FontBase does a great job of not only organizing and managing my font libraries but also allows me to sync those fonts to any device with the software installed. I also lhow way you can easily integrate with Google Fonts, and activate and deactivate fonts easily. I am overall very impressed with with softwareware. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I will say it was not intuitive when I started using it. I was initially going to give it 8 stars when I first was using it, but over time I have realized that it works amazingly and my assumptions were the issues with the UI, not the design. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

FontBase is a boon to a designer. You can search any font in it. It has the most extensive library. You can also change the style of the font if you require. It is fast and has a beautiful UI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been using Fontbase for the past few weeks and haven't found any issue yet. I will update later if I find any. It's free and quite easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As someone that does a fair amount of brand management in the development world, as well as UI/UX design, it is nice to be able to organize fonts for projects into easy-to-find and use (and share) groupings. I really appreciate the apps and the ability to connect to some of the more popular foundries. I am an Adobe user and its integration with Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign is pretty great. I also like how the recently used font list gives me a good idea of the ones I use a lot, and maybe ones I never use and could probably get rid of.

In addition, the integration with Google fonts is fantastic and really helps those that use Google Fonts regularly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not a whole lot. The search is pretty powerful and there are a lot of great tools. Getting set up at first took some time, mostly because I have thousands of fonts available, but as you begin using it, I just started slowly making collections based on projects, and over time it organically organizes a lot of your fonts.

I use before most of the font library softwares but fontbase is really different. First of all it has a nice and touchy design and very good view for seeing and selecting fonts. You can add folders, and organize them. You can create watch folders and you can forget the software at background work. I think this should be what makes a good software good. Another beauty is that you can access the google font family directly and make font selections easily without using any internet browser. I'm seriously amazed that such a good program also offers its best features for free. It also has a paid membership and you can use more of its features by paying a small amount per month. I've been using the free version for 1 year and still very happy. I recommend it to everyone. Especially if you don't want to get lost in fonts, it's an application that will save you a lot.

It wouldn't be right to say I don't like it, but maybe the only issue that will make it even better is that it is not integrated into a cloud system. perhaps you can create a live font archive by uploading the watched folder to a cloud system and introducing it to fontbase on each device.

I like that you can sort the fonts into categories. So when I'm looking for a particular type of font, I can just look through those to find the right fit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If I forget to open the FontBase application on my computer, my fonts won't load when I open my files. I guess that's how it's supposed to work, but it bugs me every time! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

FontBase is quicker than most fonat management programs, both on starting up and in running searches, as well as identifying newly added fonts. The plugins for Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop are also speedy in identifying and activating missing fonts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really don't like the idea of making a font management program a subscription product, for any price-point. I also have issues when it comes to dealing with fonts in multiple folders in multiple locations as you cannot easily identify which assets are in which folders because of how the app automatically names the libraries and won't let you change them.

I like that it's a lightweight desktop application and opens in seconds. Sometimes I open a logo file in illustrator and realize I'm missing a font. With Fontbase on my taskbar it activates about 2000 custom fonts on my system without having to install them. I actually use this product frequently and it's a lifesaver.

I love most of the features I just wish it had a more open folder system. I'd like to associate specific fonts with a particular client or purpose, perhaps a note section tied to each font. Other than that, this app works perfectly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It helps to find useful sources and preview your application, complementing the designer's work well. You can choose before downloading, very useful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is not really comfortable to view the fonts on my computer, Something that I often use in my day-to-day tasks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

By far the best from FontBase is its quick system performance. By far the only Font Manager so robust and so light at the same time with your hardware. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Almost nothing, maybe that there is a paid upgrade. But honestly, it is so cheap that it doesn't bother me now that i think about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
