ImageKit Reviews & Product Details

We've been using ImageKit mainly to host and serve images to clients on our native and web applications. Getting set up was farily quick, having our backend upload images and served over the ImageKit CDN was pain free - for a small team this was crucial as compared to integrating with object storage offered by major cloud providers. Invalidating the cache for images after they've been mutated is also a very intuitive experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I honestly have no complaints yet, we've been using the platform for a couple of months now on a relatively small amount of data and a subset of all the available features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AI enhancement of pictures, options to adapt your photos by adding URL parameters, possibility of photo creation with a prompt, CDN caching, easy to use, to learn and to implement. The support is helpful. The tool can manage bulk operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Still some work to be done for their Picker (filtering, alert messages could be shown in outside Apps) if they want to be used by Tech Consultants for External Platforms integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate how easy and straightforward ImageKit is to use. It’s intuitive, and the speed of optimization is impressive. It’s been a huge help in managing images for my projects without any hassle. The results are always high-quality, which is exactly what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There’s not much to dislike. It’s been a smooth experience overall, though I wouldn’t mind seeing a few more advanced (image edit) features in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Image CDN capabilities with image optimization on the fly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pricing for lower-end workloads could be more competitive, especially for smaller use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"What stands out to me about ImageKit is its seamless integration, lightning-fast performance, and ability to simplify complex image optimization tasks, even at scale. With a library of around 2 million images and handling approximately 93.3 million requests per month, ImageKit ensures high-quality visuals are delivered efficiently. The implementation process is also incredibly easy, thanks to their extensive library of sample sets, which makes getting started a breeze. Additionally, their support team is exceptionally responsive and helpful, ensuring quick resolutions to any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For 'What do you dislike about ImageKit?' we honestly do not have any concerns or topics to mention. The platform has consistently met our expectations and handled our requirements effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are now in our 4th year with ImageKit. At one point in 2021 we had nearly 100,000 product skus, each with a primary image in at minimum 3 sizes. About 25% of the products had more than one image 3x.

The 2 biggest selling points for us were ease of integration and named transforms.

Named transforms:

Internally our images all have suffixes that match a particular size, quality, etc. Our application can easily match that suffixes to a named transformation and have the image available just as we want it.

Ease of integrtion:

Because all transformations are query based, modifying an image is very easy to do. Many other CDNs use pre-extension image name suffixes to control transformations. When coding this requires a little more time to add/update. And at runtime, adds additional login that needs to be preformed, adding microseconds of time on render.

Their wordpress plugin is extremely simple. Because it just changes out the urls at rendertime, it is difficult to get it to integrate with themes that do more complex changes with images/galleries.

We are in the firearm industry. AI doesnt like firearms, hasnt been trained on firearms, and as such, cannot autotag accurately, cannot center a firearm product accurately. This is not a problem specific to ImageKit's implementstion, but to AI training as a whole where 'taboo' subject matter is ignored. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its very user friendly and simple to work and easy to implement Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far so good. But sometimes the page gets signed out that could be looked in to solve it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The online dashboard and media library management make working with lots of images across multiple elements of our website a breeze. Marketing and designers have almost no necessary onboarding needed to hit the ground running using ImageKit. Ingreation with our site has been seemless and the extensive amount of options present to manipulate images on the fly or at content delivery.

ImageKit has become the backbone image provider of our image-heavy product. Implementation was easy with almost no learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

URL endpoints are great for tracking, but it would be nice to be able to set which endpoint you wanted a batch of images to go to so when you copy/paste out urls, they're already ready. This is a small quip - obviously this can be setup on the integration side, but would be nice be able to establish before batching.

Only other quip, like others have said, a pricing tier between free and Pro would be nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was developing textintoimages.com which is a image editing platform, for that i required an media storage facility with transformation capabilities and ImageKit has been the perfect platform for my usage.

The ease of use through their native sdk has made life of developer very smooth by providing out of the box integration. Plus they provides CDN for images as well, which provides fast access to images making the overall user experience amazing.

Apart from this I also use the AI tag generation feature which helps to understand different use cases in my product.

I am very happy with ImageKit's all in one media solution, its easy to implement without any overhead. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There's nothing that I dislike about Imagekit.

Who provides these features with very generous plans these days ? Even biggest cloud providers aren't providing free plan. ImageKit is awesome. Period. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a developer I needed to find a suitable image hosting platform. Imagekit was it. I love how easy to use the API was and the resizing on the fly has been really, really handy.

Was easy to implement Imagekit onto our app and use it for both image uploads and image downloads. Although it's a low volume app, the free account has been absolutley ideal for our user base. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not too much to dislike. Did find the docs a little complex at times. But they have since been updated Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
