"Seamless Media Hosting with a Generous Free Plan"
5/5
What do you like best about ImageKit?

I use ImageKit to upload media files like photos and videos for my website. I really appreciate the very good free tier plan; it covers most of my needs, and I found that the alternatives don't have such a good free tier. I like that it's easy to implement into projects and it has an easy setup process. Additionally, ImageKit's links make it simple to import media files directly into my website.

What do you dislike about ImageKit?

I would enjoy like a bit more bandwidth for video in the free tier plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple, Optimized, and Scalable Image CDN Solution"
4/5
What do you like best about ImageKit?

I’ve been using ImageKit.io for a month now and I’m really impressed with how easy it is to set up and integrate compared to other alternatives I tried. The installation process is straightforward, the optimization is excellent, and the platform makes handling images seamless without adding complexity to my workflow. It really feels like a plug-and-play solution for image optimization and delivery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ImageKit?

Earlier, the pricing gap between the free plan and the paid plan felt too steep, making it a bit difficult for small projects to scale affordably. However, with the introduction of the new middle-tier and early payment plans, this has improved a lot. I would definitely consider switching to one of those plans as my project grows.

"Convenient and Cost-Effective with Easy Setup"
5/5
What do you like best about ImageKit?

ImageKit is exceptionally convenient as it provides a URL for images, which I find incredibly useful for placing images on my website GlobalVisaAlly.com without the need to store them on my own server. The service is user-friendly and initially free, offering great value even when an upgrade becomes necessary due to its reasonable cost. The setup process was straightforward, which made integrating it into my workflow a breeze. Overall, the combination of ease of use, cost-effectiveness, and functionality makes ImageKit an outstanding tool for my needs, evident in my willingness to highly recommend it with a perfect score.

What do you dislike about ImageKit?

I find that ImageKit could be improved for mobile users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless Image & Video Optimization – A Must-Have for Media-Heavy Projects"
5/5
What do you like best about ImageKit?

ImageKit makes working with media online incredibly smooth. Their real-time image manipulation, smart CDN caching, and URL-based transformations are world-class. The React SDK is rock solid and integrates effortlessly into our frontend – zero surprises, just works. The platform feels mature, stable, and thoughtfully engineered, which saves our team hours of work weekly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ImageKit?

While the product quality is outstanding, pricing can feel steep—especially for smaller teams or projects with bursty traffic. A more flexible or usage-based tier could make it more accessible. That said, the time and infrastructure savings often still justify the cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Smooth image optimization and delivery experience with ImageKit"
5/5
What do you like best about ImageKit?

ImageKit has been a great asset to my website (www.multigyan.in) for image optimization and delivery. The integration was straightforward, and I really liked how quickly the images load via their CDN. Real-time image transformation features are very powerful and easy to use. Their generous free plan is perfect for small to medium projects. The dashboard is user-friendly, and the analytics help me keep track of bandwidth and image performance. Overall, it’s a solid product that just works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ImageKit?

So far, I haven't encountered any major issues. If I had to pick something, I would say their documentation could offer a few more detailed examples for custom use cases or advanced integrations. But overall, it’s been a very positive experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great for solo-developers to test before paying any money"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ImageKit?

- Great functionality for all basic needs related to images (storage, transformations, etc.) and videos;

- Good overall documentation, but there are always ways to improve it as well;

- Compared it mostly to Cloudinary, but ImageKit is noticeably cheaper and definitely more flexible on pricing;

- Great to see that product is improving with AI features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ImageKit?

- The design of Media Library seems a bit outdated;

- More documentation with different use cases, added benefit of which can be better results through LLM assistance;

- Plans restrictions related to MP limits can be explained better with examples (i.e. restrictions apply to the original files even if the transformed image is smaller using pre-transform parameters);

- Having different versions of the same file can be beneficial in some cases, but in other cases it's quite cumbersome to delete all previous versions if you want to save space;

- Custom domain is only available on the more expensive pro plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"ImageKit is an excellent option to delivery CDN assets"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ImageKit?

After researching and testing various services, I found ImageKit to be the best option. It stood out from the rest due to its perfect balance of quality and simplicity in storage. ImageKit offers an intuitive interface combined with high performance, making it the ideal solution for my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ImageKit?

The only thing I didn't like about ImageKit is that when updating an image already on the server, the direct link does not automatically update on the website. To make this happen, I need to add all the link properties, including the update line after the exclamation mark. This has been a drawback in the service because every time I update an image, I also have to update the corresponding link within the HTML. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Image Management with ImageKit"
4/5
What do you like best about ImageKit?

I find ImageKit to be incredibly user-friendly and cost-effective, which supports easy management of our news portal's image load. ImageKit has significantly improved our website’s speed and performance by reducing loading times and automatically optimizing images. The intuitive dashboard makes uploading and organizing images hassle-free for my developer team. ImageKit being a product of India, with data centers in Delhi and Mumbai, offers locality advantages aligning with my requirement to target the Indian audience. The seamless and quick setup process and the support for organized and high-quality image optimization streamline our content delivery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ImageKit?

I would want the ability for a small organization like us to customize our plan. There are some features that are not useful for us, and we would definitely want those at a cheaper price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
