What do you like best about PicMonkey?

It fits comfortable as I was using photoshop earlier; it has enough options to create things, has easy templates, the layout is initutive, and it is straightforward to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PicMonkey?

What do you dislike about PicMonkey?

Nothing less helpful, I will say I've become more accustomed to using a competitor (didn't want to pay for 2 subscriptions), so I rarely use it now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PicMonkey makes it easy to edit images and graphics and makes it easier to create content with its templates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I find so helpful about PicMonkey, Is that it's so easy to just sign up and use, and if you are a creative person you can do whatever you put your mind to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PicMonkey?

The only thing I don´t like about picmonkey is that you can't buy it as a one-time purchase, you have to pay either yearly or monthly, at least the price isn't a lot but still. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PicMonkey solving and how is that benefiting you?

One huge problem that PicMonkey solves for me is that, it helps me finish work faster because of how easy there interface is to use, so it helps me get clients work done faster Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PicMonkey?

I really love that I'm able to customize any picture that I want to. I typically use the "graphics" option, where I can put squares and circles on my pictures to highlight my presentations. I've had a subscription since 2017! I used to edit my pictures with it when I was in high school, and I can't attach myself to any other editing program like I do with Picmonkey! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PicMonkey?

The new update takes me longer to find everything. It takes me a long time to find the brush tool and the eraser tools as well. And there used to be a little pop-up where I could alter the opacity and now it's very hidden on the left side. Also, I know you probably get this a lot, but I wish there was a student discount, or even a teacher one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PicMonkey:

Please have a student/teacher discount Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PicMonkey solving and how is that benefiting you?

I like to use the graphics to help with my pictures and presentations. I mainly use it if I have to use a circle or a square to highlight something in the picture. I appreciate the resizing as well. I definitely use that as well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PicMonkey?

After 10 years of using PicMonkey's free version, I upgraded to the pro plan last year for two key benefits: Instantly reformat to multiple sizes with Smart Resize and the One-click background remover. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PicMonkey?

Currently, I most dislike an awkward log-in that repeatedly offers a magic link versus using a conventional saved or unsaved email plus password. I use many, many applications and the extra steps to log in to PicMonkey are a time-waster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PicMonkey solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a digital publisher, PicMonkey is useful for creating quality, promotional digital design w/o a high cost or extra design time. Lately, I've been customizing their formatted templates for mastheads and social channel design. The Hub, where I save new work in designated folders, is a central storage system with easy and supported access to edit design assets. The support will not permit direct editing access to an archived design by reminding and requiring you to make a new copy to edit. It's a helpful and straightforward safety precaution. PicMonkey remains a valuable tool to resize sponsor-provided banners to fit our CMS specifications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PicMonkey?

PicMonkey is awesome to use for photo editing. It shows you how to use multiple features so even beginners have no trouble using the site. It also has options for more advanced photo editors. Very comparable to higher-end photo editing services, but much more user friendly and affordable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PicMonkey?

The site has a few options that are more like presets for your photos. I've found that these options are usually way too harsh for the photo and instead makes it look like some of the filters you can find on social media. You can pick how intense you want these options to be, but typically I can't find a good middle ground without making the image seem very overdone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PicMonkey solving and how is that benefiting you?

PicMonkey is great for creating advertising images on a budget. The site makes it very easy to overlay other images or text to create the perfect graphic. The user friendly layout of the site is a huge benefit as it can help businesses who may not have as much experience with creating graphics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
