"They misrepresent their pricing plans."
0/5
What do you like best about Artlist?

Nothing. Their subscriptions are shady and their customer service is terrible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Artlist?

It appeared that I was paying for a $25 plan that explicitly said monthly and price per month. They charged $300 for an entire year and refuse to refund me for the rest of the year because I downloaded one song. They are making me pay $300 for one song and will not assist me or be fair in how they present their service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Artlist.io - licensed music made simple"
5/5
What do you like best about Artlist?

I love that when I download a song from Artlist.io, I will not be bombarded with copyright notices on YouTube as I have been with other services. One of the most frustrating things about licensing music is having to prove time and time again that, yes, I do have permission to use this music. Artlist does a great job of ensuring I don't have to spend time fighting to prove it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Artlist?

If there was one thing to dislike about Artlist, it's that there is so much good music that it can be difficult finding the perfect song I want to use! But I feel like that's a good problem to have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Artlist Really Delivers"
5/5
What do you like best about Artlist?

What I like best about Artlist is the quality of the audio clips. There are lots of places where creators can get free music to use in their content, but free music usually equals poor quality music. Artlist offers a huge selection of tracks by top artists in a massive variety of styles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Artlist?

What I dislike about Artlist is that downloading clips can be cumbersome. I have to receive an email and then respond to it in order to get download access. I already pay for the platform. I already have a login. Make it super easy for me to download. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Stock Music Licensing Terms online!"
5/5
What do you like best about Artlist?

I've experimented with a variety of royalty-free stock music subscription services, and Artlist is by far the best, mainly because of its generous and expansive commercial usage license system. No other stock music service allows for unlimited commercial use under a single license. To put it another way, once you license a song and download it while your membership is active, you can use it in an unlimited number of commercial projects without fear of the license expiring or copyright infringement, even when the music is used in theatrical release films or on OTT platforms. As long as the music is being used in a video project, you can rest assured that the Artlist license terms will safeguard your content from future copyright claims!

What do you dislike about Artlist?

Artlist's subscription costs are not among the most affordable on the market, and the procedure of licensing and downloading each music is extremely time-consuming and inconvenient. Artlist has already set a daily limit of 40 licensed downloads. However, in addition to the download restriction, Artlist has imposed a number of unnecessary additional procedures for downloading each music, which leads to a significant waste of time and energy that could have been spent on more important duties. Apart from the aforementioned disadvantage, Artlist is pretty awesome! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Artlist new form of music license for videos"
4/5
What do you like best about Artlist?

I like the truth, originality and the adventure of knowing such wonderful music.

It is an excellent tool for virtual course music, I use it mainly for the variety and very good sounds they have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Artlist?

Well, as every application pays, I understand the benefit it is for the people who create content, however I cannot afford to buy their songs, I would like a more accessible price for individuals and not as much as an investment of a company to put their music in the background with a "high" cost, for my pocket.

"Easily and Inexpensively get music for your films!"
5/5
What do you like best about Artlist?

Both the pricing and usability of the website are incredibly affordable and simple to use. When one's making a video, you need ready access to lots of different options, which Artlist does indeed make very simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Artlist?

I wish from time to time, that they had more expansive music options & sometimes the music they have isn't the greatest quality as compared to something like MusicBed for instance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Affordable option for stock music"
5/5
What do you like best about Artlist?

I like the annual subscription price for the value and the amount of music that's available at that price. I also like that the licenses are already worked out, so it's not something I have to worry about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Artlist?

While there's a lot of search options and filters, I often find myself endlessly scrolling through music trying to find the best clips for my projects. That's not necessarily an indictment on the platform, but maybe there's another way to help a user select music. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Unfortunately, Sometimes I search for Arabic music tracks with Arabin instruments Like "Oud or Nay" but I couldn't find many options of this style of music on Artlist Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Prenium Sounds and Excellent Quality Music"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Artlist?

Something that differentiates Artlist from any other music library is definitely how you can easily tell that their music is premium. It doesn't sound so much cliche as other stock music providers. There's also less chance for another content creator to use the same exact music as yours since their don't have yet the market share when it comes to stock music. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Artlist?

The annual price. It is pretty expensive compare to the competition and I wonder if it is one of the reasons why they are not in the top 3 choices yet. If they offer the cheaper option or month-to-month option they will definitely attract more people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
