"Cloudinary are wizards when it comes to images and video"
What do you like best about Cloudinary?

Cloudinary provides instant transformations on all of out images used in a large scale ecommerce site. They are fast and their image optimizations are insane. We can apply filters, scaling, cropping and a ton of other optimizations through a simple URL parameter and get the image we want/need nearly as fast the first time than an image that already exists.

Cloudinary has significantly improved the way we manage images and videos on our projects. The automatic optimization of file sizes and formats makes websites load much faster without sacrificing quality. I really like the flexibility of transformations, the fast CDN delivery, and the ability to store all assets in one central place. It saves a lot of time for both developers and content creators. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudinary?

The admin panel sometimes seems overloaded, especially for new users who are just getting to grips with advanced transformations. Some features require additional study of documentation or tutorials. Additionally, more flexible pricing plans would be desirable for small teams or projects with medium traffic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Asset Management for Large Teams"

"Switching to Cloudinary for our training videos, we've experienced flawless streaming performance!"
What do you like best about Cloudinary?

The streaming performance has been a complete game-changer for our cybersecurity awareness training program. Before switching to Cloudinary, we constantly dealt with buffering issues and inconsistent video quality that frustrated both our team and trainees. Now, our videos load instantly and stream smoothly regardless of the viewer's connection speed or device. What really sets Cloudinary apart for me is their dynamic transformation capabilities. Being able to automatically optimize video quality, resize content on-the-fly, and deliver the perfect format for each user's device has eliminated so many headaches. It's incredibly satisfying to finally have a platform that just works reliably, letting us focus on creating great training content instead of troubleshooting technical issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudinary?

Early on we ran into some issues around dynamic transformations causing our videos to be constantly reprocessed, which then made the video fail to load while the processing was happening. The documentation is comprehensive, but I found myself spending more time than anticipated figuring out the proper settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Eugene Musebe of Cloudinary

Thanks for the great feedback! We're thrilled to hear that Cloudinary's streaming performance and dynamic transformations are powering a smoother, more reliable training experience. We appreciate the note on early transformation challenges our team is always working to make setup faster and more intuitive.
