"Powerful tool for managing and optimizing media content"
What do you like best about Cloudinary?

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.

Response from Eugene Musebe of Cloudinary

We're thrilled to hear that Cloudinary has significantly improved the way you manage media content on your projects. Our automatic optimization and fast CDN delivery are designed to enhance website performance without sacrificing quality. We appreciate your feedback about the admin panel and pricing, and we're constantly working to improve user experience and offer more flexible plans for all types of projects.

"Effortless Asset Management for Large Teams"
What do you like best about Cloudinary?

Easy way for our large company to use/look through all creative assets while having the correct URL needed to be used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudinary?

Sometimes when scrolling through large amounts of assets, it becomes laggy. I wish there were an easier way to locate images or if there was some way to search details of an images and it were able to find it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Eugene Musebe of Cloudinary

Thank you for sharing your positive experience with Cloudinary. We understand the importance of efficient asset management for large teams and we're continuously working to enhance the user experience. Your input about asset search functionality is valuable, and we'll take it into consideration for future updates.

"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.

What do you dislike about Cloudinary?

I don’t have any major complaints. Nothing in particular stands out as a problem at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Asset Organization and Sharing"
What do you like best about Cloudinary?

It's easy to organise assets and share assets with external members of the business Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudinary?

You can't reverse search an image - if I have an asset I've found, but don't know where it's stored in cloudinary, I can't search using the image. A feature similar to google image search would be useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Eugene Musebe of Cloudinary

Thank you for sharing your experience with Cloudinary. We understand the importance of a reverse image search feature and will pass along your suggestion to our product development team for review.

"Clean UI and Effortless Scaling for Internal Use"
What do you like best about Cloudinary?

Very clean UI - easy to scale with clear folders - always works Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudinary?

Nothing really we use it for so much internally. Maybe having a clearer distinction between private and public asset urls? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Eugene Musebe of Cloudinary

We're glad to hear that you find our UI clean and easy to scale. We appreciate your feedback about the distinction between private and public asset URLs and will take it into consideration for future improvements.

"Using Cloudinary to power our e-commerce site"
What do you like best about Cloudinary?

Cloudinary allows us to support image creation for our catalog of many thousands of items. Our developers lean heavily on the query-parameter based parameterization in order to quickly build and support new transformation types as needed. We appreciate the clarity of both the API and documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cloudinary?

As Cloudinary is an end-to-end solution, we would prefer to use particular components a la carte and forego others, such as the ability to skip the Cloudinary CDN and front everything in our own CDN. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Eugene Musebe of Cloudinary

Thanks for the thoughtful review! We're glad Cloudinary's API and transformation tools are helping power your e-commerce experience at scale. We hear your feedback on modularity and CDN flexibility — it’s on our radar as we continue evolving the platform.
