Cloudinary Reviews & Product Details

One of the most helpful things about Cloudinary is its ease of use and intuitive platform. I feel like even non-technical users can quickly upload, organise, and optimise media without a steep learning curve. The dashboard is clean and user-friendly, making it easy to manage images and videos in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One thing I dislike about Cloudinary is that the pricing can become expensive as usage grows. As storage, bandwidth, and transformations increase, costs can rise quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use and image quality are excellent; compressing images is simple — you don't need to do anything except upload the files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The initial load time and search speed are slow, and there are limited analytics tools available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I greatly appreciate Cloudinary for its ability to easily sort and share all our visual photos and videos, which is crucial for our campaigns that involve many different media. The sorting feature using metadata is particularly remarkable, it allows me to quickly find what I need and saves us valuable time. Moreover, the simplicity of using Cloudinary, especially during the initial setup, was very pleasant. The installation was done easily and quickly, which facilitated adoption by our team. Overall, these elements make Cloudinary very valuable for our daily activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I browse through all the visuals, they sometimes take a while to display. Improving this aspect would be a plus. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I greatly appreciate the metadata function in Cloudinary, as it allows me to efficiently sort and catalog our files. It is particularly useful for specifying vital information such as shooting dates and locations, product codes, as well as primary and secondary materials. Moreover, it facilitates the distinction between creations and raw visuals, and offers great utility for managing different file formats and orientations. By using Cloudinary, I can also avoid file duplicates and easily retrieve documents thanks to detailed metadata. This makes the display on our website and our Google campaigns much smoother and more organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The video studio feature on Cloudinary does not meet all my expectations. Ideally, I would like to be able to edit videos by adding text and integrating Excel files for translation to create adapted versions for different countries. Additionally, it would be very beneficial to have basic effects and transitions available to facilitate video editing directly on Cloudinary, which would allow us to have only one visual for all our languages.

Easy to use for uploading and hosting images for our ecommerce website Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the display of all our hosted content is messy and hard to navigate. Not a huge issue just a small blocker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Eight months ago when I did initial review, I was using Cloudinary almost daily but not as much as I started using it about six months ago. I've been using Cloudinary much, much more these days. I'm transitioning away from creating websites for other people and building out my own websites for my own domains, which means my use of Cloudinary has skyrocketed over the last 8 - 10 months, and there are more things I can do with Cloudinary that I could have always done with Cloudinary if I'd been using as much as I'm using it now. My next big project on Cloudinary will be doing a great deal more with video hosting. I've always used it mainly with images, but Cloudinary is not limited to just working with images.

I would love to see Cloudinary add more tiers to their plans. They go from a free plan to a Plus plan, and the Plus plan is $99 a month. Many of my clients are very small business owners and/or individual bloggers not making money from their websites. Asking them to pay $99 a month to manage 10 to 100 images is too much. I always pitch the free tier of Cloudinary to my clients, but I'd love to be able to also send paying subscribers Cloudinary's way, also. The Free plan provides 25 credits per month. The Plus plan provides 225 credits per month. What if there was a 25/month plan with 75 or 100 credits and/or $45/month plan with 180 credits? I have more confidence that I could promote those types of plaid plans to my clients than the $99. As for Cloudinary itself and what it offers, there's still nothing I dislike about the service. Everything I want to do, it does and I'm discovering other things I can do now that I'm using it a great deal more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It organizes my images very well and the search function is easy to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's not very user friendly to adjust image size. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Cloudinary for hosting my images and videos for my website, which makes managing my content really easy and efficient. I love how I can simply upload a photo or video and grab the URL to seamlessly integrate it onto my website. It significantly optimizes my images for fast loading times, thereby improving my page speed, which is very important for user experience and SEO. What I find remarkable about Cloudinary is its ease of use, with a straightforward setup process that is frictionless and user-friendly. The image transformations are a fantastic feature, providing high versatility and customization options right out of the box. I used to use Cloudflare before, but I found Cloudinary much easier to understand and use, which I greatly appreciate. The entire experience with Cloudinary has been positive and hassle-free for my particular use case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't really dislike anything. Evertything I've wanted to use Cloudinary for I've been easily able to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Cloudinary for its capability to upload and store creative assets and website assets, essentially acting as a cloud for our photography. It solves the problem of accessing our storage from anywhere, which is incredibly convenient for my workflow. The ease of creating a link and sending it to coworkers enhances collaboration and sharing efficiency. I also love the categories feature that helps refine my search, making it easier to locate specific assets quickly. The initial setup of Cloudinary was quite straightforward, contributing to a smooth transition and user experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find it challenging that when I upload assets to Cloudinary, they don't upload directly to specified folders. Instead, they go into a general pool of assets, requiring additional steps to move them over. I also wish there was functionality for conducting image searches using an image as the search query. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Cloudinary to store all kinds of assets and documents from my applications both professionally and personally, which offers me a lot of convenience. I love the ease with which I can quickly transport the assets. The integration is extremely easy and that optimizes my work time thanks to the speed at which I can operate. The options for transforming and editing images and videos are simple and varied, allowing me to optimize and ensure that images are stored in the webp format, in addition to controlling quality and compression. I like being able to save only the necessary information of the asset, such as automatically cropping a profile photo. The initial setup process was excellently easy. I am very satisfied with the prices and always recommend Cloudinary to friends and colleagues, rating it a 10 on a scale of 1 to 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Handling all types of assets that are not images or videos, such as PDFs, xlsx, and others, can be problematic in Cloudinary. I have to use the resource_type = raw or auto, and these don't always work well. The files sometimes become corrupted or are saved incorrectly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
