AZ Austin Z. Digital Advertising Manager Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 10/7/2025 More Options - "For the editors who don't want another subscription" 5/5 What do you like best about GIMP? A powerful program that has features like the paid programs without the subscription fee. The tool is easy to use and boots up decently fast on capable machines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about GIMP? Some of the more advanced features found in other paid tools is just not here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is GIMP solving and how is that benefiting you? I take photos of people sometimes and I need to touch up parts of photos. This software is very capable of doing photo touch ups.
