"Moderate experience for free price"
4/5
What do you like best about Google Fonts?

I like that this project offers a huge selection of fonts and it hardly ever happens that I cannot find something for myself. It's also free to use! Plus, hugely community driven because of it open source characteristics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Fonts?

I wish I could specify which pages or sections of my website should use a particular font, which is currently not possible. It would be nice to be able to save fonts for later, sometimes I get lost in the rabbit hole and forget to save links. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great service to integrate custom fonts into you web projects"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Google Fonts?

Love the choices, the guides, and the simplicity of the integration Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Fonts?

Sometimes load times drastically worsen when integrating Google Fonts. Given that Google actually ranks you lower if your load times are not the best, this is a bit of a dilemma, when both services are coming from the same company Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great standard features"
4/5
What do you like best about Google Fonts?

The selection of fonts will be appropriate for most projects, and by nature is great as a cost effective solution where fonts with advanced features are not required. This makes Google fonts excellent for entry-level custom font usage, however they can be used to great effect in professional and larger scale projects too.

The Google fonts website makes it easy to search and filter these fonts, and the font pairing suggestions can be helpful too.

Whether embedding the fonts from Google's CDN or hosting locally, it is really easily to either download or reference them, with some really handy guides from the folks at Google. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Fonts?

The CDN service of the fonts can deceive users/developers into thinking they will load quickly, which isn’t necessarily the case. Although Google have helped by providing a very rough estimate of delivery speed, this is very approximate and quite inaccurate. More advice on self-hosting would be useful.

The same point that makes Google fonts great, the range, also makes it not so great as there are a fair few lower standard fonts with limited families. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Google Fonts : An Ultimate Tool for Enhancing Texts"
4/5
What do you like best about Google Fonts?

One of Google Fonts highlights is that it provides free text styles that mean fonts and icons.

We can use them for different activities in our life, like in paper presentations, projects, assignments etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Fonts?

Some of the downsides of Google Fonts are that we can not fully customize its fonts, and many users use them. Google Fonts may not be suitable for all design projects, especially those requiring more unique or custom typography. Some designers may prefer to work with premium or create custom fonts for more personalized and unique designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very easy to use, and the available selection is plenty. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Fonts?

There isn't much to dislike, other than perhaps I wish there were more available fonts and more "premium" looking options vs a lot of stylized options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
