"Create an avatar for Wordpress with Gravatar"
What do you like best about Gravatar?

Gravatar is super interesting because you can upload a photo or image with which you can identify yourself when you write comments or draft a blog. I like to use an avatar because it helps us be recognized on the web with an image. The way to create them is very simple and the website is quite user-friendly. There are no complications in using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gravatar?

There is absolutely nothing I dislike about Gravatar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A great universal login avatar system, but is it needed?"
What do you like best about Gravatar?

It's good to that man sites use Gravatar and it automatically uses the same avatar as a profile picture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gravatar?

It's not really needed. It's a good feature but not really something I couldn't do without. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Dumbest Wordpress Tool I Have Come Across In The Last 5 Years"
What do you like best about Gravatar?

Nothing at all, it is such an unnecessary step to upload a damn user picture on wordpress Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gravatar?

Everything, it took me on the biggest loop of a journey to just upload an image, where in the past I could easily upload one from the wordpress media library. Why add a stupid and unnecessary step like this??? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A streamlined way to update social profiles"
What do you like best about Gravatar?

I like that Gravatar can automatically update my profile in many different social media accounts. The features are so simple, which is what makes it really great. I like that it works with WordPress, which is a platform our company uses often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gravatar?

Gravatar doesn't work with all social media profiles. I think if we can update more elements of our social media accounts, that would make it more meaningful to many users, including us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It lets me establish and an online presence faster"
What do you like best about Gravatar?

Gravatar works with lots of websites, so it's value as a universal avatar service is actually among the best of its kind. It was very easy to sign up with Gravatar, post my basic information and upload my avatar photo. I like that Gravatar is closely connected to WordPress since WordPress is a platform that we work closely with on many different types of projects. There is a also a large user base with Gravatar and associated websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gravatar?

There aren't bunch of features included with Gravatar. It's basically as straightforward a service as it sounds. I think that the Gravatar platform has many opportunities it can leverage to make its service for valuable for its users. It's just not nearly reached its potential the way it exists now.

"Help us create a personal brand"
What do you like best about Gravatar?

What I liked the most is that it allows me to have an avatar that identifies me and gives me presence on the Internet. It is very important considering that as professionals it is necessary to create a personal brand and have some visibility on the Internet. It saves time since it is not necessary to upload a photo or write my details every time I interact on a Wordpress blog because the avatar is already defined. It is very good that Gravatar allows adding several different emails without having to create a profile for each one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gravatar?

Gravatar really has many advantages. The only thing I would like is for them to expand their service to other platforms and for it to truly be a universal avatar service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Gives me a consistent profile presence online"
What do you like best about Gravatar?

Being able to have the same profile picture is something I really like. Even though it seems like adding a profile picture is an quick and easy task, it can sometimes be more complicated when adjusting the look for the right dimensions and positioning. I like that I can just log into whatever commenting account I plan to use and my image is set for me with the look that fits the platform I'm using. Setting the Gravatar image is a quick process that I only need to do once. I can also change it once across all platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gravatar?

There isn't a whole lot that Gravatar can do aside from setting my profile image. I think since Gravatar has been around a while, they might be able to develop other convenient features that can maybe integrate multiple social accounts. I can't really say much that's negative about Gravatar since it does do what it's supposed to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Gravatar is a great app for collecting and publishing contact and about you information."
What do you like best about Gravatar?

A friend recommended Gravatar to me a few months ago when I was starting a blog. Using it is easy. It shows up nicely on my blog. It's clean, professional and fast. I didn't need any instruction. I filled out the simple form, uploaded my image and was off to the races as they say. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gravatar?

This is a great app. It's simple to set up and to use. Maybe more examples when setting up might help as when you're confronted with the blank form it's easy to get stage fright. I have no complaints for suggestions for improvement Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"An avatar on multiple platforms"
What do you like best about Gravatar?

I like being able to set a single representative photo or image across multiple platforms; it's very important for creating a personal brand and presence on various blogs and internet media. It's easy to implement, and there are even plugins for Wordpress that make its integration into website creation easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gravatar?

There is nothing that I don't like, as it is simple to implement and for programmers, the Gravatar page itself has resources so they can implement it on their websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Gold standard for showing avatars on WordPress sites"
What do you like best about Gravatar?

Given the prominence of WordPress as a platform, it's nice to have a solution where users can leverage a single profile which goes with them across the different sites they use and visit. Implementation is a snap and doesn't create a lot of risks or overhead when building out a site. For users that have taken the steps to set up a profile, the presence of their avatar helps add a bit of trust and legitimacy to areas where the users interact with one another, either with accounts or comments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Gravatar?

It can be a bit slow to pick up changes made to a profile, but given the scope of the distribution that is needed for such a product, it's easy to give a pass. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
