On the PicMonkey homepage after you signup you'll find lots pre-built templates with text and various designs. I really like these templates and these templates can be a good starting point for a final quality photo. PicMonkey has many different fonts available with various styles to choose from and all of the styles can be customized. I like that text colors, effects, opacity can be changed and I can create even a watermark easily with these settings. One feature I like that PicMonkey has cloud storage facility to store my pictures so that I can create a library of my pictures easily. I am happy that PicMonkey has usual photo correction tools like cropping, resizing and various color correction tools like exposure control, color controls. curves and levels. PicMonkey has a very user-friendly interface. On the editing window it has clean tabs on the left for easier understanding. PicMonkey has a specific tab for portrait photos. It is called "touch-up" which consists of various tools like skin smooth, mouth retouch, eyes and other. It even has teeth whitening tool and red eye removal tool. These exclusive portrait really helpful for my work especially when I have portrait photos to work with. PicMonkey also has some extra elements to add to photos like overlays, frames, shapes, textures etc. These overlays & textures are customizable and not fixed meaning I can easily move them to any place on my picture.

PicMonkey is not a advanced photo editing software. While it has some tools for good photo editing but it lacks many significant photo editing tools. Also entire PicMonkey's UI is filled with ads. Whenever I have multiple photos to work with I can't use PicMonkey because it doesn't support batch photo editing. PicMonkey gives you many extra elements to add to photos but half of them is only available as a paid service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are many overlays and textures are available. These overlays and textures are very good when designing from scratch. Lastly PicMonkey has design templates. These design templates are very useful when you need to create photos quickly. I use these design templates and tweak them to create high quality graphics for our company.

PicMonkey is free but its ad supported meaning there are ads all over the UI. These ads can sometimes be really annoying. And sometimes these ads can be really distracting. Ad-free version is only available for premium membership. PicMonkey has mobile app but it doesn't have any windows or desktop app. Only way to access PicMonkey in desktop is through Browser which has it's own advantages and disadvantages.

Multiple features to edit and correct photos. There are different tools for different types of projects from portraits to scenery photos. The tools are also very user friendly and don't require high levels of technical knowledge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only program runs on Flash Player. This is out of date and will soon be incompatible with Chrome. It is frustrating to have to update Flash to run. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What is most helpful about PicMonkey is that the app is versatile, straightforward, and intuitive user interface experience with a tidy layout on both the website and mobile app. It categorises the fonts between types (Sans, Serif, Handwriting) an has a fade option to make the text layers blending with the photos. It also allows multiple themes and there is a comments section to show other team members why certain changes were made in the project files. There are also photo collages and add effects to photo options and they are stellar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use with PicMonkey is great for those who are less tech-savvy. Options are easy to find and processes are simple to learn. PicMonkey is constantly being updated and is always offering new templates to make your work easier to do every time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike?
For my uses - and the reason I don't currently use PicMonkey - is that it is too limiting for my needs. My job just got too big for PicMonkey to keep up. Also, the online nature of the program was sometimes frustrating when I had to work but did not have access to faster wifi. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Helps produce high-quality, professional content. It's easy to use for people who aren't trained in photoshop and people who aren't tech-savvy. PicMonkey has helped me produce better product photos, increase social media engagement, and increase revenue. I've built brand awareness through the content I've created on PicMonkey.
PicMonkey has templates to help create the perfect content for your business and social media pages. After using PicMonkey my traffic increased significantly and I gained followers on social media that regularly engage with my content.
You can create content with a blank canvas or you can upload your own photos, use stock photos, or upload from a website. If you pay for premium PicMonkey services you get access to the best templates, stock photos, and more editing options to improve the quality of your images.
PicMonkey also offers the option to build your own Brand Kit for your business. This allows you to upload your logos, colors, customized templates, and maintain your brand's design. It offers a one-stop-shop to add new elements or edit existing elements of your brand's content.
The Auto-hub feature saves all of your work and you can organize it as well by creating custom folders for each project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost is high compared to other services and you do need to pay for premium if you want to produce high-quality content for your social media pages, product photos, etc.
They do provide templates and stock photos to use if you purchase premium, but if you only use the free version of the software you don't get to use the best templates or stock photos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PicMonkey is easy to use and offers a lot of features. I was able to get started editing right away and my picture quality was improved dramatically vs just using a social media filter. It is very convenient to have all the tools need to edit in one location without having to switch between sites or programs. A new feature is editing video. This is a great option to create social media campaigns especially when keeping consistent branding across all posts is important. Users can upload and save brand information such as colors, fonts, and logos which allows for easy access from anywhere. PicMonkey has been adding more features for a more user friendly experience. I love being able to use the app and edit on the go when I am away from my computer and have a little free time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike?
PicMonkey use to offer a basic free version and a paid plan. They have switched to paid plans only. They do offer a free trial which may be helpful to some if they only have a few projects to complete however users will need the paid plan if they would like to keep their graphics consistent. The paid plans are tiered which means, depending on your budget, editing could be costly. The less expensive plan does not offer access to all the features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Quick and easy to edit photos - customised to specific needs of portraits, landscape and other projects. They have recently updated to a 'new picmonkey' with Beta testing and I'm VERY impressed with the range of templates for common design projects which must meet all small business owner's graphic design needs (youtube, ads, ebook cover etc) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike that PicMonkey does not have the same abilities as other editing software such as Illustrator. There a lot of tools missing that I think could really improve performance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PicMonkey has most of the essential tools needed to make graphics or edit photos that photoshop does, but its more user friendly in terms of interface and beginners knowledge. Like Photoshop without the technical jargon, but all the capability, at a fraction if the cost. I actually prefer the spot heal tool picmonkey provides over Adobe's. The addition of the hub made it 1000% worth its price. The remove background tool addition has made this even more the case. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cloning tool is a little clunky, and the new levels tool is nice but incredibly primitive in comparison to adobe Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The enjoyable experience while using PicMOnkey is that it merely enables a user to apply more than two hundred different types of effects to any photo to edit them in a better way possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The major dislike thing about PicMonkey is that it has a limitation in terms of image size meaning you cannot upload and edit images with large capacity, which can get annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn't much I don't like about this program. It requires no download, has a great assortment of fonts and templates. It's simple to use with intuitive design features and it's constantly evolving! I have access to other "high end" editors, the full adobe suite for example, but I still use PicMonkey the most. I also love the tutorials they have on the site. When I first started working with PicMonkey I couldn't get enough of them! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I dislike is that not all of the features available on the mobile platform are available on the desktop version, and vice versa. Though they did recently make all filters available in both places and they added in a Pro level subscription this week which may have the additional features in it, I only have the basic version so I'm not sure.

I really love that Picmonkey because it is very user friendly and I can make collages easily for my wedding photography website and also for my social media pages. I also love that you don't need to be a subscriber in order to make collages and edit photos on the site! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What do you dislike?
Sometimes the site can be slow, depending on how many photos that are uploaded at one time that I am working on. Sometimes also it can take a while to generate an image into a collage because the site can be slow. As long as you do not upload too many photos at one time it works perfectly!
