I like the variety of pricing and the ease of navigation the most. I also like the weekly "free" footage clip of the week in their weekly e-mail newsletters.
Video wise, there are a lot of options available to you. It's easy to find the type of video you want through searches that target taglines. Mostly good quality all around. They thankfully offer 4k and ProRes.
Music wise, they put together a variety of sounds for various genres such as "Ambient/Background", "Documentary", "Video Game", "Dramatic" etc. You can also navigate tunes by describing the mood you are looking to convey. It is also easy to license music too. They make it very easy to understand and license according to your distribution needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Fair warning, there are A LOT of corporate stock footage and tunes. The less corporate / general footage or sound you want, the higher the prices gets too. There is no one price with high quality footage at Pond5.
I am often looking for something less corporate / something with more depth and that is hard to find here. If you're looking for footage or music for corporate backgrounds or presentatations, this place will fit your needs perfectly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
