"Shutterstock is an essential part of my business."
5/5
What do you like best about Shutterstock?

The fact that you're able to find all types of assets, including images, video and audio provides a one stop shop for all my agency's needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shutterstock?

My only complaint is on the video side, as I currently have a plan with 10 downloads per month and I wish we could rollover downloads, as there are some months I don't need any video and other months when I need 20+ video downloads. That flexibility would make the experience unbeatable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Wealth of Photos, but Pricey to Maintain"

What do you like best about Shutterstock?

Shutterstock offers an extensive library with a wide range of images for every need. It provides editing options and grants commercial usage rights, making it a valuable resource for diverse creative projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shutterstock?

Shutterstock's cost is a drawback. Several alternative platforms offer comparable or even greater creative resources at significantly lower prices, making it less cost-effective for budget-conscious users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Top quality photos and Illustrations!"
5/5
What do you like best about Shutterstock?

I love the variety of content to choose from and that it is affordable and fits into our budget. I also like the ability to purchase images as needed using credits - some months are busier than others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shutterstock?

I really don't have many complaints. Our industry is dental and vision insurance so my only suggestion is if there is a way to add additional oral and overall health images/illustrations, along with benefit and insurance type icons, that would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
