"An Easy-to-Use Tool for Editing Social Media Images"

4/5

What do you like best about Stencil?

Stencil is very easy to use and includes templates for several social media services. This allows you to optimize images for each platform and generate multiple images quickly. The built-in icons and stock photos are also extremely handy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stencil?

I wish there were more support for creating image collages a la PicMonkey. I've found that turning on the Facebook Ad grid can help but a drag and drop tool with a template would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Stencil:

Even if you don't see Stencial as a one-and-only tool, it can be helpful when used in conjunction with Canva, PicMonkey, Adobe Spark or other solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Stencil solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Stencil to create Pinterest images as well as other social media platforms. Although I sometimes combine tools to get the results I want, Stencil is likely my most-used service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficiency Booster for Social Marketers"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Stencil?

If you ever felt you need the speed to start creating fast and well-crafted images for social channels, Stencil may well be it. The user interface is intuitive and ux-friendly. No messy confusion on where to find what. Selecting the font type and images is a breeze. Use their preset template as a starting guide. Stencil comes with a huge library of free stock images and icons. In fact the icon library is not only huge, it comes organized with the related set icons. Oh, they just launched their wordpress plugin to work along within the WP media library! Sweet. And for chrome users, be sure to take advantage of their extension to quickly pull out Stencil's design interface and start designing efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Stencil?

The design Templates variety seem a little out-dated but then again, visual design is subjective. Nothing much to complain about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
