Storyblocks Reviews & Product Details

Storyblocks has an extraordinarily deep and wide library of usable resources for stock video footage, stock audio (including musical tracks suitable for trailers and videos), and stock images in both vector and photographic forms. The interface is intuitive and easy to use, especially ability to define multiple folders and add assets to several of them as appropriate. The integration with Adobe products (e.g., Premiere and After Effects) is convenient, though I mostly use the web interface. Searches work well and are quick to respond. Pricing is decent considering the sheer amount of material available and the generous licensing terms. Support was quick to respond the one time I had an issue, but mostly the interface and functions are clear enough that no help is needed. There are AI features but I do not use them.

The major downside is pricing; it's great for now, because I'm able to use it through the university I'm currently working with, but it'll be expensive to keep up with once I have to pay for my own license. Until then, I have no problems with it at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love using Storyblocks for its templates for Apple Motion, as well as its extensive stock footage, music, and sound effects collections. The pre-made tools it provides help me spend more time creating content by drastically saving time. The search features are really nice, allowing me to dig deep and find what I'm looking for. I also appreciate that the selection in almost every category has grown significantly over the years, and there's always something new whenever I log on. The ability to preview or listen to something before downloading is really nice and isn't offered everywhere. The consistent core structure and layout sold us on a business account, and it's very easy to share the account across our organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Even though there's been vast improvements, I don't think the search filters are perfect yet. Some items aren't classified correctly so options get missed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In our workflow, we prepare product concept presentations, training materials, and internal project updates where technical drawings alone are not enough. Storyblocks helps me quickly find professional stock videos, industrial visuals, icons, and background music that make these presentations more engaging. I especially like the clean search experience and the wide range of royalty-free assets, which saves me from searching across multiple websites. I mainly use it during project documentation and presentation work, and it helps me deliver polished content with much less effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our team started using Storyblocks when our productions were really limited by the pandemic, and it has happily become a regular part of our workflow. With team access and plenty of options, we’re able to pull music, footage, images, and AE templates that genuinely support our productions. The content they offer is outstanding, and we’ve used their music and footage to keep our clients happy while producing outstanding content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

They do a great job keeping up with footage and our needs, but I’d really like to see them expand their library of assets and elements that can add extra zip to the work we’re already doing. More animated lines, background textures, and other elements to support the production workflow would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Storyblocks is that it is very easy to use and I can quickly find photos and video clips for my work. In my daily routine I handle diet guidance, manage a homeopathy clinic and also create health education content, so I need simple visuals to explain things.

I use it regularly to get healthy food and lifestyle images which I add in my videos and teaching content. It saves my time because I dont have to search on many websites. Features are simple but useful and it also fits easily with my editing work.

Overall it helps me make my content more clear and better for patients and students without making things complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it takes a little time to find the exact type of image or clip I need, especially when I am searching for very specific diet or medical related visuals. Results are good, but I have to scroll a bit more to get the most suitable one. some clips feel a bit similar, so I need to spend some time selecting the best one for my content. Apart from this, it works well for my daily work and I did not face any major problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Storyblocks has such a great interface that makes it easy to search assets. There's a plethora of options. My favorite to use are the templates. They allow me create quickly when I need something dynamic. It has an array of template options that I can use with After Effects and Premiere. The folders always come with tutorials and examples video that are super helpful. The audio future that allows you to search by many different factors, such as duration, moods and genres, is a great way to narrow my search. Downloading is easy, and over all workflow is great. I can implement the assets easily within my projects, because all the files integrated with my Adobe Suite. We use it on average a weekly to monthly basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I honestly can't say I have any issues with the platform. Ive never had any technical issues. My team has been using it for more than 4 years. I don't think I've ver had to speak with customer support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the variety and selection of video clips, and I also appreciate how they’re compressed while still maintaining high quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Maybe they should include some AI video creation on every plan tier so users can try it out, especially when there are custom B-roll requests. Right now, the AI function feels very limiting, and it pushes users to use other platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is good variety. And for you visual folks don't forget 50 percent of your creation is sound. Storyblocks has some excellent effects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would rather ignore your use of AI. Creatives should have a thoughtful process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love Storyblocks for its large library of video and music, which I use for my history documentaries on YouTube. It's really easy to find content by keywords or theme. Additionally, I value the ability to preview all videos quickly and build a folder with content before even purchasing the service. Everything I need is available directly on their website without needing to set up anything extra. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that Storyblocks doesn't use AI footage and is all human-made, which is really important to me. The stock footage is a lifeline for my educational videos, making my channel much more engaging and captivating for viewers. It's essential for my work as an independent producer and educator. The setup was literally the easiest I've ever had, blowing others out of the water. I also had a great experience with customer service, especially with Harry, who was awesome.
