"Makes Technical Presentations More Engaging"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Storyblocks?

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.

"True partner with growing assets"
5/5
What do you like best about Storyblocks?

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.

What do you dislike about Storyblocks?

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.

"Very Helpful for Health Education Videos and Diet Content Visuals"
5/5
What do you like best about Storyblocks?

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.

What do you dislike about Storyblocks?

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.

"Vast, High-Quality Royalty-Free Library with Great Value Unlimited Downloads"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Storyblocks?

It stands out for its vast library of high-quality, royalty-free stock videos, images, music, sound effects, and motion graphics. The unlimited-download model offers excellent value, making it easy to access creative assets without worrying about additional licensing costs. The platform is intuitive, the search filters are effective, and new content is added regularly, which helps speed up content creation for marketing, social media, and video production projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Storyblocks?

While the library is extensive, some niche or highly specialized content can feel limited compared to premium stock platforms. Search results also occasionally surface very similar assets, which can make it take a little longer to find something unique. It would be helpful to have more advanced AI-powered search and content recommendation features to narrow results faster and improve discovery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Asset Search, Dynamic Templates, and a Smooth Workflow"
5/5
What do you like best about Storyblocks?

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.

What do you dislike about Storyblocks?

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.

"High-Quality, Well-Compressed Video Clips with Great Variety"
5/5
What do you like best about Storyblocks?

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.

What do you dislike about Storyblocks?

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.

What do you dislike about Storyblocks?

I love almost everything about this platform but I feel that the price can be made a little lower though the feature provided by this platform fits the price. It is also worth mentioning that to be very efficient in using this platform the user may need a good time exploring and understanding this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Tool for Captivating Educational Content"
5/5
What do you like best about Storyblocks?

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.

I like everything about it. I have zero complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
