What do you like best about Vecteezy?

I love the layout of this website, it has lots of useful stuff, high resolution images for you to choose from. I sometimes spend more than an hour searching on this, cuz I need some vectors as a reference that I can use in my presentation. You can easily find clean vector graphics, icons, and illustrations without instantly needing to pull out your credit card. And I really like the Remove background tool as well, so cool to try it. The second one is the searching tool is mostly straightforward too, you know you can set filters to only see free files, svg files, or even choose based on the background style. But most importantly, a huge plus I would all of you know this....is discovering their built-in editor where I could make small changes (changing colors, etc) all in-browser without having to download an asset to open it up in a big design app first.

What do you dislike about Vecteezy?

The biggest problem with Vecteezy is how sneaky they get sometimes. When I’m looking for free assets on the website, they always pop up with these annoying Ads from Adobe Stock at the top row of my search results. Every now and then you click on some nice picture because it’s on Vecteezy… And suddenly you’re redirected to another page where this image costs money! Oh nooo! Even if I did find one that was perfect there would still be tons of hassle around licensing and how they expect you to give them attribution (by adding a link back to vecteezy) onto any final products – no thanks. There’s always a massive gamble here too regarding the quality of each vector – some have been great with nice looking layers but most of them look like total crap in illustrator. You’d probably spend way more time fixing their messes than actually working on client projects because of this… Couple all of these issues with their strict limitations around how many files you can download from their site per day as a ‘free’ account and I’m pretty sure you could see a big drop off in productivity when you need to get things done fast!

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

I'm a freelancer who often works on tight turnarounds. A big pain point with my work was having to start every visual project from scratch – whether it be by drawing basic vector icons, backgrounds, or other simple vector visuals manually. Before using Vecteezy, these tasks would take up valuable time (and profit!) as I'd have to spend hours manually making them. By having access to a massive bank of already made vectors, I can now make layout mockups quickly without stressing out over how long it'll take to create them manually. No more staring at a blank canvas while trying to figure out what to draw! It's also solves the financial strain of expensive stock subscriptions, especially Stock subscription costs are always going to be higher than you want to spend (especially if your budget is tight). This means many people might feel they can’t afford to pay those high fees per image just because it’s good enough for some project. And the ability to simply pull up an appropriate vector and then manipulate its color palette within their browser tool makes this much less painful — no longer does each designer have to download anything onto his or her machine first… saving precious minutes behind-the-scenes on one’s own computer.
