Practicality and Ease with Cloudinary
What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate the convenience that Cloudinary offers. It is extremely easy to use, and the initial setup was very simple, which is a great advantage since I didn't encounter any problems. I mainly use it to generate URLs that make it easier to upload and view images on my site, making visual content accessible to visitors. Cloudinary's complete platform is very good and, even though I don't use all the tools, I believe it helps various companies improve their performance. The product is so effective that I would rate it a 10 in terms of likelihood to recommend it to a friend or colleague.

Effortless Image Optimization with Some AI Hiccups
What do you like best about the product?
I absolutely love the ease with which I can handle image transformations using Cloudinary. The ability to encapsulate all my transformations into a single link is incredibly convenient and simplifies my workflow significantly. Rather than having to combine transformations into a complex script, Cloudinary allows me to streamline this process, saving both time and effort. The image optimization feature is another standout, as it enhances the sharpness of images and adds missing details, resulting in high-quality output effortlessly. Additionally, the initial setup of Cloudinary was very easy, which made the transition from our previous internal tool seamless and reduced the time we previously spent on support. I highly recommend Cloudinary because of the significant enhancements it brings to image management tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
The output is sometimes blurred for no reason. The AI-based filters are not great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Cloudinary for image optimization, enhancing sharpness and adding missing details. It simplifies processes by consolidating transformations into one link, avoiding complex scripts. The switch from a custom tool reduced support time, and setup was easy.
Seamless Image Integration with Cloudinary Connector
What do you like best about the product?
I love that the images connect seamlessly to our design files using the Cloudinary Connector.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my opinion, sharing Collections would be more convenient if there were an option to create subfolders. This would allow us to organize collections by brand, which would be especially helpful in our situation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The Cloudinary Connector for Adobe has been incredibly useful in linking our design files with our assets. It streamlines the process and makes managing our resources much easier.

Robust DAM Solution with Excellent Support
What do you like best about the product?
I have immense appreciation for Cloudinary's outstanding customer service. They are highly supportive, especially when navigating the complexities of the Media Library APIs and when it comes to the custom migration tools we've developed. The support team consistently explains issues clearly and assists in resolving them effectively. In addition, the search functionality within the media library is exceptionally robust, which makes querying or searching visually very efficient and beneficial. I particularly value the ability to optimize assets for delivery in a way that maintains user experience excellence while controlling bandwidth usage; this capability has truly been a game-changer for our operations. Furthermore, the straightforward initial setup ensures a seamless integration process, which has been beneficial for us and our clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the lack of a built-in solution for asset request management inconvenient, as it requires going through Portals. Additionally, the user roles aren't as flexible as I'd like. It would be helpful to have roles that allow users to view and download assets without counting against the user quota. Another issue is with subaccount permissions; individual subaccounts should have their own permissions for viewing and adding items. This limitation extends to analytics, as subaccount features are often tied to the main account, which is not practical for us when different clients have their own subaccounts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cloudinary optimizes asset delivery and provides a robust DAM solution, allowing clients to manage their own assets independently which enhances user experience without increasing bandwidth load.
Cloudinary Makes Media Management Effortless and Boosts ROI
What do you like best about the product?
Cloudinary is not just a CDN, but the de facto standard platform for images and video on the web. It is easy to use for developers, marketers and creatives and has dramatically reduced complications with delivering the right media to the right device at the right time. As a small business, media management will never be a profit center for us, so ease of implementation and integration are key for us and Cloudinary delivers. Additionally, new features and functionality only serve to increase our ROI as our adoption continues. The value for our teams and our business is undeniable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cost and sticker shock is definitely a concern, but overall value outweighs cost completely for us. A portion of the AI features are not relevant to our business. Mass update of image paths is not a trivial, so initial setup is critical. Stock Wordpress integration leaves something to be desired.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cloudinary's digital asset management, optimization and on-the-fly delivery replaces expensive home grown projects to perform these tasks. Additionally replaces limited onprem media asset management solution. Replaces manual image manipulation and scales extremely well without requiring additional resources.
Powerful, User-Friendly Asset Management
What do you like best about the product?
Cloudinary offers dynamic image manipulation and a robust API, supported by comprehensive public documentation. Its user-friendly interface makes it accessible to everyone in the company, and it serves as a single source of truth for all digital assets. I also appreciate Cloudinary’s commitment to keeping up with the evolving technology landscape.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wouldn't say I dislike it, but I do wish it were more affordable for us, given that the base product includes plenty of features that are certainly valuable but that I haven't gotten to take advantage of due to my specific business needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to integrate it seamlessly with our own platforms through the API, and by taking advantage of its dynamic image manipulation features, we can deliver the most efficient image format and size for each specific placement and device. Additionally, this allows us to reduce the production time required from our design team, enabling them to focus more on creativity rather than on localisation tasks.
Essential Image Management with Powerful Tools, Awaiting API Improvements
What do you like best about the product?
We store millions of images in Cloudinary, and it plays a crucial role in moderating and optimizing these images for display across all our applications. The optimizations ensure that our users enjoy the experience they expect, while the management tools empower our internal teams to make modifications whenever necessary.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the newer APIs still require further development to achieve full feature parity, but we are actively collaborating with the team to ensure these areas are prioritized.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The most significant benefit for us has been the rapid retrieval and optimization of images across various platforms. We are eager to start using the MediaFlows features for moderation and to further enhance our images.
