  • March 19, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Gimp has countless options to create all types of designs, its interface is very similar to other software, what I like is that it is very light and has the possibility of downloading add-ons.
What do you dislike about the product?
At first it took me a little while to adapt to their functions since, although they are powerful tools, their use is a little difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Gimp we have been able to make our work easier and lower cost, since we do not need such powerful equipment to be able to create quality designs.

Best open source photo editing tool

  • March 10, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The favourite part of gimp is that it is free to use and light weight other than any product available in the market. It works on light machines seemlessly which makes it exceptional. The best thing is that gimp support almost all formats which I edit on.
What do you dislike about the product?
It sometimes have technical issues like multilayer selection and and transformations which used to be issue before but recent update has fixed it. The user interface is not very friendly like other alternatives but seemingly does the job. Other than that it is well developed app
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me to solve the problems without having to take subscriptions also it is best to manage ui ux assets creations which is very handy and efficient. Being light weight I don't have to worry occupying more ram which side by side multitasking is easier.

If I have to pick something, it's that the icons are small and sometimes hard to see which one I want when I'm working on a larger project.

Gimp makes it easy to merge two images, or to edit photos I need for presentations.

GIMP - A free alternative to the industry grade expensive softwares

  • February 03, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
GIMP follows the layer system for editing of images and manipulation of layers efficiently. It is a promising software that has a possibility to reach a wider audience of creative people.

The User Interface and the tools are quite overwhelming on the basis of how they are arranged and displayed. For first time user when one opens GIMP, it looks quite confusing

It provides a free and open source alternative to edit photos and deliver it to clients whereas certain softwares are quite expensive

A good free alternative, but I prefer paid alternatives.

  • January 17, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The thing I like best about GIMP is that it is free. I found the interface and the ease of using certain tools is not as intuitive as Photoshop, Luminar or Affinity. It is probably the best option that is Open Source and Free. It has a large amount of features for an open source option, but using them is not as easy as paid options. It could just be me.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it more confusing that other items. I find it less intuitive, I find that there is a lot that a program like Affinity, Photoshop or Luminar do for me that I actually have to do for myself and have to know how to do. The paid options let me pretend to be a graphic designer and digital creative.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
GIMP can be a powerful digital creativity tool if you really want to learn to use the tool to its highest capability. There are a few things I do with softwares like this and my workflow is pretty Adobe specific. Interfaces like Affinity and Luminar copy Adobe pretty comparably so it's easier for me to use them. Everything is there, but in different places and it all work s a little differently where the other tools make up for your mistakes, where there's less margin for error in GIMP. Overall it is good, but I find it confusing and prefer to pay for ease of use.

What do you like best about the product?
Free software like GIMP is one of the wonderful things about the high tech world in which we live.

The latter is free. THank you GIMP

The online help features are not so great.

Very powerful editing and image manipulation
