Very easy to integrate with AWS S3

What do you like best about the product?
Gumlet is an easy to use and easy to setup tool to deliver optimized images. The feature I like most is the ability to modify images on the fly, e.g. resize and crop to create consistent thumbnails.
What do you dislike about the product?
The maximum width and height for images are 8192px. Would great if they'd also support occasional images that are larger.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Optimize loading speed for visitors, more control on image display for ourselves.

One of the best image optimisation (and delivery) tool

  • January 19, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I choose between Short pixel and Gumlet. They are both excellent apps. I like Gumlet because it's easy to set up it and because of its first-rate and fast CDN. Gumlet optimize the images on your site so they fit for any screen.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing. I don't know how to do it better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gumlet speed up my site
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a no-brainer decision. If you don't have an image optimisation and delivery tool, buy it and use it.

Sometimes with SVGs the images seem not to resize properly.

Hosting images from a CDN helps with page speed and load time. Also loading images in WebP format.

Excellent Image CDN that Noticably Speeds Up my HUGE Image-Heavy Website

  • January 18, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I like Most about using Gumlet are the results. I run an Image Heavy Website on Shared Web Hosting & Gumlet makes a Dramatic Improvement in my Website Performance & Load Speed. Images make up 75%-80% of my page content and Gumlet helps by reducing my homepage size from 11MB down to 7.5MB! This leads to cutting my load speed in half from 25 seconds, down to 13 seconds. We should be moving to a MUCH faster webserver next month before opening to the public, so we are looking forward to Gumlet to continue helping us out & making a difference in loading all of our 120 Image specific requests - per page load :)
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not a lot to dislike in Gumlet as once you hare finished the initial configuration, there is hardly any more interaction with the software required. Truly plug & play. Other than disabling / enabling it to run performance tests on Pingdom & GTmetrix there is not much else to do after you have finished the initial setup. If there is anything that I dislike it is that Gumlet "takes over" your Lazy Loading capability. To run Gumlet at all, you have to disable other Lazy Load software so that Gumlet can be in control of that department. I would have prefered the option of being able to test & tune the Lazy Load capability of different plugins & using the one that works best - instead of being "forced" into using the Gumlet version. Not a big deal over all, as the results speak for themselves. Our website is so image heavy that GTMetrix errors-out without even completing the scan when Gumlet is deactivated...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gumlet is actually making THE difference in moving from Development, into Testing and Tuning, soon to be open to the Public in 2 weeks. Without Gumlet it takes Pingdom 30 seconds to load our homepage, even worse for real users on normal bandwidth or smart phone data plans. Having Gumlet makes it possible for us to move forward towards our business goal of opening to the public after YEARS of full-time development on a shared hosting plan. Without Gumlet, we the developers, don't have the patience for our webpages to load - much less ask random visitors to spend 30+ seconds waiting for things to appear. Gumlet cuts our Page Load Times in Half, just by installing & configuring it once. Now all we need is to move to better hosting & we should be crossing that bridge in 12 days!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get It. It already makes a big Difference for us & we can plainly see that they are working hard at improvement & making their product better!

CDN, Support and Fast image Loading speed

  • January 15, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The website Speed increased tremendously. The Gumlet compressed and hosted the images on CDN. This helped us achieve great score on Google page speed insights.

Since Page speed is an important signal for ranking. Gumlet helped us a lot in achieving good score.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can improve in case of an e-commerce website. Since, image is the main element in any ecommerce and it plays an important role in sales and abandonment. Gumlet compresses the image, and sometimes I feel that the product image is not working out. If a customer/site visitor wants to look closely at the product image, gumlet compressed images are unsatisfactory.

Customers on Our apparel website pay close attention to design and Gumlet disappointed us on this point.
Especially on the mobile view, since screen is already small details should come out crisply.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Latest image formats: Pagespeed by Google always recommends to switch to the latest image formats and it's hard for a big website to quickly switch to latest formats overnight. Gumlet helps to use the wordpress images as source and compress the images to the latest format. This helps a lot!

Other than this the website speed is most important in terms of user experience. and Since Gumlet comes with CDN, we are saving lots of bucks and hassle.

Image Performance Optimization for Wordpress and Beyond!

  • January 15, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I really love about Gumlet is that their infrastructure is by far the best and fastest I tested for images performance optimization in terms of how it is delivered on my websites. The centralized dashboard for managing every website that I have, whether Wordpress or non-Wordpress is very easy to use. There are a ton of use cases for this kind of service and truly, Gumlet stands out from its competition!
What do you dislike about the product?
What is missing in Gumlet is the video optimization. It would have been a SUPER platform for image and video delivery performance optimization!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Websites need to be fast so customers won't go away fast! On my websites, there is a ton of images that I need to optimize so with Gumlet, with its simple and effective way of managing image loading in different parts of the world, I can ensure that my websites are loading as fast as they can be.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For website owners or agencies designing or developing websites, make sure your images are fully optimized and loads fast. Make sure you get Gumlet!

Image CDN.
