Saves you a lo of time

  • January 15, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Its very easy to use, almost in a manner of plug and play and you get all of your image related problems solved.
What do you dislike about the product?
The dashboard is confusing, charging and payment isn't clear so you can't predict how much you'll use or have used.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Resizing images on the fly and offloading images to be loaded via gumlet's CDN.

It is blazingly fast.

What do you like best about the product?
Simple setup, excellent support team, and great documentation. Easy setup with wordpress and Digital Ocean Spaces

Sometimes I don't know how to set up lazy loading, but the support team is at hand to help and resolve everything.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Gumlet for image optimization and as a CDN for my javascript files. My January stats speak for themself:

Gumlet makes image optimization easy and affordable

  • January 14, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The thing I like best about Gumlet is the ease of which it can be deployed and used on a WordPress website. Simply answer a few questions on the Gumlet dashboard, install the Gumlet plugin for WordPress, and set your level of compression - boom, you're all done!
What do you dislike about the product?
While Gumlet is great at optimizing images and is easy to use, it sometimes has a hiccup when running Google PageSpeed Insights, as it reports that images are not properly sized (a feature which Gumlet is supposed to take care of).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving the problems of image compression and delivery on a WordPress website.

What do you like best about the product?
Gumlet was super easy to install and active on my website. Their website allowed me to access my accounts and different websites quickly and easily. I am able to keep each website stored separately using their website dashboard.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the more advanced features were above my skill level and I was not able to implement them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Lazy loading of images and CDN delivery

The best CDN I've ever used!

  • January 14, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Gumlet CDN for the last few months now and I can't find another CDN provider which such a good pricing, speed, and stability. They have great and fast support that resolves any possible issues and / or errors, and I had no problems whatsoever with connecting it to my WP sites and my client's sites. Value for money!
What do you dislike about the product?
I would prefer if their client's Dashboard had a more modern design, like the one they're using in their homepage, which looks pretty amazing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem for me was always the speed. Google loves speedy websites, and Gumlet solves that problem by serving all the images from their fast servers and also supports Webp and AVIF image formats, which is lovely.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It only takes a minute to setup and you don't need to put www. in your url even if you have it. Just leave it with https:// or http:// and you're fine (personal experience).

Optimisation that will get your site ranking higher in Google and Client seeing more conversions!

  • January 14, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Gumlet allows me to squeeze maximum performance out of all my sites. Something Google now sees a ranking factor with Core vitals. The ability to offer perfectly resized images device agnostic is a killer feature and saves my clients users time and money. Gumlets simple UI interface and Wordpress plugin make it so simple to implement even for non coders or agency owners.
What do you dislike about the product?
In the past I had a few issues with backgrounds images using Elementor but then soon fixed it. There dev team are awesome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gumlet is able to solve the issue of loading up image in blazing fast times and optimised for the device screen. There are other solutions I have tried but Gumlet always delivers. They are constantly improving the features they offer and it's great to see a strong roadmap.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't waste time on other products Gumlet is number one when it comes to speed, price and support

Great system to speed serving images and increase seo benefits

  • January 14, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Gumlet is easy to use and integrate into a website. We used both Wordpress and a custom full stack server and it worked well and integration was straightforward. Not all services are like this and we were impressed with the installation plus the quick support on a few items when needed help. Was also impressed with the image optimization, scrunching the image sizes down to speed up the visitor viewing experience and the reasonable cost of the service.
What do you dislike about the product?
There were two small issues we ran into and one was with special characters in an image file name. Our image names are auto generated and sometimes contain characters that are allowed in a file name, but not allowed in Gumlet and breaks the image. This isn't a big issue, but annoying if you can't control what characters are being used in your filename. The second was with speed. Some of our images served through Gumlet were dragging and didn't know why. We contacted support and they adjusted some settings on their end and within a day they were loading normally. Not sure why these issues came up, but both were resolved to our satisfaction although wish they were not issues to begin with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were creating a site that required to serve lots of images on a single page listing and lots of thumbnails throughout the site in addition to a potential of lots of listings on the site. Serving these from our server was slow and quickly slowed the site down. Using Gumlet and integrating through their API to automatically serve these full sized images and thumbnails saved us tons in bandwidth, but more importantly giving our visitors a great experience in viewing pages and images on our site super fast.

Excellent way to increase website loading times

What do you like best about the product?
all you have to do is turn it on and it starts working straight away
What do you dislike about the product?
sometime have a problem with webp images
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are a model agency and our websites are very image heavy. With gumlet we can just upload all the images without worrying about size or format. Gumlet will optimise them and auto convert them so everything on the site works properly and loads quickly.

Great value and easy set up

  • January 14, 2021
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the fact that it doesn't have a ton of bells and whistles. What it does, it does well and offers a simple set up without needed a ton of technical knowledge beforehand. I can trust my clients to set it up themselves without them having to ask for help from me or getting confused.

I also like how responsive their support team is. In the beginning when I first started using Gumlet I had a few small issues with their Wordpress Plugin. They quickly looked into the situation, gave me suggestions on how to solve the issue, then when that didn't work created a new rollout of the plugin to solve it for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally the support takes a little longer than anticipated to answer back, but I'm assuming this is because of time zone differences.

Also, at times the documentation isn't the most detailed especially around set up with various speed optimization plugins on Wordpress.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been able to easily solve website speed problems and not having to continue looking for an easy, cost-effective, and reliable CDN for images, JS, and css files. I've seen my site speeds continually increase and I'm happy with the fact that they are always rolling out nee features.
I've also been able to optimize my image sizes considerably. No more slow loading speeds because of photos that are too large or are slowing down my severs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would take the opportunity to give it a try. The worst that can happen is you don't like it and try a different solution. Or you find the perfect CDN option out there with Gumlet. Their support, ease of use, simple setup, and robust features should be enough of an incentive.
