Go Open Source! It's a lot easier to run a media start-up.
Being community driven alone makes this product feel so much better. And it has come a long since we first tried it a few years ago. GIMP has evolved as we've learned our way around it. Looking forward to a future with greater updates to the UI and workflow.
PROSThe fact that it can almost do everything that Photoshop can do and for no charge at all - this helped us a ton. We did not have to pay a monthly subscription that over multiple users, adds up to quite a fee. Adding functionality that isn't otherwise provided is easy thanks to a large collection of assorted extensions.
CONSFor all the features it provides, one very important feature is missing. The ability to edit and render CMYK images, without having to run through a few hoops. Since most of our work is for online use, we do not see it as a limitation. But for someone looking at print media work alone, they might have to wait a few months before the official release has this functionality baked in.

Monthly subscription model did not work for us.

Remarkable easy to use photo editing software for beginners
Overall gimp is nice to have software for designers but its a life savour for deveopers who needs lots of images to add on websites. Its best for linux system and really helpful for developers and beginners.
PROSEven if it lacks features, I loved that I can import photoshop plugins in gimp and extends its capability. Ultimately it reolace photoshop on Linux system for high end photo editing work. Also its really easy to learn the software even if you don't have any design background.
CONSFor large file size system gets freezed or slowed down. Needs restarting several times resulting frustration. Their online version needs lots of improvements like uploading and exporting multiple formats.

Canva is a freemium online tool that requires premium subscription to export high quality files. Gimp is free to use editing tool and hence made mw switch to this.

An Honest Review of Gi,p
Image editing software like GIMP is used for social media, advertising, postcards, flyers, and other commonplace items. The platform takes care of the requirement for brand coherence across both analog and digital channels. GIMP also offers straightforward capabilities for picture stacking when creating a complex brand portfolio or a brochure.Costs and BenefitsYou can manipulate any kind of image with GIMP's many available tools, and you can export your work in any required format.Everything about GIMP is really easy, so even a novice user can quickly layer photos or make one transparent.Sometimes it takes a bit for GIMP to load, especially when new font types are being downloaded.
PROSGimp can help you make occasional modifications to your graphics without the cost of more expensive software.
CONSGimp is not a very basic program. A steep learning curve, crashing and freezing, and reliability can become frustrating.
