ArtgridReviews of artgrid.io

As a designer for a small company, saw this ad on a video and thought it would be another great free stock photo site like Pexels, however these images are NOT free at all. It functions almost exactly like Alamy: you have to pay for everything. Which I'm fine with as a rule, people have every right to charge for their images. But it's deceiving to advertise a site as free when it isn't. There are other sites out there with amazing stock images that are actually free (no cost & no attribution req), so I encourage people to look into those instead. Only gave 2 stars cuz the images are very nice quality. Could be good for much larger companies who have the money to spend.

Fake landing telling me that everything is free while it's not.

Ad was super cool. They claimed it was free however that is incorrect. I made an account and tried to download a cool photo that didn't download. Sad

Cancellation is very hard. Bad service

First, they claim to have a trial period ad you start downloading videos like you would at any site, except these "artgrid.io" files cannot be located at first. When you fid the location they appear to be hidden. You go back to the Artgrid site to find out what's going on and there are no instructions. The only thing you have are three are three purchasing options. So you go to your browser and when you enter artrid there is a subcategory for a "free trial". If you are a student or just begging that's the option you want, but they lie because the only thing you get are those ridiculous "artgrid.io" files that you can't locate and then appear at times when you don't need them. I was working on a paper for my class and one of those files embedded itself into my Word document. I thought I deleted it, but when I started printing my document, the artgrid.10 files appeared in the middle of every page! I have just one night to finish my paper and had no idea what to do. Now, try reaching someone at Artgrid. Impossible. It's like no human works there, although I'm sure someone is collecting the money. They are untouchable. PROS: Great artists! Fabulous Work! Nice format! Superior idea! Outstanding advertising! CONS: No Access to People or a Working Product. False advertising. Beware of malware and downloads that destroy your files. Security that will bring your system down and treats consumers like criminals. Bogus trial period. Deception.

We tried them for one year. They lack of transparency in their billing method as they bill you . Their Menu options are limited and not clear. You subscribe for one year only, then the next year they charge you without advising you. Where did the second year license pop from when there is no option in the original menu to do so ! a One year subscription that was paid should not be renewed without asking the client. As a client I lost trust ! The original license is for one year and it seems to renew itself without advising you. This is not the way you conduct good business with your clients. Their Account Menu is not clear. It is not a nice experience to be charged. Those auto-renew that pop between the seller and PayPal is the biggest "scam" and none sent a reminder either even though our subscription was clear for only ONE YEAR. Lost all trust with artist Ltd and PayPal.

Don't make a subscription because it is not possible to quit or cancel subscription. They say you have to quite it some how over paypal it is how ever not possible too and there is also no adress where you can send a post to quite after one year. I'm struggling for days to quit account.

They are trying to trick people to sign up for a year. I spent countless hours looking for a track, just to realise there is only one option! A one year subscription.. This is very inconvienent for the customer and makes no sense from a business point of view..
