Overall Satisfaction with GIMP

I primarily use GIMP for editing staff identification photos. It makes the process super easy, the service is free and continues to stay current with the latest updates. I have found this program to be much easier to use than other platforms and appreciate its simplistic format.
  • Lasso tool is great for getting a nice clean cut around the edges
  • Easy removal of backgrounds
  • Layering - simplified.
  • If you have never used a photo editing software it can be a little overwhelming with so many buttons and not always clear on their function.
  • Being able to utilize a free product that works as well as a paid subscription has definitely been a positive ROI. (Adobe PhotoShop Elements for instance is $30 per month)
Very similar feature with the greatest difference really being paid vs. free platform. This is important to note especially for larger organizations.

Do you think GIMP delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with GIMP's feature set?

Yes

Did GIMP live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of GIMP go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy GIMP again?

Yes

This software is very similar in fashion to Adobe PhotoShop and can be used in many of the same ways. I have yet to use all of the features myself but continue to find new ways to use it. I particularly like the ease of removing backgrounds from photos for ID badges.
