## Reviews

### "icons8 delivers outstanding results with its photo-editing capabilities at no compromise in quality." — 5.0/5

> **Mohammad** | *20 January 2023* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I'm genuinely impressed by the simplicity \&amp; capability of designing \&amp; editing photos via icons8. I often capture \&amp; receive photos of certain areas at the construction site that appear pixelated or blurry which makes it challenging to identify the highlighted issue. icons8 resolves the matter with its fast-processing image upscaling by masterfully sharpening my photos \&amp; the results look incredible. Having also subscribed to the full set, I'm able to create eye-catching presentations with the plethora of stock photos, icons \&amp; vectors found in the suite of utilities found within the service. Moreover, the background-remover feature works quite well \&amp; the subject looks naturally isolated rather than being poorly-trimmed from its background. Furthermore, searching for icons based on uploaded photos brilliantly recognizes \&amp; generates a whole list of icons that are well suited for clipart use for adding more details into our pamphlet printouts \&amp; presentations. I've tried uploading a photo of a ready-mix truck parked inside the construction site \&amp; I received plenty of icons resembling the truck which is quite amazing.
> 
> **Cons**: I have absolutely no complaints with the service. It's just fantastic.
> 
> icons8 exhibits one of the most robust image tinkering capabilities in a web application suite. From photo upscaling \&amp; background removal to provisioned search-by-image results that yield splendid icon sets \&amp; much, much more, icon88 left me in awe \&amp; joy with its abundant features that catalysed my personal \&amp; productivity workload.

### "The best alternative for Sketch and it's convenient." — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *6 June 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Icons8 introduced the revolutionary design software named Lunacy. The lunacy is a great alternative to Sketch. It has an intuitive user interface and It is a good choice to design a mobile app or website template using lunacy. It is not necessary to be an expert in the subject to get an impressive result and it supports Sketch or Figma file format.
> 
> **Cons**: The a low amount of illustrations in each style. Missing the advanced prototyping feature. Hope for a superb solution in the future.
> 
> Overall I love this product for the wide range of options to design something. Lunacy is a brilliant alternative to Sketch and it's free to everyone. It has a great choice of consistent, pixel-perfect icons that meet all of my design needs. In contrast to Sketch, Figma, or Adobe XD it's a lightweight and convenient user experience.&#10;I will recommend trying this product to get an unforgettable experience.

### "Icons8 is stealing from me" — 1.0/5

> **Brian** | *12 October 2021* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Good variety of icons, recently added illustrations and more.
> 
> **Cons**: Terrible customer service that has continued to charge my account even though it's been cancelled for several months. They have refused to reply to any of my messages via email, live chat or their community board. I have no way of logging into my account to contact them either because it has been deleted. I'm being robbed every month for no service.
> 
> Every month they charge me, I hate them more and more. The amount of times I've tried to reach out and have been stonewalled is insane. I am now resorting to leaving reviews so they can finally reach out and get to the bottom of this, but I doubt they will do anything.

### ""The best free alternative to Adobe XD (for Linux)."" — 5.0/5

> **Md Fateh Ali** | *26 May 2022* | Design | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: If you are looking for the best cross-platform design software? The answer is yes, lunacy is a brilliant solution for that. There are some exclusive features like icons-library, avatars, placeholders, and more. It's fast \&amp; stable, and not a resource hunger like other software. It runs any operating system like Windows, Linux, or macOS.
> 
> **Cons**: Advanced prototyping is the biggest missed feature. I hope lunacy takes this issue seriously and fixes it soon.
> 
> It's convenient to work daily basis. The UI of lunacy looks simple, minimalist, and responsive. They are very keen to ask for suggestions from their user and try to implement these in every new version.

### "One of the best software for design and it's free." — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *4 June 2022* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Lunacy is one of the great design software that I have ever used. This application has a clean and minimal interface. It is a brilliant application for creating and editing vectors, and printing design. It has a plenty cool feature like icon library and avatars. Lunacy is great at creating mockups and template.
> 
> **Cons**: Lunacy has some cons like missing advanced prototyping and the constant logging out of the account can get annoying.
> 
> Lunacy is a great design software, and it's free for everyone. I have found it a very simple and feature-centric tool. It's the best alternative to Adobe XD, Figma, and Sketch. It's a tiny file, and it's not a resource hunter. I have a pleasant experience in using lunacy and recommend it to others.
