123RF.com vs. Pexels

The success of social media campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter depends significantly on the quality of the content used. Pexels maintains the highest quality standards for all content hosted on the platform... with High Definition, excellent composition materials only. Another great thing is that they provide you with an assortment of filtered content suggestions related to the selections. This helps save time.

• High-resolution images – Pexels is full of images that are high enough in resolution to look beautiful on their own, but also high quality enough to be combined with other images without distracting pixelization
• Stock videos – other free stock sites are often limited to just images, but Pexels has a wide range of videos available as well, which we use to plus up decks
• Good search functions – while not as robust as some paid sites, Pexels' search functions make it pretty easy to track down what you need
• Licensing – it's very straightforward to know what you can and can't do with a Pexels photo, which protects my company and our clients

• I do think that the library should grow. For example, I was looking for an image of a living room with a fireplace and there were only a few options
• I get tricked sometimes because I see images I want to use but they are from some other company and they are paid
• Improve search understanding for multi-word searches

Pexels has a few unique features that stand out, the most important being a 1-click download from the search results. No need to navigate to another page to find a "download" button. This reduces the time required to find and download an appropriate image. The search results load fast, with lazy loading, so there's no annoying pagination at the bottom. I often travel as I work, and at times my internet connection can be slow or unstable. This kind of feature may seem minor to some users, but when on a slower connection, it makes a big difference. If a search term is too broad, it can recommend related keywords to search for - this helps to find the right image faster.
