DepositPhotos Reviews 

I enjoy using deposit photos to find my picture needs for various things. I like that they have the feature to exclude AI content. To further help with that I wish we could filter the dates by year. I would love to search for photos prior to 2020 sometimes.

I bought photos on a subscription plan and followed all the license rules. Nevertheless, the author of several photos contacted me and filed a claim over my use of their images, and now I have to cover legal expenses. I provided the author with all the licenses I downloaded from Depositphotos, but that didn’t satisfy them and they still took the case to court. In Depositphotos’ contributor agreement it says that all issues should be resolved through Depositphotos, but in reality, who actually makes them follow this?

I also contacted the company’s support several times: first via chat and email, then directly through their support address. So it’s simply impossible that my request just got “lost.” I asked them to contact the author to clarify the situation from their side, and I described everything in detail — that I had purchased the licenses, used the images legally, and provided the licenses to the author. And do you know what they replied? Almost word for word: “Please provide the licenses to the author.” And that was IT.

I wrote again that I had already sent everything, and since then they have just been ignoring me.

So if you decide to use this service, be aware that in any conflict with authors you are effectively not protected, and in my experience Depositphotos is selling you an empty promise, without actually standing behind its obligations.

At this point, my lawyer and I are preparing a claim against Depositphotos, because I have fully and in good faith complied with all the terms of the agreements and licenses.

DepositPhotos is my go-to for stock photos. I use stock images every day in my marketing and DepositPhotos is the place I go back to over and over for them. Their range of images is excellent; their use certificates (easily downloaded) have saved me twice in disputes with platforms about using copyrighted images. The filters are very useful. I particularly appreciate the "redownload" feature because I lost my trove of stock photos when I switched computers and it gave me great peace of mind to know I could redownload the images when I needed them. I wish that the "same model" feature was better, but I appreciate that's probably down to individual artists not identifying the model rather than the platform.

Super easy to work with, great one on one customer services.

Absolute Garbage. I recently purchased an unlimited plan - the plan is anything but; a lot of images on the site still say "Extra plan required" and then there's all the reCaptchas - I'm getting hit with a reCaptcha on Every. Single. Asset. I try to download, and after a while, even when I get the Captcha's right, it makes me restart. (And I'm signed in with Google and NO VPN - nothing that would trigger Captchas). Waited another 24 hours, STILL getting reCaptchas on EVERY SINGLE ASSET download. Customer service is no help at all, when you finally get through to a real live person, they parrot copy-paste answers at you so it feels like you're talking to an AI chatbot.

A GOOD RANGE OF PHOTOS BUT NOT ENOUGH FREE. THE PRICE TO PURCHASE IS USUALLY NOT TOO EXPENSIVE, BUT COULD BE CHEAPER. NOT AS GOOD FOR QUALITY AS SOME OTHERS BUT NOT AS EXPENSIVE.

I had an experience regarding the DepositPhotos auto-renew policy that left me frustrated and furious. The Chatbot had no answers, so I sent my info to the response team and heard nothing back for several hours.

The next day, I received lengthy, detailed responses from real human beings who gave me several good options and signed their names and asked me if any of those options would satisfy me.

I said, "Yes. Thank you very much for taking the time to help me accomplish what I was trying to do."

It took a whole day for them to figure out how to help me get where I was trying to go, but I do need to tell you that I did explain (in detail, in my complaint) what I needed that was different than what I had originally committed to do.

Details matter. The thing that I now see that I did right was that I gave them a clear understanding of how my needs had changed. This was all that they needed to help me get exactly what I wanted.

I was more furious that you can possibly imagine, but I went ahead and included information that I felt they deserved to know.

If you're having a problem with DepositPhotos, this is how you fix it.

I dealt with Olha and with Daniela and both of them were delightful.

Superior experience, professional team, excellent quality.

The DepositPhotos product and service is excellent. Best choice I made years ago and still appreciate the platform and safeguard of my photos, as well as the pricing.

We are a company specializing in organized tours abroad, and I believe we have been working together for more than 12 years already.

I work with Martina Figova, who provides excellent service - everything is always clear, professional, and fast. Highly recommended.

I am very satisfied with the personal, professional, and caring approach

double charged. same pic didnt download correctly, downloaded ahsin... SAME FILE. PRICING ALSO RIDICULOUS, woul not recommend

Terrible stock resource. It withholds and doesn't pay authors their earnings.

Belarus has no connection to rusia or military action. The sanctions against russia do not apply to Belarusians. We regret this. And it's very disappointing that there's such a biased attitude toward Belarusians.

I have been buying images from Depositphotos for the BLOG of my company Alkivita d.o.o. and for my personal blog, with a Business License, for the 7th year.
I am very grateful for the professional approach of Mrs. Martina Figova from Depositphotos, who helped me with valuable answers and encouragement, so that I will go through the challenges with Copytrack with less effort.
For the last couple of years, they have been harassing me 2-3 times a year with a request to submit a license, with a letter as if they represent the copyright holder. In reality, the real and sole author is hearing about them for the first time.
This was a really heavy burden for me, because they also harassed me in mid-August when I was on vacation, and Mrs. Martina Figova's understanding and quick-response support means a lot to me. So from now on, I will no longer deal with unjustified Copytrack requests.
She also explained to me the complete protection that Depositphotos generously offers its clients in difficult times, so that I feel truly safe and reassured.
When I renewed my Business License, Ms. Martina Figova immediately understood and helped me by making sure the annual invoice accurately stated the period. Thank you again, it's a pleasure to work with Depositphotos and Ms. Martina Figova!

I have used DepositPhotos for years as a resource for licensed images to protect my digital marketing clients' website content. I also use them for social media posting to share original content.

My experience with DepositPhotos has been a very rewarding one I would say.
I came into contact with them while searching for a solution towards acquiring images foruse on my blog articles and foundthem to be very handy and easy to use.
They have a very affordablle subscription plan as well.
While admittedly I have also used other platforms for images, I return to depositphotos again and again as I absolutely love their choices of photo options and their pricing.

Thank you DepositPhotos.

it is a good website for finding good photos

I like to take pictures so I rate this company

Very few non-stock photos I looked for. This is the only reason of the grade of 3 - I have no remarks to the site itself.
