    Final Review

    I absolutely enjoy the Envato Elements service. Although I’m not a designer, their huge collection of multimedia and files makes it easy for me to create projects for my websites and clients. All the items are carefully designed and produced and this is why Envato hires only the best creatives.

    Envato is my go-to place for landing page elements, graphics, icons, and multimedia. High-quality, support, community, blog, forum, education. All under one roof.

    The subscription plan is extremely affordable and with only $29 or $19 per month, you have access to the entire library, instead of paying separately for graphics, themes, and plugins. There are graphics that sell for $29 or $39 alone, there are themes that cost $49 or more, why paying for them separately?

    It’s an ideal marketplace for designers, freelancers, and companies that need multimedia on an ongoing basis.

    Envato offers an opportunity for authors and creatives to sell their products and share their revenue while being exposed to a huge audience.

    And it’s a company that constantly evolves…They always add new departments to the subscription-based model. I believe their future is bright

    All in all, a very competitive subscription that you should check right now!

      4 years and not a problem. I call BS!

      I have had a lot of benefits from Envato elements but the lack of support from site themes, missing files, and filtering problems makes me think you have barely even used anything from the site.

      I have asked for feature requests and committed bugs of which nothing has been done for years. They are pretty useless in terms of support and development.

      I’ve been using it since it’s inception. The only nice new addition are the 20m stock photos. But the lack of support for anything web related means most of the templates are pretty useless, in terms of production time, requiring lots of fiddling and many frustrating nights.

      However, EE is very beneficial compared to any other platform in terms of cost. For everything you get, it does make it worth it despite my above gripes.

        Hi Henry

        Thanks for letting me know about your experience. However, I’ve never had any problem with their files and I’ve used many of them. There was nothing missing. Also, I never had to request support so I really can’t tell how good they are at providing support. I only judged their artwork which I find high-quality, enough for my needs and the subscription’s price.

        Good luck with your projects!

      It might be true that there are many assets that are outdated, but there are also some new assets, for example the Instagram Stories templates. It depends in what are you looking for, but Envato Elements it is way better than spending money on each template sold in Envato Market, that’s my opinion. I’m happy with Envato Elements.

        Thanks Carlos for sharing your experience with Envato. I watch this company closely for the last years and I think they do provide new assets very frequently. Also, I prefer Elements over the Market as well for the reason you mentioned.

        All the best

      At least give an honest review. Elements is just the garbage that gets reported from their main marketplace or old outdated stuff that doesn’t sell anymore. Just using logic, try to think about why a company would give away so many graphics at such a low price. Package files always seem to be incomplete and file formats are almost always missing. If you find a graphic you like, don’t expect to have an .AI version as that’s almost unheard of on Elements. It ends up wasting more time than it saves.

        The fact that you don’t like a company does not mean my review is not honest. My review as all WMS reviews is honest and is based on my personal experience with Envato for the last 3 years. I did not receive anything incomplete nor I found any files missing from their artwork.

        Just because someone has a different opinion that does not make your opinion stronger.

        I really like the idea of paying 14.50EUR/month to have access to 840K files. I am sure there are others who enjoy this offer as much as I do. You just sound like an Envato competitor.

        Anyway, thanks for stopping by, all the best!

    TOP Quote - Read Slowly

    To attract better you need to become better. To become better you need to understand what’s making you, you. Your subconscious mind controls 90~95% of your life. Other people aren’t luckier than you. They simply have different subconscious programming that generates a different reality for them. Get curious about the programming that causes you to experience life the way you do. Be patient as you heal, unlearn, and relearn in alignment with your highest potential. You got this.

    The same is true in entrepreneurship 🙂
