GBGreat potential, needs some fleshing out The acquisition aspects of filepicker are great, and my team is happy about the speed with which I was able to allow our users to incorporate Instagram and their ilk. However, I've had slow response from service, often taking several days to get a response since it had to go to the engineers (seems there's a breakdown in that process). The file service and conversions functions are still too limited. I don't mind having to securely sign my API calls, but having to sign query string file conversions is... odd. Cloudinary got around it with their preset system, and better permission management. As is, I'll likely have to use filepicker to send to s3, then have cloudinary grab the s3 links, which is hardly an efficient methodology and involves 3 services just to display images.

GBFor this price, I'd like more features and customization **** FEATURE REQUEST***** Why doesn't Filepicker allow me to upload multiple photos at a time? ____________ Filepicker is one of my most expensive API/service providers. For the money they charge, I think they will have to improve the UI design, offer more design flexibility, remove their branding entirely, and increase the number of files that each tier offers. Otherwise, I will probably find another option, or build something, to access Facebook and Instagram photos.

GBworth every penny integration was simple, easy for us to implement and easy for our customers to use. also, very cost effective, for the price I could not hire a developer to maintain all of the functionality it offers.

GBGreat Service, simple API My experience with filepicker was really great. I took off one star only because I didn't like having to go through customer service to downgrade my account (whereas I could upgrade it automatically). Very minor issue -- wish I could only take off 1/2 star. Overall great service, nice people, simple setup, and flawless in the execution. Thanks!

DEGreat transition for implementing own S3 upload Filepicker is a nice tool for uploading files - we use it to upload to amazon S3. For now i am really happy with using filepicker but there are two minor flaws and one show stopper (specific for our B2B customers) which let us change to an own implementation. The first flaw is that i can not use S3 in frankfurt because of filepicker not supporting the AWS Signature Version 4. The second is the poor interface for uploading from Google drive - it is hard to navigate to your files. What really causes the pain for leaving is rather a problem of our customers. The bigger companies we are working with are blocking filepicker within their proxies. Overall we are still satisfied =)
