The publisher is Picsart, Inc., based in United States. The service launched in 2011, which gives it some track record.

Who is it for?

It is mostly useful to these profiles: graphic designers, social media managers, marketers, and online retailers. The need it covers is simple to state: edit, cut out and upscale photos.

Picsart is a good candidate if:

• you want to try before paying
• you plan to connect it to your tools or automations through its API
• you also work from your phone

The best test is a concrete case from your daily work: if the tool does not beat your current method within a week, move on to an alternative.
