Is the Envato Elements Worth It?

Best stock asset subscription overall. For a team that makes things every week, Envato Elements replaces three subscriptions and charges less than one. Photographers and agencies buying hero images for campaigns will still want Adobe or Shutterstock alongside it.

Envato Elements Pros & Cons

Pros
  • 18 of 20 briefs filled — templates, motion graphics and music were unbeatable
  • One flat price, no download counting
  • Single commercial licence covers everything; register the asset to a project
  • Canva Pro integration and Adobe plugin
Cons
  • Photography is broad but shallower than Adobe or Shutterstock at the top end
  • Assets must be registered to a project to stay licensed after cancelling
  • Search is keyword-only; no similar-image search
