Customer story: Plate

Plate is a SaaS web building platform. We started out as an easy to use frontend-based cms, but we've grown towards a platform that offers a solid base for web building with data and content modelling capabilities, portal functionality, progressive web apps, etc, while still offering an easy frontend cms for end users. We are now working on Plate with a team of 12 people, and I am in the role of CTO.

The image processing is blazing fast, and Libpixel offers great and speedy help if we have any questions. I'd definitely recommend Libpixel for any image processing needs.

We use Libpixel for compressing uploaded images, and we built a wrapper in Plate, so users can edit and crop their images on the fly directly inside their HTML templates.

Before Libpixel we used simple storage with S3. It was up to the client to upload correctly compressed and sized images.

Libpixel has a significantly better price point and offers a much more solid API documentation in comparison with the competition. On top of that I received amazingly fast replies on my questions when I was orientating on image processing. I still do.

We're very glad to have chosen Libpixel for our image processing. We have been using Libpixel for a few years now and we've never experienced any downtime whatsoever. We wanted to be able to offer super fast and on the fly image editing capabilities to our users, and Libpixel has made it possible. I had it up and running 100 times faster than if I tried to build something myself. The image processing is blazing fast, and Libpixel offers great and speedy help if we have any questions. I'd definitely recommend Libpixel for any image processing needs.
