Overview
Cloudinary is a media management platform best known for APIs that transform, optimise and deliver images and video, with a DAM product layered on the same infrastructure. Its programmable media plans are priced on monthly credits: a free plan with 25 credits, Plus at US$99 a month (US$89 billed yearly) with 225 credits, Advanced at US$249 a month (US$224 yearly) with 600 credits, and Enterprise by quote. One credit equals 1,000 transformations, 1 GB of managed storage, 1 GB of image bandwidth or 2 GB of video bandwidth on paid plans.[9]
The DAM product offers a 30-day free trial for three users with 25 GB of storage, while Enterprise DAM is quote-based.[9] Cloudinary suits e-commerce and media companies whose main problem is delivering many image and video variants quickly to websites and apps. Marketing teams wanting brand portals and guidelines may prefer brand-oriented DAMs, and credit-based billing requires monitoring.
