What do you like best about the product?
I get the chance to follow creators within my interest. I engage in their posts and also share mine for my followers to engage. There is also a wide range of areas where you can follow other ideas and people who blog about them.

What do you dislike about the product?
It is almost impossible to reach their customer service. I do not know why that's the case, but they should do something about it. Also, the platform has less user activity, in my opinion.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can easily follow people who blog about what I like. The explore feature is also cool and you can check out a ton of blogs and bloggers. The trend side also lets you know how many recent posts you have in your topics of interest

What do you like best about the product?
Tumblr tries to "look good" but has the worst treatment of customers. They trap you with campaigns you need to pay to get more "likes" for your works. But you won't get many. They send you messages that you campaign was "full impact" with many views and hood-lookung statistics. But you don't have the "likes". You try to contact them -which is really difficult - but you won't get any (senseful) response. Tumblr is just blablabla... won't recommend it for any artist!

What do you dislike about the product?
They grab your money for campaigns that you'll get more "likes" for your artworks. They always the the campaign is "full impact" but what a cheek! They'll send you great statistics about many views of your artwork but no more likes!?!?! Thus you show your art on other websites too and they're beloved! Tumblr is just playing with your confidence and hope but they'll do NOTHING for you even to respond to your mails! HANDS OFF!!!

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Platform to show your artwork, bad, more illusion than reality!

What do you like best about the product?
It is a good place to find different kinds of communities. I have used tumbler for my work when I have needed to talk with people about their experiences with products. It is a nice place to find people willing to talk with you voluntarily.

What do you dislike about the product?
I think I have found better websites to navigate like reddit. It is also in my opinion visually crowded. There is ways for customization which is nice. But I think it can be better in the first impression.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A nice place with different communities. It helps me connect with different users.

What do you like best about the product?
I've had tumblr for years and years now, I will never delete/stop using tumblr

What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it wasn't phasing out. I hardly ever seen any new content on there. I have over 35k followers and follow a lot of different accounts but there's not a lot of new content or active people. Seems like there has a been a lot of bots the last several years and more ads, it used to be more of a community

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have met hundreds and hundreds of friends that i've made through Tumblr over the years and have made best friends with them over the years, gone on trips and vacations with some, asked for advice from others. It's been a great social tool and connector - when it was "big" but i feel as though it's fallen off

The content! You can find inspiration, knowledge, and community on the platform.

What do you dislike about the product?
The loading time can get slow whenever you enter the website. Some content formats can feel heavy.

What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can create your own space and customize it to your liking. I like how we can write short form blogs in it.

What do you dislike about the product?
It's very difficult to build your audience organically as the number of people using Tumblr itself is very small.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Unlike other platforms you can share blogs with a link to the website hopefully to get some traffic.

What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Tumblr is having the option to have my profile private as well as having multiple accounts. I also enjoy joinging other account users creative space where I could communicate with them on there.

What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike most about Tumblr are the advertisements you get stopped by and have to mute or pt for a pro/premium service to have them removed. There should be an option to silence the Candy Crush advertisement one time and not everytime you swipe past one.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tumblr was helping me with modeling by allowed by me to have a creative space to post my photos and edits in a safe space for myself. I have many followers and I am following many with the same dreams.

No problems that are being solved with Tumblr but it allows creativity to flourish

I like that I can curate my feed and receive bite-sized content that is not overwhelming.

What do you dislike about the product?
The downside is that there are quite a bit of good content creators that have left for other platforms.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a free resource for content and information. It's definitely worth a shot to try.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tumblr helps fuel my creative team. It's easy to pop on and scroll a bit until an idea is had.

What do you like best about the product?
It's a platform that is all media forms friendly. You can get the most of something in multiple mediums and media.

What do you dislike about the product?
It's not as mainstream as it was when I was first introduced to it but still rivals as a solid strong platform.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since it's not as popular I use it as a personal public journal. It's an escape really being other social media platforms are monitored so heavily.

What do you like best about the product?
Tumblr's demographics serve marketers very well as the engagement is sometimes higher compared to other media depending on the company. The templates have great choices and the system provided good formatting tools.

What do you dislike about the product?
Tumblr's pages can't be fully edited as you have to choose from templates and there are no sorting options. The system also doesn't provide detailed statistics for customer engagement

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been able to share media and short form content to target markets for both the company I worked for and my personal business page. I'm also able to use visual examples within a digital community.

What do you like best about the product?
I like the pining of things you like or ideas you want to keep and hold on to.

What do you dislike about the product?
I would use Instagram over tumblr. You can do the same by saving pictures and videos in an archive folder you can create. I don't think you can save videos. It's not as simple but still useful.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
More simple easier ways to access the website without having to download the app.

What do you like best about the product?
I like that Tumblr is so straightforward and easy to use. It has a quirky feel to it that helps us connect with younger people. Tumblr allows users to search for keywords and tags related to the media they want to see. We can add tags to our images to make them easier for users to find. The overall layout is clean and easy to navigate. I also like that users can comment or share media in their own Tumblr accounts.

What do you dislike about the product?
Though Tumblr can be great for a certain audience, it might seem weird and confusing to some people. It doesn't really have the most professional image and might not be the best choice to post media related to business. Though Tumblr has recent restricted adult content, I feel that it still has somewhat of an edgy feel that might be off-putting to some people.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think Tumblr is great for basic image posting needs. It can be used internally or for public posting. I'd recommend it for its fast image loading times, low cost and ease of use. You should be mindful that there is tons of content on Tumblr that might be considered weird to your customers or clients.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been able to use Tumblr as a platform to quickly post images online. Using Tumblr allows us to save server space and generally loads images very quickly and reliably. We haven't had any complaint of images not loading. Tumblr has also been a place where people can leave comments about photos and images, which include things like promotional graphics or product mock up photos. We can also use Tumblr for team collaborations. We just send a link out to different team members so we can all access the same images and comment on it.

What do you like best about the product?
I like that Tumblr allows us to upload a ton of photos, which can save a bunch of server space. It is also an extremely simple and organized place for people to go and view your posts. It's easy to tag photos so they are searchable by users that might be interested in your posts.

What do you dislike about the product?
Tumblr is somewhat of an odd platform that isn't the most widely used by the mainstream. Though I enjoy its simplicity, it would be nice to have options to make your page and posts more customized to help match the branding of our business.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Tumblr isn't difficult to sign up for and use, so it's worth starting an account to build a presence there.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tumblr has been a platform that allows us to quickly post information about a wide variety of topics. We can easily link to the post from a number of different platforms, like Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. It mainly serves as a supplementary third-party media platform.

What do you like best about the product?
I like Tumblr's minimalist website design and easy to use blogging platform. We can conveniently link to images from many sources like our website, email newsletters, Facebook, Instagram or Twitter. We can get feedback about promotions, events, product renderings and more through user interactions on Tumblr. Working with digital media can be complicated sometimes, so Tumblr is a great way for all of our team members to manage simple digital media files.

What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that Tumblr has somewhat of a reputation for being odd or not mainstream. The fact that we sometimes use Tumblr might make our company seem odd as well. Though Tumblr has some themes we can add to change the look of our page, I would like to see more customizable features that can allow for CSS code and other styling options.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd suggest using Tumblr to host images that aren't critical to your business communications. Tumblr to me is more of a fun and light-hearted platform that can help make your company seem more down to earth. You probably shouldn't rely on it to host important images or other content.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Tumblr to post images and other content that are extensions of out other posts on social media websites like Facebook and Twitter. We also us it to post content for internal use. It's been a great way for us to post files in a simple and uncomplicated way. We can save resources from having files take us space on our web server, which might not load the files as quickly as they do on Tumblr's servers. We can get consistently fast load times with Tumblr.

What do you like best about the product?
I have used Tumblr to post artwork for around five years, and it is fairly easy to build up a following there so long as you post things that are popular. People tend to interact with posts a lot more than on other websites (particularly with leaving tags on things giving their thoughts on whatever it is you posted, whether positive or constructive criticism).

What do you dislike about the product?
Tumblr has a whole lot of drama that probably isn't worth it to the average company. Its users have a unique sense of humor that, unless you (like me) are a millennial who is well acquainted with that kind of humor, can be confusing and prohibitive to gaining any following on Tumblr.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tumblr is my main source to post my artwork. Unlike other websites such as Twitter and Facebook, it has no expectation of being social as well if you only use it for art — meaning you can post artwork whenever you complete a piece and then dedicate the rest of your time elsewhere.

What do you like best about the product?
Tumblr has an easy interface and it is easy to sign up. One does not have to be an expert in coding and design to have a beautiful blog. This would be easy to have a blog about your business or office and quickly share it to others to promote your office or business.

What do you dislike about the product?
Be aware that much of Tumblr is used for people's personal accounts and thus there can be lots of non-business like information and pictures on the Tumblr site (i.e. not safe for work photos on some Tumblr blog sites).

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be aware of all the social media site, Tumblr is one of the least popular but it is still very popular. It is not unheard of but it is not nearly as popular as Facebook or Instagram. It is pretty easy to use and one could quickly develop the site/blog they want.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tumblr is mostly used for people's personal accounts and is not often used as a business platform (think of Facebook 'Pages'). This does make it difficult to get a business set up on the site but if the business or office uses Instagram or Facebook and those are successful, the business could also use Tumblr to quickly write blogs and post photos for their customers/clients to see.

I like that you can customize your Tumblr page quickly and get something posted without having to do a lot of formatting. It's a powerful tool to get you started with your blog.

What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like the process of switching from the editing mode to the WYSIWYG mode. They seem to be too different. I also thought that there would be more free templates.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take a tutorial on how to use it so you don't get too far along in building your pages and then find that you have to go backwards and rebuild.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed a way to get a blog up and running quickly and inexpensively and this was the perfect product for that.

What do you like best about the product?
It's the best social network to share images, sounds, and videos. It is ideal for artists and topic-oriented communities. Young audience, and always fresh content makes this network an easy to use and friendly relax-creative portal.

What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes post are too off-topic, or not so well categorized.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
While the competitors are trying to catch up, Tumblr was one of the first stable, media-rich, content platforms. And it will remain (in my opinion) a step ahead.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me with my marketing demands. This platform can help you to create viral organic content.

What do you dislike about the product?
Templates have limitations, not as big of a user base as other social networks

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Are better options for CMS, i.e., WordPress, that have wide variety of templates as well

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Different than Twitter or Facebook from the standpoint of long form content hosting as well as SEO
