Storyblocks Reviews in September 2026: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

Great selection and easy to use!

Great selection and easy to use! Somewhat pricy, though, and I wish they also had still photos included in the same membership.

Good Service

Very easy to navigate the site and download the clips. Good choices and all professionally produced .

VideoBlocks/AudioBlocks

Are the best option when it comes to any media project. I use adobe after effects and premiere pro to finish my videos. also when I use easyworship to show the lyrics with different backgrounds from vedeoblock combined with audioblocks they are the best when it comes to the last finishes of any videos or even any potcast.

Great site - reasonable price.

I like Videoblocks because for a low annual fee I can get good videos. I have not had the service too long, but in the time I have been a member, I have found some good videos for my social media posts. It's also good to know that if I find a video I like that is not in the free/members section, it won't cost me an arm and a leg to purchase.

Same as others - free trial scam

Like many others here, I signed up for a free trial, cancelled within the 14 days, and was surprised to find I continued to be charged $49 a month. No email confirmations when cancelling, or ever - they say because they don't want to "run the risk of our emails landing in your spam filter." Since when is that an issue for any company? Seems like a way to keep "subscribers" in the dark. What a scam.

The selection is average, and the search tool is very poor.

The unlimited content is really poor most of the time. Especially since a lot of it is already in the public domain. For the price that I paid I feel cheated, they didn't make it clear that I would have access to only a limited library with the "unlimited account". It felt sneaky and underhanded. The search tool isn't very smart and neither is the filtering. You can't search search stuff by frame-rate or codec, so it's not really a filmmaker's tool. I use it for stuff where quality isn't ...

A Video is Worth Million Words...

A picture is worth a thousand words...Videoblocks.com is Worth Million Words:)

Excellent, and easy to use

I have been using VideoBlocks for 2 years. It's easy to use and it has a very good library to choose from.

Not worth it

this isnt about customer service.. its about content.. dont become a memeber because you wont get what you pay for... you will pay a subscription then have to pay for anything decent.. dont bother

Misleading...

...The initial subscription promise... "great footage for unlimited downloads" ha! Once you sign, the subscription footage is of very low quality. Anything half-decent will cost you extra. Plus beware, if you are not vigilant, after a year they automatically renew the subscription without asking you.
