Reviewers mostly see Icons8 as a strong, practical design resource: they praise the large asset library, high-quality icons and illustrations, fast search across styles, and tools that fit smoothly into real workflows, including its Figma plugin, Mac app, Lunacy, Mega Creator, and AI editing features. The common theme is convenience and speed for demos and everyday design work. The main criticism is pricing around the free tier: some users say you quickly hit paywalls or have to accept lower-quality assets, which can make the value feel uneven over time.
