Find the perfect fit
Use Archways to compare GIMP with alternatives and find the best software for your needs.
GIMP is a cross-platform image editor available for GNU/Linux, macOS, Windows and more operating systems. It is free software, you can change its source code and distribute your changes.
GIMP is a solid choice for individuals and small teams who need a powerful, no-cost alternative to Photoshop for image editing, graphic design, or digital art. Its open-source nature means you get a surprising amount of flexibility and extensibility, but be prepared for a steeper learning curve and less polished user experience compared to commercial rivals. GIMP shines for organizations with tight budgets or those who value customization, but it lacks some advanced features, native collaboration tools, and professional support that larger creative teams might expect. For businesses, the value is unbeatable if you can handle the DIY approach to support and training, but it's not ideal for high-volume, enterprise-grade creative workflows.
