Google Fo...

75/100

Google Fonts excels for development and design teams needing cost-free typography with simple implementation. Product teams benefit from fast load times and reliable CDN, though enterprise brand teams may struggle with the lack of exclusive commercial fonts and dedicated support channels found in paid alternatives like Adobe Fonts.

Envato El...

70/100

Envato Elements excels for marketing, design, and content teams who need constant access to stock photos, video templates, and graphics without per-asset fees. Engineering, data science, and operations teams typically see zero adoption since the platform offers no workflow or code repository tools. Organizations heavy on presentation creation or social media content see 80%+ adoption within the creative department.

Adoption RiskExpected friction, training effort, and behavior change needed to move teams onto the alternative.
