DesignPickle alternative: ManyPixels👇
ManyPixels delivers higher-quality design at a much lower cost, powered by a tightly knit, experienced team and a lean model without heavy marketing overhead.
Quality of the design team
Design Pickle scaled quickly to 500+ designers. While this enables volume, maintaining consistent quality across such a large team can be challenging.
Daily workload of each designer
Designers are expected to complete 6+ projects per day, leaving limited time for deep creative focus. Customers can expect around 2 hours of work per day on their first tier.
Choice of designer
Designer selection isn’t available. Designers may change between requests, which can impact consistency.
Services offered
Some design services are only available on higher tier plans.
Pricing
Design Pickle recently shifted to an hourly-based pricing model.
- 2h/day — $1,918/mo
- 4h/day — $3,618/mo
This equals ~$50 per design hour, which at higher usage can approach the cost of a full-time hire.
Quality of the design team
We keep our team small, with many designers having 3–7 years of tenure. Each designer is carefully vetted and selected for long-term fit, allowing us to prioritize quality and consistency over volume.
Daily workload of each designer
Designers handle fewer projects per day on average, allowing more time for focus, detail, and higher-quality output.
Choice of designer
Base plans include access to our full team, with a primary designer who can get more familiar with your brand and style preference.
Higher-tier plans let you choose a designer in your timezone, based on skills and portfolio. Ideal for larger projects and long-term collaboration.
Services offered
All design services included on all plans, except video editing and motion graphics, which are unavailable on the entry tier.
Pricing
Base plans start at $699/mo
- access to the entire design team, with a primary designer who knows your brand and style preferences
- ~2h of design per day
Higher-tier plans start at $1,399/mo
- choose your own part-time designer
- real-time collaboration in the same timezone
Why is ManyPixels the better choice
- ManyPixels emphasizes quality over scale, working with a tightly knit, vetted team of long-tenured, multi-skilled designers.
- Design Pickle’s pricing reflects higher marketing spend and overhead, while ManyPixels operates a leaner model that is 2–3× more cost-efficient.
- ManyPixels offers an assigned designer model, letting teams choose their own part-time designer and collaborate in real time.
