What i don’t like about this site is it’s paid plans its too expensive the pay as you go plan cost 2$ per icon.

The pro plans start 9$ for 10 icons per month / monthly or 19$ for 50 icons per month which is too expensive for just icons in my opinion.

The unlimited plan costs 49$ / month which is useful for big corporations as it allows upto 25 members to use.
