PhotoShelter for Brands Reviews & Product Details

Easy, intuitive folder organization system (collections and galleries). Easy to add licensing info, tags, and other metadata. Also like the permission capabilities for folders. Customer support has also been great experience - prompt, personable support with real people Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Would be helpful if you integrated a functionality for markups/edits/notes on photos that are IP in post-production phase so we didn't have to use a third-party to upload the photos for edits/markups. We use frame.io for that but would streamline our process and save money if PhotoShelter offered that functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how PhotoShelter for Brands makes it easy to organize creative assets for my team and share them with our community, including people who aren’t as technologically savvy. It gives us a way to share assets with the people who need them while keeping access controlled. I value the general hosting, and I like the robust search feature because it helps me find what I need quickly and accurately. I also like being able to house and edit videos, crop images, and create derivatives directly in PhotoShelter for Brands. I don’t have to download an image and open it separately in Photoshop to get the right dimensions, which saves a lot of time when I’m preparing something specific for a website or social post. Those video and editing features have been particularly helpful for our social media team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m still working on ways to share with a large number of people while keeping access limited and we’re exploring the SSO option for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about PhotoShelter is how easy it makes organising, managing and sharing large volumes of imagery across a business. The interface is straightforward and makes finding specific assets quick and efficient, particularly through its AI search and tagging features. It's especially useful for keeping everything in one central location, making it easier for different teams to access and use approved imagery without unnecessary back-and-forth.

One of the main drawbacks is that the interface can sometimes feel a little dated, and certain features aren't always as intuitive as they could be. Managing large volumes of assets can occasionally feel cumbersome, particularly when organising folders or updating metadata. The integrations with other software and platforms could also be improved, particularly when working across different creative tools, as the process isn't always as seamless as expected. The pricing can also be relatively high, especially if you're not making full use of all the features available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PhotoShelter for Brands allows easy and accessible digital asset management. PhotoShelter's 'People ID' automated metadata not only improves workflow, but allows for others to easily locate and download specific assets. Customer support at PhotoShelter is extremely easy and reliable when running into any problems, or when introducing a new feature. Support has been extremely helpful when getting setup as an administrator, as well as answering any questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although PhotoShelter is extremely helpful and reliable, it can seem a little expensive with additional add-ons such as extra storage space and advanced automated features Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tools for sorting photos, tagging them, and providing an environment where users can quickly access the right photos they are looking for is very helpful. The AI search feature is very handy when we are trying to research where a photo came from or find similar solutions quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Correcting and fixing tags, providing decent descriptions, and sorting through old photos that we don't want to integrate is very labor-intensive. The field options for different photos is a bit overwhelming and most of them are not relevant to us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like organizing images and using the search to find them. The search is very easy, and I also appreciate the ability to share what we want to share. Setting up PhotoShelter for Brands was also easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is sometimes difficult to download the images I am searching for in bulk. Some UI interface improvements in searching and being able to select the images you want to download. It is a little pricey but does the job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a very customizable, flexible interface that you can tailor to fit your needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I honestly don’t have anything negative to say about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use PhotoShelter for Brands as Columbia College's centralized photo library, and I like that it helps our campus photography archive feel organized, accessible, and genuinely useful. It allows multiple departments to easily find and download approved images on their own, saving me time, ensuring a professional photo delivery, and supporting Columbia College long after each shoot is finished. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some features could be more intuitive, especially around permissions, folder organization, and user management. I also prefer the Classic Library and do not like that I have to switch it over every single time I use the site. That is probably the most frustrating feature.

The software is easy to use and has a clean, clear interface. The support team is quick to respond whenever I need help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The system’s flexibility isn’t as high as I’d like. Bugs show up more often than I expected, and there aren’t immediate solutions when they do. It works great for images, but it doesn’t handle other types of media as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s easy to store my photos, and the AI search makes it quick and simple to find exactly the ones I’m looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s a pricey option and may be out of budget for some people. On top of that, having to pay extra for additional features is also a bit of a drawback. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
