"As a professional photographer, I can’t recommend it."
What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Photographers?

I used to use Photoshelter mainly to send images to clients. This was before Dropbox became popular. I also used it as a third backup option, and it has been very useful many times for sending images quickly.rface hasn't been updated for about 10 years, so it feels very dated now, but it used to be very The visual inte good.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Photographers?

They haven’t kept up with updates or made the platform relevant to today’s market. It feels like the same software from ten years ago. While customer service responds, their hands are tied because it seems no one is actively developing anything with the software. The sad part is that the client side seems to have had energy and love put into it.

A feature I’m waiting for in Photoshelter for photographers is the integration of AI, which would be amazing. If they introduced this, it would be indispensable. I create pitch folders for jobs, and being able to search for subjects would be incredibly efficient and helpful. Unfortunately, it seems they aren’t spending time updating or improving the software. I would move on, but I haven’t found a suitable alternative yet. As soon as I do, I’ll seriously consider it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"FTP function of site is not working, and they don't care to investigate"

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Photographers?

FTP relayer not dependable, and THEY DON'T CARE!

I have used Photoshelter for over 15 years. I depend on them to FTP out my images to my clients. Well, I found out that their FTP logs say they went, but, clients have not received complete sets. In fact, they received a few images here and there, but not the complete set sent. Their customer service swears it's my problem. I have proven to them that the same settings deliver photos via another FTP systerm, and their does not. They reinterate their logs prove the images were sent. Alas, I can prove the images were not received.

Their last pity email was to suggest I use my own FTP program, and not depend on theirs, and provided a link to cancel my account (over a terrabyte of data).

They have shown no interest in getting to the bottom of this. Am I the only one with this problem? I doubt it.

"The worst support assitance ever"
What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Photographers?

Good speed uploading my photos to my website and a good speed charging the site Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Photographers?

I'm still waiting (over a WEEK) if Photoshelter's Support Team is going to answer my emails at the following adress:

support@photoshelter.com

I sent them 3 emails explaining a problem with the payment of the bill for the current month, but I haven't recieved any response yet and I'm still waiting more than a week and the problem persists: at this moment I can't access to my profile and website and I can't work with my clients due to the Photoshelter's incompetence and delay answering our support mails.

"limitless photo storage"
What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Photographers?

Photoshelter is a competitive package because it offers very useful features like photo storage, editing tools, and even gives video lectures on getting sales etc.

the best feature I like about it is its how it organizes files, it makes files so organized that searching them is easy and very accessible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Photographers?

I like the way its interface works but eventually cost comes in between which is too costly for such a work.

also, it takes a lot of time while uploading multiple files at a time, which makes this part boring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Large storage space and easy to use"

The very large storage capacity and easy to use interface. Adding new users is quick. Uploading is easy and the settings for public or private collections is straight forward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It doesn't allow for pre-packaged ZIP files. Sometimes the search tool doesn't always work, but I get around that by using subject folders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simplifying photography, Good for displaying and selling photos,"
What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Photographers?

PhotoShelter provides a lot of features to make photography business simple. It provides a simple path from clicking pictures to showing to selling. Some features like cloud storage and using your own domain name is amazing.

Setup is easy and also provides responsive websites for our photography eCommerce business. Uploading various image formats and also having a image security by adding watermarks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoShelter for Photographers?

I have used its trial version and found it amazing for photography business. But at the same time I find it too much expensive for any of its plan. Storage capacity for basic plan should be little higher and with the accordance with the monthly charges. I think it should have also a beginner plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
