Represented Australia by Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 8/6/2024 "As a professional photographer, I can’t recommend it." 0.5/5 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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. 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.

Owner Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) 3/18/2024 "FTP function of site is not working, and they don't care to investigate" 1/5 What do you like best about PhotoShelter for Photographers? Designed for photographers to store and organize their content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. 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. Date of experience: March 12, 2024 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
