## PicBackMan Reviews
  ### 1. Doesn’t work, they invade personal files and don’t give refund

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** David K. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 04, 2023

**What do you like best about PicBackMan?**

There are none. Software doesn't work at all!

**What do you dislike about PicBackMan?**

After actually having to purchase the software due to the amount of images I needed transferring from SmugMug to Dropbox, this is when I found out it doesn’t actually work.

It connects to my SmugMug fine ambit my Dropbox it doesn’t and shows tokens expired. The team at picbackman don’t respond to emails of support and so I took my questions to Dropbox. They say the token expires because they receive odd requests to copy your personal data without permission and placement of virus files within you Dropbox space. So basically your paying for a scam.

**What problems is PicBackMan solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They em aren't responding at all so are not resolving any issues.

  ### 2. if you have a large amount of photos on SmugMug, don't count on it working or getting effective help

**Reviewed by:** Don B. | Photographer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2022

**What do you like best about PicBackMan?**

pickbackman is easy to set up and use - I know because i used it incorrectly (I guess) several times and had a zoom session with a technical person and it still didn't work so they did it for me and came up with an index that was 200,000 files short.

**What do you dislike about PicBackMan?**

see above and add that each time they said they'd do something I had to remind them a week later and they said give them another chance or they'd refund my $129 and I gave them another chance and it didn't work nor did they refund me

**What problems is PicBackMan solving and how is that benefiting you?**

**Reviewed Date:** May 17, 2019

**What do you like best about PicBackMan?**

Easy to use interface, nice method of connecting accounts, progress monitoring and ability to provide support with logfiles and database from local machine if required. Support is awesome, and very responsive. I didn't have any issues communicating with the support team and they were always ready to look at my issues and try to resolve them in the quickest and easiest way possible. I would highly recommend you look at this product if you have pictures to migrate or download from an online service.

**What do you dislike about PicBackMan?**

Software doesn't handle large collections so well. But this might just be me because I had so many photos in my source connection

Don't use anyone else - PicBackMan is the product you need!

I had a huge collection of photos in flickr - almost 70,000 and was struggling to migrate them to Google Photos. After a couple of weeks of trying, and not being able to afford the MigrateMan option, PicBackMan offered to do it for me! Amazing service. All my photos migrated with no issues. I would strongly recommend using this software.

**Reviewed Date:** July 11, 2018

**What do you like best about PicBackMan?**

PicBackMan is one of the best tool upload Photos and Videos to Flickr, Facebook, Dropbox, etc. Simple reason to love PicBackMan is it is a desktop uploader that helps you to bulk upload photos & videos from desktop also from mobile devices. 

Another highlight is PicBackMan provides Free Forever plan gives 5000 photos and 100 videos every month for free.

I don't see any negative on PicBackMan but their elite plan asks near $7 per month. I don't think that is affordable for freelance photographers or beginners. Otherwise the tool is fantastic.

  ### 7. my favorite place

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Elba Maria R. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 20, 2018

**What do you like best about PicBackMan?**

What I like most about this program is that I can store my photos here and from here, using picbackman, I can share them with most of my social networks and send each of my works or the services that I offer to many of my clients. with just one click, it's a wonder, since I tried it on using it until now, almost two years using this program and I really do not regret it.

**What do you dislike about PicBackMan?**

I have certain social networks as pinterest and accounts in deviant art and even the program has not included them in their networks to share, I do not like that since a long time ago it still has the same networks, I think they can incorporate new ones to offer a better service to all the clients that good, we already have a good time using the program, and really it would serve us an update in general to improve.

**Recommendations to others considering PicBackMan:**

if they are busy people, with enough time to administer their files on their networks, I recommend that you start using picbackman, in a matter of minutes they will have all the networks they have in your system, the file that you want and it will be shared with users who are added or who follow their accounts.

**What problems is PicBackMan solving and how is that benefiting you?**

When it comes to using a single image and I want to share it with different people in different networks, using picbackman solves everything, because with only store this image that I want to share in the program I can send it from there simultaneously to all the networks in which I want to share, great not? since I started using it, I resolved a lot the issue of the administration of my files.

I love this program, its software, functions, tools and everything are very well created and are very easy to use, you do not need to be a professional to use the program and get a lot out of it, by allowing to manage and share images becomes even more ideal for us, the photographers and it also becomes a gigantic help for our work, making us expand our services quickly.

**What do you dislike about PicBackMan?**

It is a program with an incredible potential that could explode even more with the incorporation of many of the new social networks to your system, in this aspect I think the program has been left behind, it needs to be updated with the new that the market has offered of social networks so that it can offer a better service to all users who have acquired PicBackMan and use it constantly as a tool of work.

**Recommendations to others considering PicBackMan:**

Well I said it before, it is a program that beyond being just that is a work tool, as well as our camera, this program can be essential for the management and control of our work on social networks, allowing us to share it through of all of them and so we can expand everything we offer to a gigantic public such as the web public.

**What problems is PicBackMan solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Being a program that allows the administration and storage of our files and in turn allow all these photos uploaded to the can be shared in different social networks automatically makes it a very necessary program, since nowadays everything moves through networks , being able to use this program as a base to display the photos to all our networks at the same time makes the program go from being that, a program, to becoming a practical and useful work tool.

On different occasions the program has led me to force a closed and open it again, because I tried to share my file to five different destinations and casually when I perform operations of more than 3 or 4 networks the program usually freezes and does not work anymore, As much as I wait, it just gets stuck, I think it's something that urgently needs to be checked and solved for the convenience of the users.
