Pic-Time

The last digital gallery and print marketing system pro photographers will ever need!

Kommentare: In the 3 years that I've used Pic-Time, my print sales have grown by leaps and bounds. I don't have to think about my print marketing. If the galleries are there, and clients + their guests are there to see them, I already have the solid base that needs to be nurtured. That's where Pic-Time comes in and makes the job just seamless, both on my end and the customers' end. I have gotten so many accolades on the way that my galleries look, feel and are handled, from the most important things - client privacy - to the way everything is handled and presented in a truly stunning, professional way.

I love EVERYTHING about Pic-Time! I've started using it because I felt the need to automate my print marketing campaigns. After publishing a gallery online it was pointless to just leave the images there to gather digital dust. Enter Pic-Time, with stunning graphics, well though out copywriting and automated campaigns for every.single.possible type of event a photographer could market for: birthday gifting, anniversary, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Christmas/Holidays, whatever you want it's there. And if it's not, the tools are there so you can custom build it in less time than it took me to write this review!! Probably one of the most important things about Pic-Time is the attention given to the community of creators and users, through their Facebook group. The owners are incredibly involved with the group, they listen, they always, ALWAYS help and take suggestions into account. I believe this is how their company has grown so incredibly well and they've been able to add more services like the Art Store and Slideshows, because they look at community feedback and take action.

Nachteile:

I wish self fulfilled shipping options would be a little easier to figure out/calculate. The software helps to an extend, but there is still a bit of work involved. However Pic-Time shines in lab fulfillment itself, and self fulfillment is just an option. Also adding products for self fulfill should be a bit more streamlined. Alas, minor inconveniences.

Wish I would have switched to this a lot sooner!

Kommentare: I wish I would have switched over to using Pic-Time from my other gallery software a long time ago!!!

Vorteile:

I love love LOVE all the various sales automation "apps" you can set up and run. For my all-inclusive clients, it makes it so EASY to deliver digital downloads to them, and is especially great for my extended family shoots and biz/branding shoots where lots of different people need access. I've also started using the "early bird sale" app to automatically offer these clients a discount off of prints/products in my store if purchased within one week of seeing their gallery. In the past, most clients never ordered through me. Now, I'm making extra $$ most times!! And with my store set up with my favorite labs, the orders are placed automatically and I don't have to do ANY extra work to get that extra cash!

Nachteile:

It's time consuming to set up, and also a bit complicated. But there are great tutorials and a great support team, so that definitely helps.

Pleased with Pic Time

Kommentare: I really like the layout of the Gallery, and the option of linking the store to the pictures, with control over pricing. As well as being aesthetically pleasing, it is also easy to use.

Vorteile:

I like the ease of use, with setting up a Gallery.

Nachteile:

The app isnt fully functional yet for the photographer dashboard, but I believe they are working on it.

Useful for client galleries

Vorteile:

It’s a convenient site for clients to browse and download their photos. The on-site shop is convenient for prints and products should the client want them, albeit pricey.

Nachteile:

There were a few instances of a buggy uploading process. When uploading a large quantity of photos, certain files might not show up afterwards. I would have to re-upload a lot of the photos several times before everything was there.
