Blinkbid is an indispensable tool for my commercial photography business

PROS

This software helps me in an essential part of my commercial photography business. Each week I create several bids for photo campaigns. Blinkbid makes it easy for me to build my estimates. An absolutely essential element is that is helps me determine licensing-- how much to charge for use/usage of my photos. Basically you can enter the industry, number of images, where they will be used, and your experience... then it suggests a range of what to charge. I would have NO idea where to start without it. Saves time and helps answer difficult questions!

CONS

I really have no complaints about the software... more just a complaint in photography that so many businesses are trying to get away without paying licensing fees nowadays!

Love the features but don’t love the price.

PROS

Blinkbid has all I need for professional invoicing and is [sensitive content hidden] es for professional photographers.

CONS

It’s cost. While I love the product. $26 a month is high for a single use program for a freelancer.

Reason for choosing Blinkbid

I liked that it’s tailored for my type of business

Customer Support is TERRIBLE

Was good until this issue.

PROS

Comprehensive, easy to share and industry standard

CONS

Customer service is HORRIBLE. Didnt respond to a single email of mine for customer support. I cant trust a company that doesnt help when in need using THEIR product!

Vendor Response

Hi Samer, we have an in app communication portal under your user name. Simply select Help. We find this to be much more effective than email which can get lost in spam folders.

Probably one of the best tools for creatives

PROS

It allows you to work with different types of "personalities" which are representations of different types of services (photography, video, etc.). It also allows you to operate in different countries, providing all documents in different languages and currencies.

CONS

First time set up can be time & energy consuming. Once you're done, it's smooth like a baby's bottom.

Reasons for switching to Blinkbid

Overall, I find BB doing more of what I need. It's cheaper, too.

good luck if you have an issue. I have been trying to get support for three weeks now with nothing.
