Pros:

No matter how good your photos Pixieset makes them look sensational. My clients adore their albums this way. It’s also a fantastic way of sharing pix with family and friends using the link and password. Relatively easy to create the portfolio and can be done quickly. They also provide a free site builder which looks great.

Cons:

I do believe it’s a little pricey despite being a huge fan. To be honest that’s all I dislike

Reasons for choosing Pixieset

The final online portfolio was superior in every way and it was an easy decision

Sometimes I wish I could customize more, but the ease of use makes it worth it to give up a little of that.

Pros:

Very intuitive and features are very handy to help speed up processes. Collection (galleries) are aesthetically pleasing with many templates to offer. Collaboration with clients and team members is simple.

Cons:

Navigation when uploading content is not the best, especially when you are uploading a lot of content in different sets. Lots of auto scroll ups after completing a set and max character limitations.

Functionality

Pros:

I have been using Pixiset since 2014. I love Pixieset because it allows my customers to easily download their ordered images both on a computer and on their mobile device. I also like how easy it is to have clients purchase prints directly through their gallery. I also love that PNG files are now supported. I also love how there are tiers for the subscriptions. I use the Pro 1,000 GB plan.

Cons:

I wish there was a way to make a gallery to be automatically "published" instead of always having to click "publish" after uploading the images to send to a client. I also would like to see more customization for how the images are displayed to the client. Maybe have it look more "corporate" in some cases. I do however wish the shopping cart would integrate with Square instead of Stripe

Reasons for switching to Pixieset

I made the switch for cost savings, easy to use, and more features.

Good option for gallery hosting

Overall I had a good experience for the amount of time I've used Pixieset. It was really easy to upload and deploy galleries, send to my clients and guests, I loved the gallery PIN option as well. Favoriting images was very easy both on my end and clients' end and it made my life easy when time came for me to design artwork for printing.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

I have used Pixieset for around 6 years. I used it for mainly gallery hosting, although I did have very few print and digital files sales through the system when they later implemented the Store option.

Cons:

I did try the website option as beta testing, but it was incredibly limited for me as a more seasoned photographer. For someone else who would be a beginner photographer, I would totally recommend it, as it is a nice and quick drag and drop option, but in the long run, you are stuck with something limiting, especially in terms of SEO and design. Now that they have purchased Flothemes, things may change for the better, so we will see where that goes.

Reasons for choosing Pixieset

Mainly pricing at the time.

Pros:

I love the fact the expiration feature and scheduled emails. The password protection and custom folders for individual user experience.

Cons:

I wish they allowed scheduling for emails and alot of my clients struggle trying to get back into their favorites folder to make changes. I also wish their were more options to customize the client folder.

Reasons for choosing Pixieset

Already good but could be great

Overall it’s good and it’s my main website for my business. It could use some improvements and move a little faster to be up to speed with similar services from other companies.

Customer support

Functionality

Pros:

It’s easy to use and has great options for customizing the look of your site. It’s also simple for customers to navigate on their side. One other great feature is being able to set custom price sheets for different types of photo sessions.

Cons:

They’re expanding the CRM side but a scheduling feature would be great to have. It seems like they are slow to add features that would make it all-inclusive. There is also no phone contact for support and it all has to go through email. While I understand that more features cost money, but I feel like they nickel-and-done for everything, including using your own domain.

Pros:

Very easy to use. My wife & I are amateur photographers and it is a fantastic way to display work to future clientele and also share galleries with current customers!

Cons:

When first creating the site the "themes" felt a tad limited but we made it work! I believe they have a much larger selection now.
