I finally decided on using 3 components for my personal ultimate solution for photo management, presentation, and sharing: I think, if the direction of development continues, it will be a major player. I like the direction of PhotoStructure, but really needed something more mature. Like many, I have tried numerous photo management platforms, and each has strong and weak points. I am grateful that I came across PS and am duly impressed with the excellent work done so far. Currently I am still planning on hosting with my SmugMug account (I still like their terms and conditions better than any other service I’ve come across) but self-hosting would be ideal for me. Ideally I am looking for a public (i.e.: family and friends) facing option for sharing my photos/videos that I can self-host. While I can get used to the syntax, I can see this being very awkward if sharing it with family/friends. Aside from adding geo-location and profile support, it seems to tick the majority of my boxes. Scanning of my photo/video folders has been pretty solid. Its UI could use some improvement but overall it is a viable long term contender.įor PhotoView, my strong appeal is for its UI but otherwise it is on the weaker side. This product is stable and has good performance. I really do like PhotoPrism and a delete feature is available if you become a supporter (I did). It does have a lot of image metrics that are nicely displayed but my biggest concern is performance.
I really want to like LibrePhotos but performance is slow and the product needs a lot of development before I could consider using it long term. On my short list for long term use are PhotoStructure and PhotoPrism. Other products I am currently evaluating include LibrePhotos, PhotoPrism and PhotoView. Map/geo-location would be nice to show all photos/videos that are geo-tagged on a map. They should have view only access at least for the site and ideally by album or other division. Profile support would be handy for sharing PS with friends and family. I have started to use digiKam for my tagging and facial recognition since I can embed the tags very easily into the images.įeatures I would like to see include profile support and map/geo-location. Originally I was also looking for PS to handle face recognition but I concluded that I no longer see this as a “must have” feature for PS.
It allows me to use my existing photo organization structure effectively alongside my other photo/video apps that I am using and evaluating. Overall, PS is a good performer running in Docker on my QNAP NAS (TVS672x). For now, I am limited in using it for curation since I cannot tag for delete/archive. This would make it a great tool to begin macro curation of photo/video collections. PS is fantastic in the way that it presents collections of photos for review. I am truly hopeful for a delete/archive function coming soon. I canceled one of the subscriptions but will subscribe for one year to see where PS goes. I noticed this when I received two notices that I was about to be charged for my subscription. When I signed up for my trial, for some reason I was signed up twice.
REVIEW JALBUM TRIAL
I am coming up on the end of my PS Plus trial and thought I would share my thoughts so far.
