## Reviews

### "Do not recommend" — 1.0/5

> **Stephanie** | *October 20, 2024* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It stores photos for clients to download, very standard like every other gallery software.
> 
> **Cons**: Horrific customer service, no solutions to IT issues, no sales reps or account managers at the company .. the packages are confusing for buyers \& they don’t seem like a legit company, even when you look them up. I had billing discrepancies and when I inquired they shut my account down and told me after the fact, instead of discussing solutions or offering any customer service whatsoever. They are also unverified with google which raises major red flags as google only verified legitimate businesses.
> 
> Not good. Not a good platform for established legitimate businesses that need CRM solutions, there is nobody on their end to truly help with anything.

### "Great Product, Terrible Support" — 3.0/5

> **Kelly** | *October 16, 2024* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Excellent interface. Web site and galleries easy to create and modify.
> 
> **Cons**: My business card was not accepted. Checked with bank, everthing was OK, should have worked. Used it elsewhere, refused by Lightfolio. Contacted them, finally got a response, was "it should have worked, must be the bank". No help. When asking for support on the chat, if I ever get a response, it's at least half an hour. Most of the time I get no response. Sent many email messages, never got a response. Support is terrible.
> 
> Love the product. Support is horrible. Very easy to create and modify web site and galleries. Love mini-session, worked great for my mini-session. Support is awful, though.

### "Payment without upgrade" — 1.0/5

> **Aleksandra** | *January 25, 2025* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use
Have everything a photographer needs
> 
> **Cons**: I payed for the website and I didn’t get the plan
> 
> I was enjoying lightfolio for free and I was working on my website. I wanted to make it more professional so I paid $14 for a website and nothing happened. They took the money and doesn’t upgrade my plan. I already sent emails and messages but nobody answered. Lightfolio is scam\! Even the chat or the help section doesn’t work\! I spent so many hours editing my website and I wanted to make it work better, but no\! They are cheaters\!

### "Great way to share your gallery" — 5.0/5

> **James** | *June 15, 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Tool that has the facility to store the gallery. Once uploaded, access is guaranteed to all users very easily and conveniently. The possibility of customizing more personalized solutions for potential customers.
> 
> **Cons**: Some delay to catalog certain photos. I had problems at the beginning with my browser, after I used another one, it works normally.
> 
> Great tool, it made direct communication with our customers much easier, showing all our galleries at once

-----

### "Weekly usage for photography and storing photos" — 5.0/5

> **Michelle** | *August 13, 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Our church photography and production teams both use this weekly. I like that media is stored easily and accessible to everyone in the cloud. Photographers can snap their shots, and then we can pull photos , add graphics, implement into their software to create slides or whatever is needed
> 
> **Cons**: I dislike that it doesn’t always allow us to create folders inside folders to better categorize things. When you have thousands of photos , it is kind of important to offer more customization.
> 
> I say this is a decent product. The pricing isn’t bad either. Storage space is good as well.
