What do you like best about Photoswipe?

That I can remove all the unwanted things from my picture. That will allow me to edit any picture as the way I need it and according to my wish. This will make my life easier by letting you edit the previous pictures that you use for other purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Photoswipe?

As per not the only thing that I dislike about this product is that it takes time to edit a picture however I assume that it is what is with all the photo editing tools. Definitely not time consuming as Photoshop. However it takes time cause you will have to mix and match with the colors and other stuff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Photoswipe?

Photoswipe I've used for light touch-ups before I had Adobe products. You can make photos zoom and add arrows into it that make your photos a unique experience that can look professional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Photoswipe?

At times the product offerings such as zoom can get tacky if done wrong. It looks at times that it might not look professional and used for down and dirty photo tricks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Photoswipe:

When using this software is extremely simple as long as you give it about 5 minutes learning the formatting and export styles for photos. Just make sure you give it time to learn about the product before you just jump in using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Photoswipe solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was solving giving photos a zoom and navigation tool for websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Photoswipe?

I enjoyed that photoswipe offers a simple tool to use. It is very practical for your business or personal websites. You are able to edit the images you want, which is very straight forward. It makes really nice image slideshows to promote content on a page. I like how it can also be used with social media and it can be shared. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Photoswipe?

I do not like the way the website is set up. For being an image website they should really work on their image. The program can also get a little slow , maybe update it to make it smoother or fast passed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Photoswipe?

One of the important things that I look for in a software is a “user friendly” interface. And this one is perfect talking about that (touch gestures included).

I am a little OCD, and PhotoSwipe it's great when it comes to organize and keep a clean library. This is what I always try to achieve as it makes the whole computer to work faster and lightly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Photoswipe?

For me it was easy enough to learn how to use it. The only bad or not so good thing about PhotoSwipe is that it gets cranky when you try to use it with different plugins. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Photoswipe solving and how is that benefiting you?

I’m a designer/photographer. So I use it for a lot of things, the most important one being: the organisation of each project. It lets you add a caption for each photo, customise how the library that you are working on will look. Just this spares me a lot of time! Totally worth it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Photoswipe?

I love using Photoswipe. There are a few "best" things. The first being that the interface is one of the most customizable one's that I have come across. You can add or delete almost anything that you'd like to get the look and feel that you want for your library. Another great thing about photo swipe is that it doesn't load all of your images at one time. It uses its own technology to track the users movements and only loads the images that are nearest to them hence making a SUPER fast loading experience and no slow down for the user. I love that! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Photoswipe?

Photosipe should only be used for high quality images. There is no need to zoom in on low quality ones so this software wouldn't cater to a library of let's say android photos. It does limit it's audience in this way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Photoswipe:

Make sure to only upload high quality images with good resolution or your experience using photo swipe may be compromised. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Photoswipe solving and how is that benefiting you?

Photoswipe makes it easy for anyone to navigate and to create a beautiful, fluid space for photos. Having such a library has been very helpful to me when sharing work with others and potential clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Photoswipe?

I'm a pretty fast learner, and pretty good with IT, but this takes a little too much of my time to implement then I'd like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Photoswipe:

Personally, it wasn't much of what I was expecting. It's a bit complicated, and quite frankly was taking too much of my time to try and implement. I am sure for what its meant to be used for, its great. It just wasn't necessarily what I needed as a photographer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can get a little tricky if you're not great with JavaScript. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Photoswipe solving and how is that benefiting you?

So many photography websites are clunky and look unprofessional unless you pay a lot out of pocket for a premium click-and-drag page. Photoswipe solves this problem! With a little time, your website gallery can be so enticing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
