Maintain personal Website with jAlbum
April 5, 2023

I have been using jAlbum for several years now to maintain my personal family website and I am very pleased with its expansive functionality, ease of use and performance. I have researched several others and find jAlbum to be superior in functionality for the price. I highly recommend it.

Excellent product, just keeps getting better.
November 16, 2023
Updated review

I'm very pleased with jAlbum on my iMac. I've been using it to compile annual albums of the plants and flowers in my garden for several years, and it really makes the project simple. The service is outstanding -- questions are answered promptly and the staff has been most helpful. Now if Apple would only put its comments, captions, etc into the standard format for metadata, all would be well. As it is, I use MetaImage to edit all of that stuff before running jAlbum, and it puts everything in the right places.

We're happy to hear this. Thank you for explaining how you use jAlbum and about this metadata hint as well. Yes, wouldn't it be good if all IT companies avoided lock-in, like jAlbum, by using open formats?


JAlbum does the job well!

Previous review

I've been using jAlbum for years and just in the last couple of years have started uploading my albums to your servers. The process works flawlessly and easily, so kudos are in order there. JAlbum itself works great -- it would be even better if Apple stored titles, captions, and comments in EXIF like everyone else, but they don't. So I use a third party app (Metaimage) to get the data into EXIF where jAlbum can extract it effortlessly and use it in building the albums. Overall, I'm very pleased with both the jAlbum app which has gotten consistently better and faster over the years, and with the service and technical help I've gotten.

Nothing Else Like It
July 23, 2023

I have never found another application that is more suited to publishing your photos for the web. Easy and intuitive to use. Provides the freedom to change styles to suit your needs or design your own.

Quick and (not so) dirty
May 19, 2024

I finally upgraded to the latest version and am really happy I did. A great program to put photographs and videos, with music, on the web in minutes. I can open the program, add photos, add music, and put it online for my family in less than 10 minutes. Highly recommended...

My Introduction to Website Creation
January 9, 2024

I used jAlbum to build my first website and it was very user friendly. I have also used it as a repository for photo projects that I have used on other sites. JAlbum has allowed me to catalog my photos and apply copyright notices. It continues to be a valuable tool for me.

The Frog

I have been using jAlbum for 23 years. I like the way I am able to create one-of-a-kind albums, as well as organizing my photographs within the album. I am very pleased with jAlbum and will continue to use the product, as well as recommend the product to others.

Difficult to learn
December 5, 2023

I find the jAlbum interface and structure difficult to learn. It takes a lot of time to figure it out. Creating a gallery structure and getting photos into it should not be difficult, especially when trying to avoid duplicate uploads. Some of teh terminology is odd.

That's saddening to hear, but I value your comments. What the few negative people fail to explain is specifically what they find hard. It's sadly always sweeping terms. If you could detail more specifically what words and user interface parts you've found confusing in an email to us at support@jalbum.net then we promise that we will read it carefully!

Jalbum Hits a Home Run
June 8, 2023

I am the president of a community band and have a large portfolio of videos of our concerts. I had an issue of the titles disappearing from the videos once the portfolio was generated. Within a day they were able to update the software and I was able to make a very handsome portfolio. They also helped me with a server to host my portfolio.

I use jAlbum as my way to build and share collections of my 50 years of photography.
(I used my slow but terrific Nikon slide scanner to high-res digitize mountains of slides and negatives!)
Example? See https://www.dragon-and-lion.com/FranceSlidesMap/ [please see if you wish but DO NOT PUBLISH, thank you!). (For this photo series -- I built a simple one-page "website" -- having URL links to various JAlbum slide shows up on my domain.) Love the ability to display my carefully created "file names" as explanatory legends for each image. JAlbum program is solid, non-buggy and fun to use. Thank you!

Super easy to renew and get updates
March 22, 2023

I've been using jAlbum for quite a while, I can't say I use it every year, but I keep current, and when I do use it, I tend to do a big complex project and then leave it alone for some time...

Does what it says it does and pretty damn well too!
