I had a problem updating to the latest install; after a few failed attempts on my part, I sent an email for assistance; although cautioned that it might take a few days to receive a reply, I got an email from Anders within a few hours. The instructions provided were right on point and I was able to successfully update to the latest version. Very much appreciate the quick customer service and am glad to have a paid license!
I've been using various versions of this software for more than a decade. I also use their web hosting service. The software provides a wonderful variety of function, although it can take a while to learn how to exploit it all. That leads to the second point. The customer service is superb--whether to help solve a problem or explain how to accomplish something. I know of *no* other photo album software that can match this one--in either function or service.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience with us. Hoping to have you around for at least another decade:-)
Only that the uploading of new materials has resulted in a hiccup on multiple occasions, which then took HOURS to rebuild all my 12,000 images instead of just the 100 I updated. That's right.
I just let it do it's thing and then all is well. Just my experience. Not all the time either. Go figure.
David and others have tried their best to help me. Something glitchy.
Thanks for sharing Jim. If we can find any pattern in that experience, then we'll likely be able to resolve it once and for all. So far it remains a mystery.
I've been using jAlbum since v12.x.
The consistency of software enhancements by the people at this company have been stellar. Today's v31.1.2 is the quickest to use in every respect.
When contacting the info desk with a question/concern, the response time has always been prompt and appreciated.
While I do very few online reviews, I've no hesitation in saying that the folks at jAlbum have made organizing and posting my images a pleasure.
We're blushing here:-) Thank you Larry!
Starting my 2nd year using jAlbum and didn't hesitate to purchase another year's upgrades and support. Bit of a learning curve, but once I got over that, creating, modifying and updating my albums is a piece of cake. The software I *was* using literally took hours to do updates and sometimes days to create new albums. With jAlbum, updates and changes take minutes and even a brand new, multi-hundred image album, with captions, can be done in a couple hours or less.
Excellent bang for the buck!
Happy to hear that. Thank you for taking time to write this review Kevin!
I build small albums infrequently and I am not a power user. For me, the overall workflow is very smooth and quick. A key for me is the FTP capability. Support has been great. But I have gotten confused choosing image sizes and setting parameters and have had a few do-overs. I am not sure I take full advantage of jAlbum capabilities. I think it comes down to limited documentation and lack of good tutorials and Youtube videos. That is why I gave it 4 stars instead of five.
Thanks for your review. We take note of your suggestions. New YouTube videos are planned.
I'm an amateur photographer. I needed a place to post some of my pictures and videos to share with family and friends. JAlbum software was simply to use to create a website. The price for a Premium Account which includes website hosting was reasonable. The skins included are very good. I would highly recommend jAlbum software!
Thank you Tom for sharing your positive experience with us. Means a lot to us.
I've used jAlbum for a number of projects and find it a pleasure to work with. It is easy to use, flexible and I've gotten great results. I especially like the ability to tag photos and have the tags display in the Tag Cloud that gives users a table of contents.
Thanks for your review Rich. We especially like that you exemplify things you like.
I use this to add a page of photos to my website monthly. JAlbum works very well at this. I would benefit from a way to put for example "page 3 of 5" on each page as an option. It would also help to have a way to take an existing page and amend more photos to it. Right now I do that manually.
Hi Frederick, Please post these questions to our user forum at https://jalbum.net/forum
My needs are rather simple. I'm well pleased with jAlbum and happy with my outcomes!
Happy to hearing this. Thank you Ronald!
I have been a long time user of jAlbum on my own website where I use it to display the photos of my photography trips. It allows me to quickly incorporate my edited photos in an album form that ensures my repeat viewers are familiar with the format. I love it!
Happy to hear that. Thank you for your review and for choosing jAlbum Rick!
With a variety of professional-looking skins, and the ability to create on your local PC (for upload), or to create entirely online, jAlbum provides maximum flexibility. It is easy to use -- and jAlbum provides exactly what I need without viewing clutter, advertisements, or pop-ups. Simple, clean, and reasonably priced. I have been a jAlbum user for over 6 years.
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.
Thank you for taking your time writing this review Gerard. We're so happy that you're so pleased with jAlbum.

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?
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.
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.
Blushing here:-). Thank you Dennis!
Jalbum works seamlessly with your domain and web server. This tool makes making web albums easy. Perfect way to organize and share your year's worth of pics! Endless options so you can display your pics the way you want to!
Well put Lance. Thank you for taking the time to write this review!
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.
Thank you for taking your time to write this review Enos!
I've been using jAlbum for a number of years now and have always been extremely happy with both the product and the customer service and support when I've had questions. The best product available of it's type! Highly recommended!
Thank you Kelly. We're happy to hear this!
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.
Thank you Rene! You spreading the word on jAlbum means a lot to us.
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.
Thank you for taking the time to write this review Warren!
