There is so much about Swift Galleries that prompted me to stick with them. Such as: Easy to learn A great way to keep track of client/appointments Allows you to insert your own slideshow Creates easy to read receipts - and automatically emails it to the client Helps create a seamless transition from reveal to order purchases Provides beautiful room templates to show off wall art Has the ability to take credit card information and process the transaction for you There are step by step tutorials provided to help learn how to use everything. Allows you to log in on any device/wherever you are because it's all online, instead of being a program that's downloaded to a certain desktop/laptop.

There is no way at this moment to customize the receipt that the client receives. While it does provide a basic slideshow through it, there's no way to set music to it (but it does make up for this by allowing you to upload your own slideshow instead).

Overall, I am enjoying using Swift Galleries. I love that I can sign in on any device no matter where I'm at. This allows for much more freedom and less worry on whether or not my client can come to me. I love that there are a tone of tutorials and that you're walked through step by step on how to use Swift Galleries and how to make that sale. I love that the Owners are involved and continuously strive to make it better and address their clients feedback. I also love that if you have a question, they are prompt in answering it and will work with you until you have it down.

It addresses the WHOLE process of in person sales while also eliminating the need for investing in as many samples (or any at all). The print maker system has so many educational resources as well as tips and templates that have benefitted my business beyond just sales. I've never seen a product or tool for photographers made by photographers that was this helpful, intuitive and effective! I'm a total fan!

Drawbacks:

I don't think there's anything that I dislike, honestly.

All I've done is pay for it! I bought it when it was just for spec'ing my images on client walls. Now I just a "sponsor!" Foolish. I need to use it or stop paying for as I assume I'll not get any money back.

It may duplicate what I already have w/17Hats. I started paying annually for Swift 5+ yrs ago because they had a great deal to lock in the price. Then I started w/17Hats.

Summary:

Unknown. Need to talk with Support/Sales and use Swift of stop paying for it. IK, it's obvious.

Showing clients their images on their walls always impresses them and makes my job so much easier. The order export kees things quick and simple for me to place the order with my lab, with any additional touch ups I see fit.

The fact it is all on the web slows it down a lot. Takes awhile to upload a client's image if wifi isn't too good. I don't like how you can't save to suggestions during an ordering session, you have to add it to the cart.
