GBTheir archiving process is a disaster… My website hosted by Zenfolio right now is broken all over the place: galeries disappeared, collections broken, most of my blog posts lost their pictures and are now empty! I tried to "restore" all of the galleries with blog images more than 1 week ago, and the pictures are still missing! When this was going to be implemented, we were promised that all pictures used in blog and active galleries would not be archived, well that was apparently not true. We were told that galleries could be retrieved within 12 to 24 hours... another lie, it takes weeks, if it ever happens!!! Whoever came up with this didn't not really understand how photographers do business. The archiving process should ONLY archive galleries/pictures which haven't been accessed (viewed) by a customer for more than 2 years. The current implementation is completely stupid, I bet most photographers on Zenfolio are now are trying to unarchive archived galleries because: #1 their website is broken #2 customers can't access their galleries That's sad because I have been with Zenfolio for more than 14 years, and I won't renew with them after this fiasco.

GBMade me look like an idiot I have had a photography site with Zenfolio for some years. These days it loads slowly (glacially if using a VPN). Yesterday, after making a substantial effort to update my contact list I sent a group email out, linking to the site. I was horrified when one person replied to tell me that half the photos weren't showing. It turns out that Zenfolio archived half of my galleries. I can't put a price on lost business. This year I really must make the effort to find a new provider.

GBSomething is really not right with… Something is really not right with Zenfolio It used to be good but not now Galleries that could be viewed now can’t As a professional photographer who pays good money it’s just not good enough

GBWith them for more than a decade, just gets worse. With them for more than a decade - top pkg. I don't remember any improvements ever. Very disappointed in the outdated cart. The latest "archiving" scheme is being implemented without actually testing - and the fails are here. The support is non-existent.

GBA great product Having used Zenfolio a few years ago, but not enjoying the experience I was a bit reluctant to look at them again for my new website. However the new platform really impressed me, and I've been very happy with the service over the last few months and ended up paying for a subscription when my free trial finished. The product isn't perfect, but better than the alternatives for my requirements. I've also found their support team to be really helpful and responsive, and I'm confident that they will work to keep improving the product based on customer feedback.
