Pixeria vs Picdrop

A Picdrop alternative with print orders and a website next to your galleries

Picdrop is a German service for sharing and proofing photos: color flags, likes, comments and drawings on the photo, file versions, servers in Germany. It sells nothing and builds no websites. Pixeria does fewer things for proofing and adds what Picdrop leaves out: the client’s selection with pins, rounds of edits and their approval, print orders and a website.

The short answer

Choose Picdrop if

  • Your data should stay in Germany: Picdrop’s servers are there, with a data processing agreement to sign in your account
  • You work in a team or an agency: roles and up to 9 seats on Business
  • You need more than 250 GB: Pro has 500 GB, Business 3 TB
  • Your clients need galleries in German, Spanish, Italian or French
  • Photos go from the camera straight into a gallery while you shoot (Live Push)

Choose Pixeria if

  • Clients order prints and packages in the gallery: Picdrop sells nothing
  • You want a website with templates next to your galleries
  • Edited photos go back to the client for approval, round after round, in the same order
  • Watermark on every plan, the cheapest one too
  • You work in Polish: a website in Polish and English, prices in złoty, clients paying you by BLIK or bank transfer
