Pixeria vs Zenfolio

A Zenfolio alternative with selection, pins and approval rounds

Every Zenfolio plan has a website with your own domain, client galleries and proofing; from Professional it adds a store with print labs. Pixeria does fewer things: the client’s selection with pins, rounds of edits and their approval, galleries and a website.

The short answer

Choose Zenfolio if

  • You sell prints and downloads online: Zenfolio’s store works with labs such as Miller’s, Mpix and Bay Photo, with a separate product list for the EU
  • Clients book and pay deposits online: BookMe, included in Advanced
  • You want unlimited space for JPEGs (Advanced)
  • You want a blog next to your website (Professional and Advanced)
  • You shoot sports or schools: QR codes and volume workflows

Choose Pixeria if

  • Clients mark each photo as selected, needs a fix or rejected, and pin a note to the exact spot
  • Edited photos go back to the client for approval, round after round, in the same order
  • You work in Polish: a website in Polish and English, prices in złoty, clients paying you by BLIK or bank transfer
