When we had to change the university's existing photo library solution in a hurry, Piwigo seemed a good compromise. We needed a solution that was quick and easy to set up, enabling us to technically manage a large image database with indexing, metadata management and search capabilities akin to an EDM or DAM solution, a real publishing and sharing interface with access rights management, operational interfacing with the school's information system and seamless integration into my Lightroom workflow. After two years, Piwigo has given us a great deal of satisfaction, far beyond the transitional solution we expected. Although the DAM functions still need to be enhanced, the flexibility provided by the customization and plug-in system and the open source development mode make it a scalable, adaptable and robust solution, capable of elegantly covering the essentials.

Our sports club has been using Piwigo since the end of 2014 and we are very happy with it. We have replaced another software that was much more complicated to use. Our photo archive has become an indispensable part of our club life, as it allows us to make pictures of sporting events available to members. It is particularly important that we can regulate the authorization and thus the access to the photos very well via groups and that the various members only have access to events for which they are authorized. This is super easy to manage by dividing the system into different albums. The system is always available, easy to use after a short training period and self-explanatory in many places. As far as service is concerned, I have to say that in the past almost all problems and queries have been solved quickly and easily. I am very happy to recommend Piwigo.

Piwigo is easy to install and get to grips with. The plugins enable fine-tuning of the gallery with fairly advanced features, such as automatic classification of photos according to tags or user rights management. And of course, it's an open source solution... I'm so satisfied with Piwigo that I regularly suggest this solution to my customers to create their professional photo galleries or photo libraries!
