Hi Guys,

Looking to move over to Light Blue Photo, from using Bento which is good but slowing down and not got a very good 'you forgot to e-mail this customer' reminder feature which of course Light Blue does.

Really just looking for a few hands-on experiences in the long term of using it?

I've heard the e-commerce side needs a bit of tweaking but i'm using JAlbum so that's not an issue really, just wondering how it helps with workflow etc?

is it really worth the £300?

thanks

I have had a play with the trial and like it - to be honest I have not heard a bad word against it and know a few that use it, also had a chat with the guys at Focus last year and they were cool and instilled good confidence. In fact why have I not bought it yet ? Right off to the Light Blue site !

Cheers

cheeky but is there any discounts floating around for it, i know there have been in the past :/

I keep thinking about it, should do really, as I have various excel sheets floating about and if asked about customers this year would have no chance!

I've been using it for a year now. It is more geared towards wedding/portrait photographers rather than the work I do. Too many clicks but I'm stuck with it for now. It's gone up on price in a year too I see.

See i'm exactly that, a wedding & portrait and sometimes school photographer so I guess it would work for me, i'm going to give it a go this week and see how it goes when used 100%

I'm torn though as for £300 I could also majorly upgrade my MacBook to 1TB and 8GB of RAM to really pep it up :/ hmmm

There is a free trial which is fully working and if you decide to buy all your data is kept intact.

Too expensive for me, although it does look good.

It is now - I'm sure I paid £240 a year ago!
