I don’t know about other’s experience but I found this program to be just what I need for my photos. The bulk processing works well - I’ve done over 25 photos at once with no problem. Highly recommend it to those with enough savvy to use it correctly.
The app is really good. Whathermarker photos (in lot) isn’t so easy! / O aplicativo é muito bom. Colocar marca d’água em uma foto (ou em lote) nunca foi tão fácil!
I have used this app for a while and now writing a review. At first I just jumped into this app and quickly realize I needed to figure a couple of things out. For as easy as it really is, I still needed a little Photobulk schooling and that made all the difference. ***FYI - One thing I QUICKLY realized is that it was hit or miss on dragging photos directly from iPhoto. Some would go and some would not. If you were dragging multiple photos to drop and one photo unbeknownst to you had an issue the entire group would not go. This issue I admit was EXTREMELY frustrating, you had to review and try each photo to find "the trouble maker" which was time consuming and maddening. To this day I still do not know why this issue occurs. I wised up and stopped pulling from iPhoto and started exporting. ***Once you EXPORT you are golden! No issues. I can drop 30 or more photos and it is a go. I love the options they provide especially the font, sizing and placement (wherever on the picture you want). When I wanted to do a vertical placement that took a few tries but I figured it out too. This is what is great with this app, you hit a MINOR bump in the road but the app/software is not so challenging that you cannot get around it to figure out the right way. I do highly recommend this app for its ease of use. My 4 star rating is because there is always room to improve, like let me drag from iPhoto with no issues.
Works quickly, love the drag and drop one step
This is the best program for resizing, watermarking, and renaming ANYWHERE. You need to get this program. I usually dont write reviews, but I feel so strongly about this one that I had to let others know. I know what you are looking for and you are wondering if this is the right one, you will finally be please with this purchase.
First, don’t bother trying the “free demo”: it only works for ONE image at a time and doesn’t allow you to explore all of the app’s features. I tried the demo and thought the app looked good, but key features can’t be tried in the demo. At first I was extremely disappointed with this app. Their Internet-based help pages offer minimal help. My problem turns out to be caused by the app’s odd user interface, which is unlike other watermarking applications I’ve tried. It took several rounds of interaction with their support people (EXCELLENT support) for me to understand how to proportionally scale watermarks for a batch of images and do some other operations. There is pop-up help on most buttons, but it’s not totally helpful. Because of the poor documentation and a missing feature, I’ll rate this 4 stars. Now that I understand (again, thanks to their tech support) how the program works, I’ll use it regularly. It’s definitely worth the price and it definitely works for batch processing and has good flexibility.
Great little app for watermarking images to upload to the web. We show online proofs to clients and liked to watermark them in a variety of ways. Just purchased and within 5 minutes created presets. Can’t wait to explore it more. Love it!
Not only the fasted, but the best in it class...
After the program does its magic (which does indeed work well), your photos are now dated as the current day. This is a real bummer—not sure if there is anything they can do, but it would be a big improvement if the default behavior was to retain the creation date of the file.
I thought this app would give me some convenience to use it….I had to listen what other reveiwers left here… Very disapointing…It seems easy but no useful function for the price…..feels like free app….wasting $ 8…. Is it possible to get a refund since it’s only been 5 mins after purchase…. To use these photos, I have to bring cropped photos and only fuction here is watermarking…that’s it..
but I would like to have more text options, like shadow AND the ability to add a caption or title would be really nice. All in all, very simple and easy to use.
I had previously created a workflow that allowed me to sort, rename and compress my photos, but with one of the OS upgrades the compress feature went away. So I started looking for an app that would do these things. The only feature that Photobulk lacked that I needed was the ability to sort the files I drop into it into cronological order. I still have to do that with a work flow I already have. But if you want the files compressed and renamed it does it quickly and without any hickups. I have only used the watermark feature a few times, but it also worked without much effort and was very effective. I have drag and dropped hundreds of photos into the app, obviously the more you drop the longer it takes to finish, and it has produced the results I was looking for each and every time. I shoot more than one camera at a time and like to sort my photos into the order I shoot them to tell the story properly. This app is well worth what I paid for it. Would love to see a sort feature added. I read the reviews before I purchased it and haven’t found any of the problems that other report.
Works flawlessly. After adjusting 1000’s of photo’s I’ve never had an issue. Highly recommended.
I added 86 files into PhotoBulk and selected the resize tool, then set to resize by max width of 350px. It ran and saved all the new files to a folder. They were all smaller than their originals but still not down to 350x___px. In fact, I don’t think any of them have a width or height of 350px. Simply does not work. The other reviews here must be out of date or fake. Shocked that it could not complete such a simple task!!! Very frustrated. Don’t waste your money. Preview can resize photos for you and it’s free.
Excellent works perfect thats all that needs to be said
When you take an average of 300 -500 Photos per gig, you do not want to spend hours in Prep.
Great Little app Has saved me tons of time.
I have been using this for my blog and it has been so helpful and has made my life so much easier. reliable, and great.
I use this great little app several times a week in my photo business to optimize images for upload and resize to two different sizes for submission - nothing else is as fast, reliable, and easy to use.
