I liked the platform a lot. It's excellent for creating galleries for clients or for setting up your own stock library.

Pros

Extremely easy to use with a lot of great templates to work with. The platform seems most applicable to commercial photographers. The store functionality was good too, in terms of print sales - I believe it can easily set up to work with a third-party printing vendor. Customer service was responsive and helpful.

Cons

The cost isn't unreasonable for all the features you get, I simply wasn't using all the features so the cost didn't make sense for me.
