Neat, efficient and reliable software
MegadinoDecember 20, 2016
Pros
Easy photo discovery and importation Photo tagging and describing Duplicate Photo Checker Event folder and photo management
Cons
Took me a while to figure out things I don't think the vault option really works
Summary
Phototheca is a cool way to keep tabs on your vast photo collection. It will let you view, organize and do all the basic photo viewing, sharing and use (like setting as desktop background) from within the app. This is what it was designed to do and it does it perfectly. If only it had a tutorial to make life simpler for first time users!

Pros
I did not use it.
Cons
It wanted me to download something to make it work, but did not tell where I could find it. I don't like to have to download a lot.

Cons
1. It crashes sometimes on my computer but it seems that the team works on fixes continually. So I'm pretty sure it will work much better in future. 2. There's no print peature yet.
