Do you have many photos stored on your PC, and you don't know how to organize them or waste too much time trying to find the ones that interest you? Then you should download an application that will give you a hand in this regard. There are many attractive ones in this field, but jAlbum is undoubtedly one of the most complete, so let's show you its features.

JAlbum is a multiplatform application, paid but with the trial version, which has been developed from Java, and thanks to which you can organize all the pictures you want from albums, as its name suggests. Once you have done this, access to these contents will be much easier, considering that you can view the images from any web browser and, therefore, from any computer.

How it works

As a jAlbum user, you can choose whether to upload the albums to a private or public server that is part of this application, although access is equally easy in both cases. We liked this tool because we can adapt the appearance of theGalleries to our liking since we have skins or skins available to select the ones we like the most.

jAlbum also has a filter section that you can place over your images individually to modify their appearance. If you work with photos you have taken yourself and don't want anyone to steal them, you can always add watermarks or a logo, so everyone will know they belong to you. You can even generate a shopping cart of your images to sell them, avoiding intermediaries.

JAlbum also allows us to work with the metadata that is part of EXIF, considering that we can modify them or if we prefer to extract them to have them at hand. As the action is done through a specific function, you will not have to carry it out alone, saving time.

If you want to directly print the photos you have in an album, with jAlbum, you will be able to do it in just a second since it can synchronize with the printer you have at hand, again avoiding that you have to use other programs. At this point, we must say that this is a perfect utility for those who want to manage their image library differently.

With this software, you can also modify the resolution or size of the images in batches, ensuring that you will get them all adapted to the type of file you are looking for with a specific objective in just a few seconds.

We found the user interface to be the best in its field. It is beautiful, intuitive, and fully translated into another language, making it comfortable even for those just starting to use these services. Please do not lose sight of the fact that, as we mentioned during the review, it is a platform that can be customized thanks to our many available plugins.

Keep in mind

As we mentioned at the beginning, jAlbum is not a free application but a paid one; however, we will be able to test it on our computers for a reasonable period before analyzing whether we want to purchase it. Besides that, you must consider that you must register on their website, which will create a profile of your membership in which you can upload the images you want to work with.

The best

If we were to dwell on some of the main strengths of the software, then we would have to talk about its remarkable ability to adapt to the varied needs that different types of users may have. Its power in this regard is almost unrivaled. Then, in particular, we are left with elements such as filters and watermark additions.

The worst

The only negative aspect shown in this first approach to its tools is that it is a paid service, not a free one. Anyway, we rarely consider that it is worth paying for it because it fulfills all aspects which we could pretend it.

Rating

It is one of the best programs that we have available today for the management of our photo library, a utility thanks to which we will be able to order the images, protect them from thieves, sell them, apply filters, modify their resolution, or size, and even upload them to a server to access them from anywhere.
