Its centre of gravity is the client gallery: the moment a photographer hands over a finished shoot. DELIVERY AND GALLERIES Photographers upload photo and video sets and publish them as private, password-protected galleries carrying their own branding. Clients browse, mark favourites, approve selections and download. Selection galleries, direct-download galleries, sample galleries, multimedia galleries and multi-session galleries are all supported, along with automatic reminders when a client has not yet opened or downloaded a gallery. AI IMAGE RECOGNITION Facial recognition and race-bib recognition tag images automatically. On large events such as races, school days or communions, an attendee searches a set of several thousand photographs and retrieves only the ones they appear in, without the photographer sorting anything by hand. SELLING WITHOUT COMMISSION An online store sits inside the gallery and sells digital files, prints and products. Arcadina charges no commission on any sale at any plan level. Coupons, discounts, watermarking and image protection are included. RUNNING THE STUDIO Online session booking with payment, seasonal campaign calendars for periods such as communions, Christmas or pet sessions, automatic payment reminders, contracts sent for electronic signature, and invoicing. WEB PRESENCE A portfolio website with designs built for photographers, an SEO-oriented blog, commercial landing pages, custom domain, free SSL, and embedded Instagram feeds and Google reviews. Plans are independent and can be bought separately or bundled as Suite Arcadina. Founded in Valencia, Spain in 2012; available in English, Spanish and Italian. 14-day free trial, no credit card required. > > Verdict: Rated **5.0/5** by 3 users.

También las plantillas para armar la web: el hecho de poderlo gestionar todo por mi cuenta es una de las mejores funciones. El blog también me encanta, me da muchas posibilidades para comunicarme con mi comunidad. Además, me encanta que sea en español. > > **Cons**: Una desventaja podría ser que hasta conocer bien el ambiente gráfico es un poco difícil encontrar algunas funciones. Superado este pequeño inconveniente, no le veo otra desventaja. > > Mi experiencia desde 2017 en que soy usuaria de Arcadina ha sido siempre la más satisfactoria. Desde la posibilidad de auto gestionar todo lo que corresponde a mi web, pasando por las funciones de booking y ventas, hasta de la facilidad de manejo. Otra maravillosa virtud de Arcadina es el equipo humano detrás de la parte digital: todo el tiempo están dispuestos a ayudar, sin importar la diferencia horaria, encuentran la solución y se comunican con el cliente de manera personal. ----- ### "Funcionalidad" — 5.0/5 > **Joan** | *14 September 2020* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Lo que mas me ha gustado es que es un software fácil de utilizar y con una gran variedad de opciones para poder gestionar tu contenido fotográfico. > > **Cons**: Lo que menos me ha gustado es que la interfaz se ha quedado un poco obsoleta en comparación con competidores suyos y que por mucho planes de pago que haya nunca consigues eliminar los logos y marcas de agua de la compañía. > > En general mi experiencia con Arcadina a sido muy buena ya que no ha habido ninguna complicación técnica. ----- ### "La web que todo fotógrafo necesita" — 5.0/5 > **Fran** | *29 July 2026* | Photography | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Lo que más valoro de Arcadina es la tranquilidad que me da. Sé que puedo enseñar mi trabajo con una imagen profesional, entregar las galerías a mis clientes de una forma cómoda y gestionar la venta de fotografías sin complicaciones. Es una herramienta pensada para fotógrafos, y eso se nota en el día a día. > > **Cons**: Echo de menos un poco más de flexibilidad a la hora de personalizar algunos detalles del diseño. La plataforma funciona muy bien y es fácil de usar, pero siempre hay pequeños aspectos estéticos que a los fotógrafos nos gusta adaptar un poco más a nuestra forma de trabajar. > > Arcadina me ha dado justo lo que buscaba: una herramienta que me permite dedicar más tiempo a fotografiar y menos a gestionar una web. Todo está pensado para fotógrafos y eso se nota. Mis clientes encuentran una experiencia sencilla y profesional, y yo tengo la tranquilidad de saber que mi trabajo está bien presentado y bien organizado. ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/469092/Arcadina) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
