Everpix was one of the best $5/month I spent. I would have been willing to spend far more for their services. I wish they would have tried to bump the price up to save the service. Having one place for all my photos made me exceptionally happy. Even my wife absolutely loved Everpix. I guess I need to find an alternative... what are they?

Re: Everpix is Shutting Down
#12I really liked Everpix as a "fire and forget" method for backing up my photos. It's a shame they're shutting down.
As an alternative I'll probably switch to Dropbox, who have been improving their 'photo upload' features, one of which is the ability to automatically upload from iPhoto (similar to how Everpix did it).
One of my favourite features in Everpix was the "1 year ago today" emails they sent, which picked a few random photos from a year ago and dropped them in my inbox. That was a really nice touch.

#13As someone who had 10,000+ photos in the service and was recommending Everpix to everyone I'm pretty sad. Really was set and forget software, used it regularly to dig out photos and share with others. Super sad that it's going away, hopefully I can find another service which is half as good

Will just say for anyone that never used Everpix that flickr, zenfolio and smugmug don't really do the same job. Yes they all host photos, but the whole point is that it's an automated process, imports from multiple sources and does magic like de-duplication.

#15I can't help but think that their reliance on (very expensive) Amazon Web Services played a part in their collapse. It looks like they also failed to grow enough, but it should have been possible to sustain a paying service.

#16just started using them, the platform was actually really interesting and well developed. sad to see them go...

#17Eventually "growth hacking" is going to be replaced by "sustainable business plan hacking".

One of the key features of Everpix was the "set and forget" capability. Also their dupe-detection was really good.
Do any of those do that? I guess Dropbox is the most established... I'd hate to be in this same situation in a year from now with Loom...

#19Very sad news to hear. Best of luck to everyone on the team.
Re: Everpix is Shutting Down
#20I tried them for about 3 months, was not a bad service. I had some issues with the methods in which they allowed for navigation of photos and how easy (or hard) it was to find a specific photo in a large collection. I ended up going back to Flickr. That being said, the display UI was great and I had hoped to see them pressuring other sites in the same space. Good luck to the team in whatever they decide to work on next.
