Pixalys vs WeTransfer

Pixalys vs WeTransfer

WeTransfer is for sending large files. Pixalys is for delivering a shoot: gallery, client access, favorites and the work that follows.

  • The client browses a gallery, not a file list.
  • Password and expiration are available from Pro.
  • The shop and studio documents stay tied to the delivery.

And WeTransfer?

Storage, modules and public prices are whatever WeTransfer shows on their own site. This page does not copy them.

When WeTransfer still fits

  • File transfer by link. Duration and size depend on the WeTransfer plan.
  • It is not a photographer website or a quotes and contracts tool.

What the 15-day trial lets you check

  • Share a gallery with your own photos.
  • Ask Pixel for a quote or an invoice, then read the document before sending it.
  • Try online booking, available from Pro.
