The Pic-Time Alternative
with Real Video Review
Pic-Time has beautiful gallery designs. But video delivery is limited — clips capped at 3 minutes on lower plans, no timestamped comments, no revision rounds, and video storage is tiny. FrameCourier gives you unlimited video storage, full video review workflow, and professional photo delivery — all in one platform.
Three reasons photographers make the switch
Pic-Time is design-forward and great for photo sales. But its video capabilities lag behind.
Limited video delivery
Pic-Time is built around photo delivery rather than structured video review. If your clients need structured video feedback, FrameCourier has full video review with timestamped comments and revision rounds — just like Frame.io.
Tiny video storage limits
Pic-Time gives you 1GB video on free, 5GB on Beginner, 30GB on Professional, and 60GB on Advanced. FrameCourier includes unlimited video storage on every plan — your 500GB Pro plan stores all your photos and videos without separate caps.
No multi-user clients
Pic-Time doesn't let multiple client-side users log into the same account. FrameCourier supports multi-user clients — so your client's whole team can review, comment, and approve.
More video, less money
Pic-Time's Advanced plan ($42/mo) gives you 60GB video storage. FrameCourier Pro gives you 500GB total with unlimited video — for $7 more.
Video-heavy studio: Pic-Time vs FrameCourier
If you deliver videos to clients regularly, Pic-Time's video caps force you into the most expensive plan — and you still don't get proper video review tools.
Pic-Time vs FrameCourier
Pic-Time excels at gallery design and print sales. FrameCourier matches photo delivery and adds professional video tools.

When your client needs real video feedback
You deliver a mix of portrait galleries and short films. Pic-Time is built for photos, not structured video review.
Portrait photographer who films sessions
Shoot a senior portrait session. Deliver the gallery AND a highlight reel. Your client's parents can leave feedback on the video at specific timestamps — all without leaving the same branded portal.
Brand photographer with video content
Shoot a brand campaign. Deliver final photos, behind-the-scenes clips, and a brand video — all in one portal. Your client's marketing director and CEO each have their own login to review and approve.
Unlimited video, real review tools, beautiful photo galleries.
