A website is never done. It’s an iterative process that grows and adapts with your business. Our platform evolves too! We are continuing to work on enhancements and new features for photographers. Here is a summary of new releases in March 2023.

It’s now easier than ever to use the PhotoBiz Scheduler to book mini sessions and manage your mini session schedule! We released enhancements to how you can set up and offer custom services (with mini sessions in mind), plus an enhanced calendar view for you and your clients. 

We launched a new website this month – our own! Photobiz.com is now built on our own platform. For the past 20+ years, our goal has been and still is to make it easy and stress-free for you to build and manage your website. Over time we’ve added new tools and features to the platform, including powerful client galleries and a versatile studio management suite.

We are proud to say that we use all the tools ourselves! Our website is now powered by our very own PhotoBiz 9 platform. We send marketing emails with our email campaigns builder, our blog, yup, you guessed it … is a PhotoBiz Blog, and we share design concepts with our Pro Services clients using client galleries. Look around our new website, and reach out to our Passionate Support® team for help with your website and your business.

We have used Rackspace DNS service for many years, but now, it is time to take our DNS infrastructure to a higher level. That is why we have decided to upgrade our DNS platform to Amazon Route 53. You can now migrate your DNS from Rackspace to Amazon Route 53 DNS with a few clicks in your account. This is a FREE upgrade available to you. Our system will walk you through the switch (and you can always call us for support). The benefits of upgrading to Amazon Route 53 DNS include scalability, reliability, and speed.

There is a new way to see new form submissions and orders in your account. This month, we released a “NEW” flag that appears on orders and form submissions in their respective areas within the control panel. This flag will help alert you to what’s new since you last visited. You can also continue to use the notifications area of your account to see new orders and form submissions together. (Do you think we used new enough times in one paragraph?).

If you have ideas for future enhancements, we’d love to hear them. Submit a feature request.
