Managing Your Photos with


Image Database

Software

Managing a large collection of digital images using the tools built into
most operating systems can be hard work. Dedicated image database
software is more efficient and can be used to perform precisely defined
image searches, and some programs even offer geotagging and face
recognition functionality. Databases can also manage content spread over
local, remote and online storage media. This article explains how to choose
the right software and tests eight image databases, including a multi-user
pro-grade model, commercial single-user products and freeware with a
cloud interface. It’s all here for you to enjoy!
