Picaboo has built a reputation for itself the last several years with its fun and innovative digital scrapbooking software, which allows users to quickly build scrapbooks and photo books using themed or custom templates with additional tools for photo placement and editing readily available.
However, despite boasting some interesting design applications and tools, Picaboo has a limited amount of binding and sizing options, greatly restraining the potential of your photo book.
Picaboo is a cut above many photo book publishers for its photo book design software.
Unfortunately, most distinctive qualities end there, with finished products being only average at best.
Picaboo photo books are available in two sizes, 11”x8.5” and 8”x6.”
Both photo book sizes come in hardbound and softbound settings, with leather, graphic and photo covers available.
Picaboo is fairly easy to use and the tools and applications are well placed and easy to understand.
Picaboo’s website is fairly simple, with pricing, shipping, design ideas and help and support conveniently located within the website.
For its design software, Picaboo is very distinctive, providing for effortless and intuitive design of unique photo books.
However, with only mediocre photo development and binding, there is little that makes Picaboo stand out.
Picaboo covers all bases with its help and support section, offering assistance through its FAQ section and knowledge base. Assistance can also be obtained through email.
With such a strong software program, it is a shame that Picaboo has yet to develop its publication features, including binding and sizing, to meet this potential.
With just a few more sizing options and a stronger emphasis on quality publication, Picaboo is likely to rise to the top and stay there. But for now, stick to our top-rated products, Viovio, Shutterfly and Polaroid My Memories Suite.
