Comparison
Relivo vs traditional online galleries
Relivo is best when attendees should not have to scroll a dump of thousands of photos. Traditional online galleries may be better when you only need a public album, a photographer portfolio, or a simple link you do not intend to personalize.

Side by side
Relivo is best when attendees should not have to scroll a dump of thousands of photos. Traditional online galleries may be better when you only need a public album, a photographer portfolio, or a simple link you do not intend to personalize.
The failure mode of the bulk album
A shared album technically delivers files. It asks every guest to do the work: scroll, search, give up. That is why organizers still get 'can you send me my photos?' a week later.
Which one should you choose?
Use a traditional gallery when the audience is small and everyone is willing to browse. Use Relivo when the audience is large, privacy matters, or you need the photos to create measurable engagement.
