In most cases, Pixoroo charges 10% of a salon/circuit income. Sometimes however, e.g. in case a salon is free, or minimal charge is required by the participants, a deal has to be made.

Photography salons usually have 2,3,4 or 5 sections. Pixoroo allows for ANY number of sections/categories to be set up for a given salon.

There is a great number of software that offer similar functionality around the world. What is special about pixoroo is that it offers the ability to manage the whole process on line with not need to extra hardware. Pixoroo is a modern cloud-based system.

Yes, Pixoroo can run Print Salons/Circuits. There is more work required to run print salons/curcuits because ultimately the physical prints have to be handled manually as well as electronically but Pixoroo provides all required features to run Print Salons.

It depends on the exhibition and the organiser but usually yes you have to pay a small amount to so that your images can be judged. The amount usually depends on the number of images you wish to enter. There are also parameters set by the patrons/sponsor about how much a salon organiser can charge.

As a club/organisation running a salon you will be invoiced after the results have gone out to the entrants for the agreed price.

Pixoroo offers the functionality of Group Discounts. Typically, you create a speciall voucher code for a particular group and all users of that group get the discount you set.

The copyright of an image is always with the phtographer/author. Pixoroo and the organisation running the salon may use an image for their own promotion properly crediting the author but the copyright remains with the artist.

Photography salons usually allow 4 images per section. Pixoroo can handle ANY number of images per section and the number of images for individual sections can be different.

In the UK, Photography competitions are usually set up to allow scores of 2,3,4 and 5. Pixoroo can handle ANY number of scores.

Most salons usually have three judges. Pixoroo allows ANY number of judges. The judges need to be registered with Pixoroo first then approved by the organisation running the photography salon.

In a remote setting scenario, the judge judge in their own time using their own devices. In a synchronous judging, judges typically view the same image being displayed on a big screen in a hall and score the images at the same time. Pixoroo is capable of both types of judging. Pixoroo can also run multiple sections/salons at the same time.

No. Pixoroo is a web application and to use Pixoroo for any reason you need to be connected to the internet. The internet speeds required for Pixoroo to work well are 5MBS and above.

Like with any distant calls there can be a bit of a lag in responses, but this depends on many factors, such as distances from the cloud server, the internet speed at location etc.

Pixoroo can print reports out of the box for example that meet the requirements for the FIAP, PSA and BPE. An number of other reports are also available e.g. awards winners' reports, acceptances reports, address labels and many other custom reports. Typically, the reports are printed in excel or/and pdf formats.

Pixoroo can print automatically a catalogue that is accepted by the FIAP, PSA and other patrons. The user typcially select which images to be printed on the catalogue, featured images etc.

Pixoroo can create "AV Slides" e.g. pictures with title of the image, name of author, country etc.. on the slide. You would have to use a third party software to use the slides produced by Pixoroo and put the AV together, add music to it etc..

Pixoroo data is kept in Microsoft Cloud Servers in the UK.

Microsoft cloud technologies offer robust security and we make maximal use of it. Like with every other internet application though nothing is 100% secure.

Whilst Pixoroo is built with Photographers and Photography contests in mind there is no reason why you cannot run any other types of competition in it. Let us know what your requirements are and we will consider them.
