What's the difference after all ?
Eventer is 7 months old now, and the app doesn’t stop
to get more downloads and to seduce more people and companies.
But sometimes people get confused about what Eventer
brings compare to other “options” such as Dropbox, WhatsApp…
We had some people asking us “Cool, but we can do it
on Facebook, WhatsApp, Dropbox, email… can’t we ?”.
Well... yes you can, but you’ll lose time and it will be
a mess to manage the monster you created !
If you tried these solutions you know it’s a tough path to
gather all the photos.
And you know why, don’t you ?
WhatsApp is a great tool to communicate, that’s why
near 1 billion people are using it around the world.
But it’s a messaging app, not made to share albums. I’m
sure you already used WhatsApp to share all the pictures you took during a trip, wedding, party or whatever.
Recently they changed the system which obliged you to send only 10 photos at the same time, great news !
But there are still other annoying things, all the photos are directly saved on your phone even if you don't want to, and when you're invited a bit late on the conversation you have no access to all the messages and photos already shared... And most of the time you don't have all the numbers of the people you want to share all the photos with.
But you already knew it.

Dropbox
Dropbox is a great solution to share files. But have
you ever tried from your phone to share an album with friends ? Probably not, even if now the cloud file-sharing service offers support for photos from mobile devices. Now you can upload photos as any other files. And then you can create and share photos.
Dropbox is a good solution for photographers who want to back up photos, but if you want to catalog, store and share photos then it's not the most intuitive one.
Don't forget that at a certain time you'll have no more space on Dropbox.
Photo sharing is not the first purpose of Dropbox and not thought and designed for that. Even if it's better now, it's still not the most practical tool for that.

No need to tell how great the invention of email is. But not a
solution to share photos at all !
Maybe one of the worst solution by the way.
Because as soon as you shared the photos with the
right people (first it will take forever to send the email), you will expect
photos from others but it’s impossible to create a shared album as you know.
Then everyone will have to send an email to everyone and wait for the emails from all the others. And then, gather all the photos from every emails in an album photo on your computer.

What an adventure…
If the resolution is high you'll be able to only send 5 photos, maybe less... And once you have all the photos you will probably have to use WeTransfer to gather all the photos from all the emails.
Google Photos
Very nice app to store photos.
But when it comes to share these photos, it’s getting quite a long process.
And you usually don't share photos instantly with the app, it's when you're at home, you have to uploads the photos and then invite the people you want to share your photos with.
Great app but no instantness with this process.
You have 15 Go of free space, then you can have 100 Go for $1.99/ month, 1 To for $4.99/ month.
Moreover, even if it's a great product, you have no entertainment possibilities, like all the other you'd say, but since it's the best solution between all the others, I had to point out some flaws.
And of course, I almost forget, I hope you have no problem with the fact that Google get all your personal informations.

ICloud photo sharing (Apple)
Well, first you have to activate the right option between all the options and stuff on your device. Once you found it, you're ready.
Great ! Let's make an album with your friends !
But ICloud only works with people having an Apple device, and let's be honest, it almost never happens to be surrounded by friends only having Iphones. Because you have to know that Iphone owners only represent 18% of the market.
Don't expel some of your friends !
