SmugMug Source is a new, AI-powered Raw file management service from SmugMug (2)

SmugMug has announced a new addition to its platform, SmugMug Source. The new add-on is a Raw file management service, allowing photographers to store and access their entire photo library from any device anywhere in the world. With the addition of Source, SmugMug now promises a full shot-to-sale, end-to-end photography platform.

Recent Videos

'This is much more than simple cloud storage,' says Scott Kinzie, VP of Marketing and Business Development for SmugMug. 'This is AI-driven photo management. It's more than never losing an image, it's image recognition technology that means never wondering if you can find just the right file when you need it most. [SmugMug Source] is a modern solution to the modern problems our photographers face every day.'

SmugMug Source promises to be more than just a cloud storage solution. Built with photographers in mind, Source includes helpful photographer-oriented features like file visibility and AI-powered search tools. You can also store sidecar files from Adobe, Capture One and DxO. Supported Raw files include ARW, BMP, CR2, CR3, CRW, DCR, DNG, IIQ, MRW, NEF, NRW, ORF, PEF, RAF, RAW, RW2, RWL, SRF, SRW, TIFF, TIF, X3F.

'Our customers have been telling us they want a better way to manage their RAW files,' says Kinzie. 'Today we're thrilled to deliver that and more.' SmugMug Source integrates with SmugMug apps on every platform, including desktop, mobile, web and Adobe Lightroom. SmugMug customers can upload Raw files from anywhere, adjust security settings and access privileges, and organize files to ensure they're always easy to find. You can also schedule upload and set up watched folders to enable an automated workflow.

SmugMug hopes to separate itself from other cloud backup solutions by delivering photographer-friendly features. Being able to see your Raw files, for example, is different from many storage solutions, which show RAW files as a standardized file icon. SmugMug Source hopes to make the service a one-stop-shop for file management for photographers already ingrained in the SmugMug ecosystem for their photography website and business.

As noted earlier, SmugMug Source is an add-on service, meaning that it includes an extra cost beyond the typical SmugMug subscription fees. With SmugMug Source, you pay for the data you need. Up to 512GB costs $3 per month. From 512GB to 1TB, the price increases to $5. For each additional TB of data, the fee increases by $5. For example, if you need to store 4TB of RAW files, your subscription cost will be $20 per month. SmugMug writes, 'At the end of each monthly billing cycle, we'll take a look at your storage level and bill you for the appropriate tier.' Your SmugMug Source subscription is billed separately from your standard SmugMug subscription, and an active SmugMug subscription is required to use SmugMug Source.

Some of us have still not forgotten SmugMug's broken promises not to do away with 'grandfathered' accounts' free storage, when they bought out Flickr. And their holding ex-Flickr users to ransom, as a consequence.

SmugMug can go and f**k themselves, as far as I'm concerned.

Where did I say I thought I was entitled to anything?

What I objected to was SmugMug out and out lying to Flickr users.

SmugMug, before buying Flickr: "We have no plans to make any changes to Flickr' existing free tier accounts"

SmugMug, one nanosecond after buying Flickr: "Give us some money or get the hell out of here, you free-loading sh*ts!"

So, as I eloquently said before; "SmugMug can go and f**k themselves" --not because I think I'm entitled to anything from them. But because they deliberately lied about what they had planned for Flickr, before they took it over.

We didn't say anything like that.

Luckily, the Internet has a memory, so you can go read and see exactly what we said, rather than just making things up. We were explicit that we *would* be making changes on day one, especially with an eye to making Flickr cash flow positive and profitable, so we could breath new life into it and ensure it would be around forever.

Here's what I said on the very first day, and have continued to say: https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2018/04/20/smugmug-buys-flickr-verizon-oath/537377002/

SmugMug costs money. Is this the end of free Flickr accounts?
Emphatically not.

"Flickr's free accounts are foundational to its community of influential and engaged photographers. We are not making any changes to Flickr plans or rates at this time," SmugMug said in a tweet. And in a Quora post, MacAskill added, "We are committed to a huge, healthy, vibrant community of people using the free plan."

And...

https://gizmodo.com/flickr-takes-another-sad-turn-gets-bought-by-something-1825432997

In an FAQ about the deal posted by SmugMug, the company said that it plans to allow Flickr to continue to operate as its own, standalone platform. Existing Flickr accounts will continue to work same as they ever have, both for free users and Flickr Pro subscribers. SmugMug did note that over time, it will migrate Flickr onto SmugMug’s technology infrastructure and will port user photos over to the platform as part of that move, but the photos will remain accessible on Flickr.

Although strangely enough the SmugMug FAQ linked to from that article:

Thanks for the links. They basically confirm what I've been saying.

I'd still like to see the links where you got "SmugMug's broken promises not to do away with 'grandfathered' accounts' free storage" (we never promised this) and "holding ex-Flickr users to ransom" (never happened) and "SmugMug, one nanosecond after buying Flickr: "Give us some money or get the hell out of here, you free-loading sh*ts!"". (we never did this, either, and certainly not one nanosecond later). None of those statements are true.

As promised, though, and thanks again for the link, we do have a "huge, healthy, vibrant community of people using the free plan" so we clearly didn't kick anyone off. We're the world's largest photography-focused community, which would be impossible without many, many millions of active free accounts.

FYI, we have yet to delete a single photo, either. We were afraid we might, which is why we made the announcement, but so far, it hasn't been necessary.

It's an interesting concept, but I'm not sure it is properly priced, at least for amateurs. For $69.99 I can have 1TB of data on OneDrive, and use ACDSee PhotoStudio (Home, Pro, or Ultimate) to access the data directly. Plus, I have access to the standalone MS Office Suite.

For $99.99 I can get SIX (6) 1TB accounts and access to MS Office for all 6 accounts. I use 2 different accounts for my purposes, and gave one to my wife. The remaining 3 are idle.

I like the concept, but if it is just storage & management, I think ACDSee's ability to complete the entire workflow from photos stored online is better for me.

BTW, I also have an offline back up via an external HD.

If you are addressing me, I manage my online storage via ACDSee, it functions and integrates well with OneDrive, in some ways even better than with ACDSee's own integrated proprietary cloud storage.

As far as HD failures, go. I replace the external HD every 3-4 years or so. I'm a low volume photographer so my external HDs don't fill up fast. If the old External HD still has life in it, I store a final Bkp on it and put it on the shelf. I use the ACDSee backup module, nothing fancy but it is capable of managing its own backups,even to CD backups

As a retired DBA, whose job depended on never losing data, I think a combination of cloud and local storage is ideal.

If I am ever in a situation where OneDrive AND my local HD have failed, I suspect I'm in a lot more trouble than unrecoverable photos.

SmugMug in the early days, had a raw file storage premium service. Which they pulled.

Glad to see it coming back, and competitively priced, same as iCloud/TB :) Unfortunately, it's no flat rate offer like the original one. Maybe, they could negotiate a deal with Amazon including Amazon Glacier service for cold storage. 180$/y for 3TB what would mean flat rate for most photographers is a bit steep.

You migrate if one drive fails. Or you use three drives if you wish.

If a drive fails before you replace it the emotional cost is zero, as you still have the other drive(s).

I'm pretty sure smugmug spends more time and money to keep the files secure than most individuals would. There have been quite some "accidents" with some NAS in the near past for example.

Pure (encrypted) backup is probably another use case not targeted by smugmug. You can either have full security with encryption or convenience (easy access from everywhere, previews, link to JPG etc), not both.

You've not really explained why I'd want to keep all of my raw files on a cloud.

Note my qualifier "all".

I can certainly see transferring say 1500 raws from my trip to Peru to the cloud while I'm still in Peru (of elsewhere) and then when I return to my home country (say the USA), I can download the files from the cloud and I don't have to worry about losing cards or having my photos picked through by customs. But in that instance, I can just use Google Drive.

I don't doubt for a second that SmugM makes some effort at cloud security. But above I didn't question SmugM's capacity at basic PW management.

The reason I'd demand that the files kept on the sever be encrypted (so similar to PWs and bank account numbers stored on a server) is that I don't want SmugM or some other party viewing those raws.

Link to jpeg, huh? How would that be different than Flikr or some other online posting forum for photos?

While good to know about a company, and it's useful information to choose one over the other, NEVER assume your files are safe with any solution. Have multiple. A couple onsite, a couple offsite. Offsite also does not have to be in the cloud, and it could also be an encrypted drive in a climate-controlled storage locker.

SmugMug CEO & Chief Geek here.

FYI, SmugMug Source, like all of SmugMug, is built on AWS (Amazon) and leverages their storage platforms. Every RAW uploaded to Source is stored in multiple datacenter in each of two different geographical regions (different US states), so your photos should remain safe even if a natural disaster like fire, flood, or hurricane takes one region and all of its datacenter out. Each storage region has eleven 9s of durability (99.999999999%). Put another way, if you uploaded a billion photos to us, AWS would likely go more than 100 years without losing one. Since that's per-region, the odds are even better that, with multi-region storage, it will be extremely rare.

That being said, I think keeping a local copy, or copy on some other platform, is super smart. If you know how to do so, and can afford to, you probably should. If not, and you must choose a single solution, we're probably the best in the business and I promise we'll work hard to keep them safe.

I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing that, but we really don't upsell much on our platform. You're our customer, we're thrilled you're paying us, we certainly appreciate it, and we'd hate to drive you away. (We also don't have much to sell - this is our 2nd add-on in the 19 year history of the company). Would you mind explaining what you're seeing in the product that we're trying to sell you?

(Funnily enough, we most often hear from customer who are upset that we didn't tell them about all the advanced features on the higher-priced accounts... because we have never, ever, upsold someone from a low-priced account to a high-priced account in the product)

That's great it links the raw and Jpeg. I hope the process is improved from now. Right now I can use the Lightroom smugmug plug-in to link them in the Lightroom catalogue to my smugmug files, but it then gets confused by "versions" and asks me to pick the right ones, and that can take days to finish with my huge catalogue, so I give up.

Don,

First thank you for being responsive.

The current popup starts out: Watch the current SmugMug Film...

Ironically, I went to copy and paste the rest of that ad and another popup appeared, this one offering a free ebook. It is so irritating!!! You currently cannot get rid of these.

You can clear this but every time I click on an image the same popup shows, sometimes covering something I want to see.

a) I should be able to opt out of such popups or b) at least close them once and have them closed for the entire session.

As far as I know, we don't do popups like this anywhere on our service, and never have. Especially when you click on an image as you describe. I've been trying to find somewhere on my account where this happens and just can't find it.

It sounds like you may have some browser plugin or malware that's causing this?

Would you mind sharing some URLs where you're seeing this behavior, and describing exactly where you're clicking that causes a popup so I can see if I can reproduce it?

Thanks!

You can also store side car files from LR, C1 and DXO, except that C1 really doesn’t support sidecar files. (This is a knock on C1. Not a knock on smugmug.)

I use google drive now to sync everything. DXO sidecars upload as they change and I can access from anywhere and even move from one machine to another while editing a project.

All is synchronized with my local NAS so I have local copies of everything (currently about 10TB of mostly images and some video.)

Yeah the session this is basically sidecar files but C1 doesn’t seem to officially acknowledge that those session files are all you need to restore your edits (they are). C1 says if you want to export tour edits in a standalone file you need to make a massive EIP file which is effectively a zip file with the original raw file and the sidecar file.

Kinda silly.

I've used them. Once they can make their site more user friendly (ie. not have to include the Smugmug branding everywhere, even on paid plans, I would return). But I had tried to set up a store once (a few years ago) and the check out page advertised that it was being hosted under Smugmug, which I sort of disliked. For sharing of photos, it's fine, but if you intend to sell anything, I would look elsewhere. Otherwise the service is OK.

(This may have also changed in recent years, but I haven't tried again since that time, which was a few years ago...)

We used to allow the removal of all branding many years ago. Customers of our customers (those buying prints & gifts from our Pros) got confused, and started reporting their credit card charges for things they'd actually received as being bad, resulting in chargebacks. We put the branding back in, but made sure to highlight our customers' brands first and foremost, while acknowledging that SmugMug is the company that will handle support, returns, and you'll see on your credit card statement.

It's not unusual to see other store platforms be co-branded for this very reason, so that's what we've stuck to, and largely our customers, and their customers, seem to be happy with the compromise.

We do continue to refine and improve it, so you might want to give it another try. I'd be happy to have the conversation about what doesn't work well for you with our current approach so we can learn & improve.

I'd have to check again and see what changes have been made since I stopped using the service. In reality, I only really sell through word-of-mouth as I have a local lab that does printing (I don't really sell digital files anymore, and never really did sell that many to begin with).

And since I've sort of not been selling through a website, I've taken up Wordpress with some templates as it gives me more control over things.

Hi Don. Great to you have your input on this discussion!

I wonder whether the problem is an American English/English English thing?

Over here, the word "Smug" means self-satisfied or conceited. It can only ever have negative connotations. Whilst the word "mug" can be used as slang for "face", in the context of photography, it brings to mind a "mugshot", a word which is most commonly used to describe the photo the police take of someone once they've been arrested!

I don't think these are the contexts you want to bring to mind with your brand.

In terms of alternative names, whilst I could dream up a bunch of suggestions for you, I recommend that you engage a brand consultancy for this. They will be able to help you avoid all kind of pitfalls. On the plus side, your logo is both recognisable and easily adaptable, so if you changed name, you could probably get away without a complete re-brand.

Hope that helps!

Don, I complained about the name yrs ago in some of your forums. it's the reason I like to keep the branding off my pages. never liked the logo or cutesy name. No offense, clearly it's something you are attached to as founder. How do you tell a father to change his baby's name? very folksy and cute like flickr, snapfish, .fly, etc but if you're catering to pros or wannabes /"serious" amateurs(lol)it's hasn't got the right ring to it, "Hey, go to smugmug it's great". What's a smugmug? A vessel for coffee? doesn't tell the story or function. Obviously it's never been a "Deal breaker"to me. I like the look/ feel, the support service from your "heroes" is remarkably quick unlike any other service org. I had a Zenfolio acct. for an offshoot of my work, but ditched it ,consolidated everything here.. I've been w/you from the beginning, stuck thru a a few blips so I guess I'm "loyal". If u really want to consider rebranding, you'd get many ideas from me included.

I never thought about the name and the backlash the name receives is a surprise to me too. But better learn about it late than never.

Probably, a second brand name template would be technically feasible. Esp. as you already own Flickr which however, isn't a better name ;)

If I translate "smug mug" to German and back to English, using the best online translation service (deepl.com), I get: "conceited grimace". Not sure that's the brand name you anticipated ... (none of my customers ever wondered - but that may be due to their limited knowledge of English).

Just offer a serious name to serious pros. Like "photoncloud" or whatever ...

I'm not really attached to the name as the founder, I'm far more attached to whatever my customers want. I'd change the name, or add another one, if I thought it would thrill enough customers. So please do share your many ideas, I'm listening.

The funny part about this is that the name was an accident in the first place. It was mostly a joke, used as an internal codename, and a few weeks before launch, we were going to change it to something "real". When we announced that to our first hundred beta testers, they threw a fit and swore they wouldn't promote the product to their friends & family at launch if we changed it. They'd fallen in love with the name and insisted we stick with it.

Our entire existence we've tried to listen to customers first and ourselves second, so we listened, kept the name, and the rest is history. Millions of thrilled paying customers later, I guess it worked. :)

But we're always open to change and feedback. I'm listening.
