Abstract

Using internet research to study the current market of programs related to image management, we searched for the best software solutions for the description, dissemination and promotion of a photographic archive. With the experience obtained from using and configuring these programs and with an evaluation using previously established requirements, a list of the most adaptable and versatile software having the added value of being capable of expansion has been elaborated. In addition, we have been able to contribute to establishing the criteria and recommendations to determine which of them are better for each type of archive, for a public or private institution, an agency, or a personal archive.
