The unique features of Photo Safe among other image management software are:
The functionality called "safes" allows encrypting and decrypting secret images on your computer. Images remain in their initial location, but become not-viewable for all other programs. Encryption can be done with three diferent algorithms which differ in complexity and speed. One of the options is a password protected ZIP archiving. All "safes" are password protected. Read more about safes here.
The unique "two panels" layout allows handy drag-and-drop operations between folders and categories and prohotvide better overview: you see images from two folders or categories at once. This layout is borrowed from popular file managers like Total Commander, Far, etc.
Photo Safe can make your image management process more simple, elegant and professional. It is integrated with Helicon Filter - the software for image editing. The two programs are good companions for image management plus image editing - all from one vendor Helicon Soft.
