jAlbum was founded in 2002 by Swedish programmer David Ekholm, who built the software after failing to find a suitable photo album tool following a ski trip. The application targets photographers and enthusiasts who want full control over the visual presentation of their online galleries, without being limited to basic templates. It operates in the low-to-mid price segment, offering both free and paid licenses alongside optional cloud storage plans hosted on jalbum.net. jAlbum is positioned for users who either have their own web hosting or prefer a hosted solution, making it flexible enough for beginners and technically experienced users alike.
