The difference.

The short version: Zenfolio is closest to Piczel in shape: a site, galleries and a store in one place. It takes 7% plus processing on every sale; Piczel takes nothing. Its $9 plan holds 15 GB; Piczel's $10 plan holds 100 GB.
Where Piczel wins: Piczel takes no commission on sales. The entry plan holds nearly seven times Zenfolio's storage and the middle plan twice as much. Bookings, estimates and invoices come with every paid plan; Zenfolio keeps invoicing for its middle tier and charges extra for bookings.
Where Zenfolio is ahead: Unlimited JPEG storage for $40 on its top plan, and a print lab link that ships orders without you. For an archive past 1 TB that plan costs less; once you sell, its 7% commission eats into the difference.
