Ifolor is THE greatest photolab here in Switzerland, but I never had anything to do with them, and maybe others decide as well to go for another supplier. Had around a dozen projects done by a bookbinding manufacture close to Zurich and very pleased with their quality, software and service, before I tried Fuji and Apple books. With Ifolor, I found the software very limiting and Windows-focussed.
Other aspects.
They tell the brands, but not the brands and products, so we don't know how much Canon DSLRs or Nikon point & shoot would be involved. Also, a lot of photo dealers are no longer connected with Ifolor, they are doing supermarket business, while other customers use to go to a photo dealer or a couple of highly specialised and very customer oriented huge print services. If I needed low price prints, I would not hesitate to use Ifolor, but do HQ stuff I developed more confidence in my book supplier.
In other words: It says something about Ifolor customers and gives an impression, but that is not the whole story.
