What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

I've been using Paintshop Pro for nearly 20 years and it has always been my "go to" application for simple and complex graphics deign & editing. I've found it to always be easier to use than competitive products offered by Adobe, and more powerful & user friendly than Corel Draw. The feature set is still so extensive that I doubt I'm using 50% of its capability, however it enables me to get the job done fast. Best of all, it's priced much lower than an Adobe product, which I find is overkill for simple graphics functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

I wish there were some better tutorials or examples provided to learn new tools and techniques. I usually go to Youtube to find what I'm looking for, however then I'm at the will of Google's search engine for Youtube and don't always find it interprets what I'm searching for. I've found that my version of Paintshop Pro doesn't always import .PNG files correctly, however I've found 3rd party applications to handle format correction. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

If you're looking for a powerful, yet easy to use graphics application... look no further than Paintshop Pro. It's less pricey than something like Adobe and much easier to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Paintshop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

I've used Paintshop Pro for everything from touching up photos, wireframes, logos and full presentation graphics and charts. I know there may be better tools for some of these functions, however I feel that I'm a "Pro" at using this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

In one, low cost photo editing tool, Corel was implemented practically all their photo-editing knowledge. Photo editing, basic+ raw editing and very good catalog options... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

No CMYK support is big disadvantage of PSP, and that is the main problem with this excellent software. All editing has to be done in RGB. Archive files has to be in RGB, and only CMYK function in PSP is export to CMYK TIFF. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

If you work for digital media, or you are photographer, Paintshop Pro 2019 iy excellent program. With new PicToPainting and ParticleShop plugins this software make you photo dreams come true... You will suffer only if you have to edit CMYK images. This program cannot do that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Paintshop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Paintshop Pro 2019 is nice photo editing and photo manipulating software from Corel. When I work web graphics, or editing in RGB for digital media, PSP 2019 save my time. It is versatile photo tool, with premium quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

I learned to design graphics on Paint Shop Pro, so I find it easy to use. I know it's not the popular one for designers to use, but I really feel comfortable with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

There aren't a lot of extras you can get to use with it like you can with Photoshop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

Search for tutorials online and follow the instructions. You'll learn a lot of tips & tricks just by going through one of those. The more you use it, the easier it becomes. Take a bit to familiarize yourself with the shortcuts and learn how to use scripts. They will both save you a lot of times and steps in the long run. A lot of people swear by Photoshop, but I learned on Paint Shop Pro and I did try Photo Shop, but I still prefer Paint Shop Pro over Photo shop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Paintshop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quickly & easily make graphics for my website and social media and adding watermarks to my photos. It works really well for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

Many options, tools and posibilities. Can compete with Photoshop installed in a Computer locally. Licenses are perpetual.. Other tools bundled increase power. Image correction, like perspective, panorama, etc can be done in the tool.

Dual help system (on-line and pdf) has been found appropriate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

Even being able to open multilayer PhotoShop files, it does not handles the layers correctly, does not shows all layers, only the active when saving the file.Help system is a Little bit complicated but, at the end, we can find the solution to our question.

Note that, even in the case that a license of use is purchased (perpetual) user name is not included in the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

Training environment is a very useful tool provided by company. Video tutorials exploring capabilities are extremely useful.

Tips and tricks found in training environment are interesting.

Bearing in mind photo editing from cameras, it works with different formats and also accept RAW images from different manufacturers, also can provide lens distortion corrections and color profiles from different cameras.

Multiple graphics formats are handled, both opening and exporting.

Multilayer .psd (PhotoShop files) are not handled properly (does not consider multiple layers) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Paintshop Pro solving and how is that benefiting you?

Edit, correct, crop and merge different pictures.

Recover old photos, restoring colors and créate different images.

All of these tasks are orientated to provide documents, studies and analysis to customers with a useful graphical information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
