What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

I heard about this from a College Classmate who works in Photoshop. I downloaded the 30-day free trial (top that Adobe) and so far, I have to say, I really like it. Let's be honest, no one can top Adobe yet, but this is a very close competitor. Paintshops Welcome and Interface screens are clean and easy to navigate. There are also some cool templates if you are not completely inspired that day. This app get's my Raw Images cleaned up nicely, which is what I mainly use it for, but also has other cool effects for my digital art. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

It will never be as slick and refined as Photoshop but it is cheaper and has the potential to give Adobe a run for their money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

What I like best about Paintshop Pro —the very first thing I noticed about it— is that it's response time is extremely fast when it comes to loading the program, while working with it, and especially when saving large files. I've watched myself age while waiting for another well known design application to process my files. Never again do I have to wait ages for the application to load and then another 100 years for the files to come up! Thank you so much to the Paintshop Pro team for helping to improve my work flow! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

What I dislike really comes down to wanting some more default filters with the stock application with the initial installation deployment. It would be nice to have that, sure, but realistically it is quite a minor setback to contend with, and it is easy enough to remedy on my own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

Paintshop Pro is high quality full featured design software at a competitive price point. I've used a lot of the software from other big names in the field but Paintshop Pro is my go-to application for most design jobs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Advertising has become a breeze with Paintshop Pro. I can get my projects done quickly with this feature full design software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

What I like best about Paintshop Pro is it's ease of use. The software has enough functions to quickly create, edit and save/share images. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

The software's templates of characters and symbols for image editing are relatively bland, and, some of the designs would be a bit dated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

You can learn the software quickly and expedite your work with success. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Paintshop Pro has been a solution to quickly save and expedite image work. The benefits would be that it's a cheaper software then higher-end image editing software on the market. Another benefit I've realized is that it can accomplish a broad range of image steps that have been easy to learn and adapt to our business needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

I will say that the simple aspect of using is the main thing that I like about him. As I progressed in my work, I can say that I passed the program. He has the tools to do many different things and it was very useful when I started. It is quite easy to learn and use for the basics. Excellent output options that allow users to have options on how to generate their designs from png to jpeg to gif and so on. I can insert fonts and edit them, as well as clip art to complement my design, another thing is that all the functions are in a suite, they are not separated in several applications. The support behind the software is amazing, if you have any questions, you can expect to be able to solve it with the help of support and the community.
