I love the user friendliness and all the different options that help me to unleash my creativity Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I do not dislike anything about the product it has been very useful for me for many moons Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing is the flexibility of use with a vast array of filters, easy gradient use, and color correction/adjustment options that are available. I also love the wide variety of file formats that one can save as and open and the fact that my files can be saved on the PC with PSP and then opened in Photoshop for extra tweaking and usage.

I have used PSP since version 5. As a freelance graphic designer, I loved the ease of use. With the last 3 upgrades, it's been a bit more challenging. I hate having to go through the manage tabs to get to my work space and the slow launch time of the software in general. I would also like to see the masking feature move a bit faster.

It's good and fast for simple things, it has all the possibilities very visible and it's easy to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When you need more professional finishes or you need more striking effects your imagination is great, the tool lacks options that other products do have Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The simplicity and ease of use. Despite having a wide variety of features, the program is not overly complex like some other graphic editing programs. It's easy enough for a beginner to use and has most (if not all) of the features that an expert would want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I've had some sporadic issues with images not displaying correctly while editing. This might be related to my specific computer build and how RAM and temporary files are allocated though. There have been a few times where it has crashed on me when I was doing something overly complex, but it does offer a feature that allows for recovery of recently editing files. I rarely have any issues with the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This program has great benefits.I have been using it for a few years i started out with digital scarp booking and it has helped with designing shirts.so easy to use and lots of benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish the extras were cheaper like plug ins but other than that its simple to use . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Probably ONLY the fact that I didn't get electrocuted while using it... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
EVERYTHING! This was THE most CLUNKY, KLUDGY awkward, difficult piece of software that I have EVER used... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was able to pretty much teach myself everything there is to know about using the program in a short period of time. I've been using it for years now and though I have tried other programs, I always go back to this one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The initial setup of arranging all the tools on the toolbar the way you like them is the only issue I have with it. You kind of get used to having certain tools in certain spots, so when you get a new computer, have to reinstall it and have to start over with it, it can be kind of annoying to get everything back to where you like it to be.

We've used PaintShop Pro for a long time and have found it to be very easy and straight forward to use, with lots of great features. While I've never used PhotoShop I feel that this is a program that is more suited to the basic/medium skilled user while PhotoShop would be for the expert and a bit more complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only issue I've had is with occasional crashing of the program while I'm working on it, but it usually recovers what I'm working on when I restart it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lo mejor sin duda de Paintshop pro es su relación calidad-precio: Sin duda no puede compararse a otros softwares más avanzados tipo Photoshop, pero posee una gran parte de las mismas funciones, más que suficiente para un nivel medio y a un precio mucho menor. Sin duda, una gran elección para iniciados en la edición fotográfica digital. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Quizás sus funcionalidades se queden algo insuficientes para un nivel de retoque digital profesional, siendo necesario pasar a otros programas más avanzados. Además, resulta algo difícil de manejar al comienzo, algo que puede solventarse con el magnífico manual de usuario online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
