What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

The interface is highly customizable in terms of color and the size of elements such as icons and scroll bars. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

Among the new features of PaintShop Pro X6, there are a couple of selection tools that automatically track the contours of objects in photos. It's a great concept, but hardly revolutionary, as Photoshop Elements' Quick Selection Tool has had the same feature for years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

PaintShop Pro X6 is now a 64-bit application, which means it can use more memory. This should be useful when many images are opened at once and when working with very large images. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It helps me a lot to edit render images to show in my projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

Anyone with a bit of patience can use this program. There are a ton of tutorials online but if you are one who likes to go at it free range and has used another photo editing program, it is a program that you can pick up quite quickly. And the price of cannot be beat for Photoshop like features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

I feel that some functions are still slow, typography is not as good as Photoshop, and things seem to get really cluttered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

If you have a Photoshop need but not the budget Corel Paint Shop Pro will be a perfect fit. Though it does lack many of Photoshop's advanced tools, I found it to be very powerful and affordable photo editing software for us and placing products on the websites. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

The main business problem that is being solved is cost. Also the ability for a novice to quickly get on after one tutorial and crop product images, color correct, and then save the image as a PNG file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

I like that you have the functionality of some of the other software. They are not consistent in most of the layout which is typical of other design software. However they are fairly easy to figure out what to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

Same issues as above. Plus somewhat less functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

I would suggest other software options in the same price range. Honestly you can get the same functionality in much cheaper and sometimes free software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Honestly it is no better or worse then any other design software I have come across. It doesn't blow me away but it serves the purpose, though it is not my first choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like the most recent update which requires that I change screens for blemish, teeth whitening and a few other settings. The software sometimes changes to the wrong picture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are many good you tube tutorials that are must easier to use than the instructions included with the software. Watch them and find easy shortcuts to your most needed features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can edit in 1/4 the amount of time using this compared to my previous software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

The software's interface uses tabs to divide the editing tools by function, which makes the program easy to use and navigate. It has three main tabs for its tools: Manage, Adjust and Edit. The Manage tab is where the photo organizer is found, and you can use it to browse, tag and organize photos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

he picture editor can add effects to your text to make it stand out. In addition, PaintShop X9 has over 90 creative filters you can apply to completely change the textures and colors in your photos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

nce it serves as both a photo editor and design software, this program includes vector graphic tools, which means you can use it to edit both vector and raster images. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Paintshop Pro because it is easier to use than Photoshop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

I would like to see Corel come out with the button that when you hover over the icons, it will give you a description of the tool with a link to learn more about it. I would like to change the icon size and styles in order to be able customize icons. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

I would definitely recommend Paintshop Pro to others if you are looking for a less expensive Photoshop. Paintshop Pro can do a lot of what Photoshop can do. It's really a great program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Adjusting photos' color when you have taken photos outside against the sun or with bad lighting. It's also cool to take pictures of office members during a party or performing a task at work. You don't need a fancy expensive camera, instead, you can us Paintshop Pro to achieve great results that a really expensive camera would do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
