I'm a really long time user, and thus have developed muscle memory skills that speed my work with photos. I most enjoy automatic adjustments, cropping and the swift ability to enhance contrast and brightness.
"Quick Fix" is really powerful and almost always results in an ideal image. The Adjustment Wizard walks you through several enhancement steps, offering three image choices at each step. Or you may manually adjust virtually all aspects in an easy-to-use panel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There no semiautomatic method for eliminating backgrounds or outlining people so that head/shoulder photos gain a white background that can be made transparent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Love this program because it is pretty much on par with Photoshop at a fraction of the cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Seems to be a memory hog - a lot of times, there is not enough memory to complete some tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The photo editing abilities with this program are amazing! I do all of my photo restoration and alteration projects on this platform! No excuses! It has beautiful filters and unique tools to alter/restore almost any picture you throw at it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Outside the photo editing abilities, I haven't had much use or success with this program. From a graphic designer standpoint, the use of this program stops after the photo is complete. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.


Great online community with lots of videos, tutorials and ways to connect with other users. Online topic/user guide that is easy to navigate and has search options to find solutions needed easier. Lots of customization options from everything to workstation color to toolbars and more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Hard to navigate. Features are hard to find. Free downloadable content can only be used on the 32-bit format. 32-bit format doesn't work on my computer. Slow to update bugs. Hard to import new content for program such as brushes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Better UI for ease of understanding. It's more intuitive than Photoshop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
