What do you like best about PhotoDirector?

The software has a usable interface with brilliant noise reduction, dehaze and AI enhancement modes. Other than that, the sky outlay mode, picture in picture tool and a portrait retouch modes , has all other basic color grading features boasting a HDR slider , and saturation , vibrance and exposure sliders. Basic cropping and framing features are also up to the mark. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoDirector?

The interface has a lot of bugs and advertisements, even sometimes in the premium version. The other major drawback is the device compatibility. The software is majorly supported only in Android and iOS and the PC compatibility should be immediately introduced. The interface should improved to make it feel more professional and functional. Another major problem is that the quality of the exported picture is reduced to some extent and the meta data of the picture is also destroyed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhotoDirector solving and how is that benefiting you?

I need everyday quick noise reduction and basic editing and colour grading which can be easily handled through Photodirector. But I take shelter of other more professional softwares for more complex and raw picture editing requirements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

PhotoDirector is a one place workstation for creating and editing graphics, digital content and templates and many more in this.

It manages to alter multiple types of photos into one and make them look more attractive, this does not effect the original quality of the image.

With this its very easy to edit or remove the image background with so much of accuracy and details.

What do you dislike about PhotoDirector?

The interface of the application slightly misbehaves sometimes due to more content processing at one time. Or this hapens due to larger number of people in a team are using this applications services at one time. This needs to be improved as the performance breaking issue is very irritating and does not process multiple tasking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoDirector?

It is easy to upload clear images. There are many helpful options for editing and adjusting. The photo effects menu is one of the best things. It's better than some competitors because it allows you more editing options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Placement of images when scanning is a little complicated. With some patience, you get the hang of it. If there was a way how the image would be framed ahead of time, that might be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can effectively scan and print images for art projects and edit an image in a wide variety of ways. I have completed more projects with PhotoDirector. The quality of my work has improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoDirector?

It has an easy-looking yet powerful interface.

It supports all kinds in one editor (except some formats); that's rare. You can edit Photos, Videos, even your Audios!

It does have a learning curve, but it was not insurmountable. Especially with the pricing they are offering. That's good value for money.

When editing a video it offers you many transitions, that's very helpful for not-so-expert editors like me, who edits basic stuff for office/work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoDirector?

It seems to misbehave with most of the Windows updates. It broke down on a lot of people after the recent WIN10 update.

When contacted their support, they doesn't have much to say about it. They kind of expect us to know everything about it.

But definitely who does a bit of photography/photo-editing like me won't know much. It doesn't support raw format from new mirrorless camera models, that's not okay.

That's not really a deal breaker for me, but as I am using my X-S10 nowadays, I would like it to solve this problem ASAP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering PhotoDirector:

If you don't need GOD level editing, use it, you will be fine.

You are getting all-in-one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhotoDirector solving and how is that benefiting you?

I don't do much editing, just a few here and there for office stuff and marketing stuff for my freelancing site, so having three-four editors on my PC wasn't the best idea for me.

So, there comes PhotoDirector! I can do all my stuff in one single software, that works pretty well too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhotoDirector?

I use the "deblur" effect on different jobs where I will get in a digital photo to fix, or if I scan a picture, slide or negative, that was shot slightly out of focus. I was able to take a 73-year-old photo that was slightly out of focus and make it look like it was shot yesterday. I have saved several photos with this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhotoDirector?

The interface is a bit confusing. It would be best if you looked things over to get it to work for you. If you are used to Photoshop, it is more challenging to learn. Unfortunately, you need to be realistic about the deblur. It will not fix really blurry pictures, only slightly blurry ones. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhotoDirector solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use the "deblur" effect on different jobs where I will get in a digital photo to fix, or if I scan a picture, slide or negative, that was shot slightly out of focus. That is all I use it for. I have saved several photos with this tool. Once in a while, removing "red-eye." I use Photoshop for everything else. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
