The noise reduction is unbelievable. I occasionally take dog agility photographs. The speed of the dogs demands a fast shutter speed, but since I'm taking photos inside of a building the light isn't great. Flash can't be used because it would distract the dogs and handlers. This means that I need to use a high ISO. Optics Pro does a much better job at cleaning up the noise than the other software I tried - Adobe Lightroom and Canon Digital Photo Professional.

It doesn't do a few things that Adobe Lightroom does that are really convenient. The dust removal tool apparently can't be resized (I'm still using the trial version, but I've had it for quite a while). Lightroom also let's me see where I've used the dust removal tool if I go back months or even years later. Lightroom also let's me save "Snapshots" with different settings; of course, Optics Pro does, however, let me use versions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to apply settings across multiple photos from a shoot. The workflow is very streamlined with this one. There are only a couple tabs to toggle between modes. I like this much better than Lightroom's workflow. The ability to preview presets for images is fast and accurate. I love how easy it is to make changes to the level of detail, noise reduction, color corrections and nearly every possible adjustment. Optics Pro the clear winner when it comes to meeting my editing needs.
One of my favorite features is the software's ability to identify and download camera and lens profiles while automatically applying the corrections to the images.
Another feature that I really like is the DxO ClearView option. ClearView can bring out details that you don't even know are in the image. This can be a subtle effect or an over-the-top thing - just like HDR can be under or over-used. In the right hands and with the right settings, ClearView can really make your photos stand out.

I have not yet found anything that I don't like about the software. It is somewhat pared-down from software such as Lightroom, but then, I don't need to edit photos AND order prints from the same software. That's about the only thing that I find lacking in Optics Pro and I don't mind at all. If you prefer to edit and order prints from the same application, then this may cause you some frustration.

The automatic features are really amazing and give the picture a really good enhancing. You can notice the difference before and after and the results are amazing, the software knows what are the camera and lense flaws and compensates well for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Personally I find it less intuitive to use further than the "automatic" features, as in the manual changes that one would like to apply are not always very easy to find and apply. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The multiple features that the software includes and the seamless way to apply them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The interface is not very clear and user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I look at DxO as a non-destructive raw converter with some unique features that can make the difference between a great image and one that either ends up in the trash. To be honest, if I can accomplish my editing needs without leaving Lightroom, that’s my first choice. However, DxO has made it as seamless as possible to work with Lightroom - direct import and export to Lightroom are supported, so there are no additional steps required other than choosing Edit in DxO and then returning those adjusted files back to your Lightroom catalog.

I don’t see it as is a image organization tool. For that, I still depend on Lightroom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Prime noise reduction is great, clearview works well when needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No slider control for white balance, no levels adjustment, UI hard to navigate Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everything about this program is nice. But the automatic changes when you open a folder of images is nice too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It’s nice. No real downside to the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The entire photo editing process to this is awesome. It makes editing photos a breeze and the correction and assistance it provides is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing to really dislike, but I think software like this can always be improved in some way or another. Just functionality and user friendliness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love its noise reduction. It's the best you can get. Even if you shoot a low light picture with lots of noise in the dark areas, Dxo can manage it better than the competition. It also does a perfect job when correcting distortion of wide lens and even fisheye images that it straightens perfectly. You can also post directly to Facebook or Flickr and other apps from Opticspro. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is very hard to work with on longer projects. It doesn't help my workflow as a wedding photographer. I have to edit 800-1000 shots per day. The noise reduction takes forever to remove the noise and there are no local brush adjustment options. I have to buy the more expensive software ELITE so my camera gets supported. I now own a Nikon D750 and previously I had a D600. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
