"Decent photo editor, but features are hard to find and use"

4/5

What do you like best about Paintshop Pro?

It does a decent job of editing actual photos and the ability to see all of your photos in the program and then select which ones you want to edit is nice.

You can also create and run scripts to quickly make common, repetitive adjustments to photos Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Paintshop Pro?

If you have used Adobe Photoshop like I have, you will find yourself constantly confused about where common features are or how to use them. For example, there is a menu that lists all of the effect you can apply to an image, but if you are looking to create a blur you won't find it there. It would instead be under the Adjust menu.

This is primarily a photo editor, and is not ideal for editing screenshots or adding/drawing things like callouts Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Paintshop Pro:

If you are looking for a product to edit photos, Paintshop can get the job done fairly well but the learning curve is steep (especially if you are used to Adobe Photoshop) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We primarily use Paintshop to edit screenshots used in online help documentation Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
