Zoner Photo Studio gets better with each update I have been using Zoner Photo Studio for many years and it just seems to get better with each iteration. I especially like that I can quickly review large numbers of photos quickly, compare multiple copies and don't have to worry about importing or other troublesome catalog issues that often occur in Lightroom. I like that it easily stacks RAW and jpg files and I can make quick or more sophisticated edits with the Editor module or the Developer module. Their customer support is always helpful and answers questions in a timely manner. Can't wait to see what the team comes up with next!

My longtime experience with Zoner Photo Studio I've been using Zoner Photo Studio way back before it was offered as a subscription only. I began with version 15. Although I don't use all of the features offered, I especially like the ease of use, the ability to use masks and overlays, the floating window features, and the productive modules that ease my workflow.

Terrible customer Service The one star rating is for horrible customer service. My 89+ father-in-law purchased the program for managing photos; unfortunately his Microsoft personal computer hard drive began failing two days after purchase. He bought an apple computer. He found out that Zoner does NOT have an apple program. Customer Service told him to give his account to someone else. No one else in the family has microsoft we all use Apple. So much for customer service and understanding.

What I like/What I don't like What I like: 1 Has everything I need, and more. 2 Develop Module is like Lightroom. Especially with 'Primary Colour Shift': similar to Lightroom's 'Colour Calibration'. No other Lightroom competitors seem to have this yet. 3 Editor Module is like Photoshop but easier to use with only those other tools a 'normal' person needs for some of those Photoshop effects. 4 Customer support from a couple of queries has been good. 5 Tutorials on Zoner's 'Learn Photography' website. What I'm not keen on: 1 YouTube Channel/tutorials compared to Zoner's competitors seems really poor and little use. 2 Online User Guide/Manual. So basic, it's no help. Few illustrations. In most cases, it merely lists tools and what they do, but not how to use or why, or in any coherent way. (This could be that Zoner wants you to buy the 'Practical Guide' at $19 which looks like what that manual should look like.) If they put some work into making the online manual better, it would get 5 stars.

I like how simple it is to use I like how simple it is to use, I have been enjoying it thus far. Your program is super great a taking out camera noise or gritty. I am going to try a few different platforms to see how they work. Picmonkey was my 1st, but I have left them, due pricing and not worth my efforts.
