Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 (full version without media) (license)

Customer Review

With Photoshop Elements 10, I had major problems with my Win7 / 64bit computer. Always crashed again, etc. (as it was a full version, and not a trial, that was annoying. Since then I invite before buying a photo software always only the trial version to see if my computer can carry this burden at all. )
Then came a new notebook (Win8) a trial version of Photoshop 11 with the house. In this version, I immediately fell in love: great menu, everything very clear and without large Photoshop experience great fast processing results possible. No crashes, no freezing. But in the long run was me of the notebook screen to edit too small.

Now I can finally on my big computer with the number 13 (the difference between the surface of element 11 to element 13 is minimal) work. Lightroom 5 I have installed a few weeks ago, as it always came back to crash the program.
Element 13 in the trial version has been running for almost a week without any problems. No crashes, no freezes.
The processing sometimes takes a while because the i5 processor and the somewhat weak graphics card becomes apparent. But everything completely under the bearable. Better computer should run even faster.

The RAW files of Samsung NX3000 were recognized immediately.

The editing options are naturally limited compared to Lightroom, the results are a touch weaker (poor I would not want to talk).

The whole presentation / user interface is simply great, as is currently no other editing software ran. Incredibly clear and intuitive. The subdivision in three different processing types is useful (Quick, assistant, expert). It's really fun, here without a lot of Photoshop experience / knowledge to be able to work and achieve great results immediately anyway.

Only the homecoming-telephoning bugging (has already brought me in the 10er version of the Palm, Adobe is there already fierce). I can not change settings during the installation now, but will run after installation on my Adobe account via Internet Explorer, my password is there again to enter and object to the automatic transfer of all my editing stories. The tree is so customer unfriendly, as I lack the words. (It used to be but also possible to install a program, enter the activation code and good wars)

And the moral of the story: the program itself, there is a perfect score, for the insatiable hunger for data from Adobe but a star deduction.

Finally, a new life Rank: 5/5
