No thanks! I have an earlier version of Illustrator and while it was great, I have no interest in renting this kind of software. At this point, it’s simply not worth the exorbitant amount of money that results from this kind of payment model. Consequently, this discourages and financially punishes many hobbyists and aspiring creatives who merely want to “try” to unleash their creative side. Adobe, how about you figure out how to make a free/freemium version with certain features disabled (typically those used for commercial purposes). How about truly inspiring people to try your products and eventually buy them (when it makes sense to do so); inspire people to be creative without finical penalties–without them having to immediately and always give you their credit card just to do so. Then, when/if their creativity takes off and/or they can be compensated financially for their work, then provide a reasonable monthly price that helps such users to further embrace their creative side as a source of income (however large or small that might be). If you’re not careful, the various competing products that are currently available will help you to see the errors of your ways. At least change your payment model for the right reasons (for the sake of your company AND your customers), not because you’ll be forced to do so.

Worked great for my daughter’s college class without having to buy the whole program.

Unable to download license, no way to get a refund.

I have used this program for several years and am here to share my general experience with it and give you some recommendations.PROS:First off, this program is extremely intuitive and the learning curve is low to low-medium.The tools are simple to use but have a lot of power to them and are versatile for a wide range of applications of useThe biggest benefit to this program over all other programs i’ve seen including adobe is its 3D model library and model! This program comes with several 3D assets that can be dragged into your canvas super easily, and it has an in-built store where you can find a lot more for free or paid ones made by content creators which is great. This is even better because at least with the disk version, you get a code that gives you $5.00 in credit in the store. But that’s not the best part of this, what is the best part is the male and female 3D models that come with the program. These basic characters are proportionally accurate and can be adjusted to any position on your canvas. They also have sliders that can adjust their body type which I use all the time. This is an absolute life saver when you are inexperienced with figure drawing or drawing within proportion. This is what makes this program truly great for beginners. No other program as far as i know even includes this with it.This is amazing if you want to make comics. I’ve only made a couple of pages over the years but the quality of those comics are mostly due to this program. It is perfect for comic makers.This program is CHEAP. A ONE TIME PAYMENT! You get everything+free updates with only one payment. And this program is super cheap compared to most art programs.It very rarely crashes so it is a stable program.CONS: (mostly nitpicks)Adjusting the positions of the 3D models is a little clunky and slowish process, but definitely not something to be off-putting. Just needs optimization.Sometimes you can’t get into an art file by clicking in it in a folder in order to boot up Clip Studio Paint with it. It will give an error. However, you can open it by booting up Clip Studio Paint, go into open file, then select it that way. This is something that really needs to be fixed and is my only major complaint.Making new brushes is a pain and I haven’t figured it out yet, but downloading new ones is still super easy.The EX version is too expensive for what more it offers.Should you get this program? If you are a digital artist my answer is an absolute YES regardless if you are a beginner or a pro! It has tools that make making comics easy and fun, It’s 3D model library is UNRIVALED and is amazing for beginners. The program is easy to use and can do a lot, and it’s CHEAP. I can guarantee that you will not regret purchasing this program over other ones like corel or adobe. The price is just too competitive for what it offers, and it doesn’t constantly break. GET IT.

I dropped Adobe photoshop since they started requiring everyone to pay for it monthly/yearly, making it astronomically expensive. Clip studio is the best alternative I have found. In fact, I like it BETTER than photoshop for digital painting. It’s the best painting program I’ve ever used -blows photoshop away.Absolutely love it. I’ve been able to make some beautiful art with it.

its legit, good, one time purchase, yeah no updates but solid stuff dont gotta worry about AI updates like CSP has been trying to push out so i recommend it

I bought this for my daughter who had it previously with a subscription. She uses this program every day. She is self taught so it is easy to use and install. She makes incredible art with this program. Budding artist or highly skilled, this is the product for you.

I love the clip studio software. I purchased the but turns out i didn’t needed it i just downloaded the apps. but it is an amazing drawing program

This version one is outstanding it works great for me. I’m an advanced artist, so it works really well for me and it would work great for beginners. There are a lot of tutorials on it the only down future I don’t like is it continually connect to the Internet I mainly use the paint program in the clipper, is there a lot of wonderful features that you might like or anybody likes you can import poser pictures that’s 3-D objects and stuff in there if you buy the full package this is not the full package. The full package should be the ex version which would cost you a good chunk of money getting it but this is a good starter to begin with making always update to the other version which does a lot more thanks great for doing artwork. Good luck.

I ordered Clip Studio Paint Pro a few weeks ago on Amazon. It worked out just fine until three or four days ago I clicked on Studio Clip Paint and it won’t open anymore. When I say I’ve tried everything to open it, I meant I’ve tried EVERYTHING to open the Clip Studio Paint. I’ve reinstalled it, restart my computer hundreds of times, running the software as an administrator, downloading a new version of Clip Studio Paint. My computer has Windows 10 (64-bit). I’ve tried everything! I’m really upset.Is there something wrong with my computer cause I’ve had it for a decade? Should I get a new Computer? Or is there something wrong with the Clip Studio software disc itself? I’ve paid $60.00 for that software.

Sirve para personas con dominio de ilustración. Lo compré para diversión, nada de eso me produjo.

For the average person, this software does everything & more in photo editing for a great price.

I’ve been using Photoshop and Premiere Elements for years. The software is great. This year, as well as last year, I had to get Adobe tech support to install the software. The tech had to remote control my computer to do the installation. I asked why it required his intervention, and he said when you buy from a 3rd party, it takes a while for the info to get updated in Adobe’s system. People, he said, who buy directly from Adobe get instant access to download and installation. So, the moral of the story is: unless you’re willing to wait a few days after buying Elements before installing, you’re better off buying directly from Adobe.

First off, I’m keeping and using this software, but I am not happy about the acquisition. I’ve been a PE user for many years; in fact I use it daily. Adobe’s new delivery policy stinks. The program no longer belongs to the user, but is rented for three years. Even worse is the actually delivery and installation. They make a big deal of sending you an empty box with only a paper and product code in it, then you jump through many aggravating hoops at the Adobe site to download the actual program. As it comes from their “Cloud” it is slow as crap. Now to be fair, we are out in the country with only a slow broadband connection, but the program is very large and took 7 hours to “Install” !!!! And that was after I’d tried several things including disabling my antivirus and firewall to get it to work. Fortunately, it FINALLY did install correctly. BUT… I have NO actual downloaded file to save in case I have subsequent issues with my computer or something. I’d have to go through all that again!The only reason I bought the 2025 was because the 2021 version I’d been using on Win 10 cause Win 11 to totally crash and would not reboot. It took me 2-1/2 days to get everything working again! (I’m no geek; have to hunt solutions.) If I didn’t like the program so much and use it so much, I’d go to something else and never buy Adobe again. It’s a shame. A real shame. And disappointing.

Adobe is an excellent product. Make sure you understand, if you buy this version, that you must be an active teacher or student. A retired teacher is not qualified.

I have been working with photoshop for many years till it got too expensive so I switched to photoshop elements and am quite pleased with it and for me it is as good as the photoshop.

I was leary of purchasing PS Elements 25 since there were several reviews that stated a problem with loading the program. I have an HP laptop with Windows 11, version 24H2. All the literature states PS Elements 25 only works with Windows 11 version 23H2. I believe the product box and other listings of system requirements have not been updated. I purchased the program by itself so I don’t have any experience with the video software that can be bundled with the photo program. I can say I had no problems downloading the program and it functions fine. I had ordered the product box with the code enclosed – no CD.

Love Photoshop Elements! All I need as a photographer!!

Scam. They send you a key didn’t work in your computer you returned it. You paid$108.36. They give you back 8.36 they charge you damage for what it’s only an unused code. Nothing was damaged.

Works great, If you thinking about buying it, Do it!

The full version of Corel is awesome as usual.

I have been using the Corel suite since 1990, buying new versions at fairly long intervals. I find the Corel suite able to do pretty much everything I want, and more intuitively than the Adobe equivalents, which sometimes seem almost intentionally obscure. The Corel suite’s general design and logic remains pretty constant from version to version, compared to Adobe products that seem to keep changing in look and feel for no obvious reason or benefit. I just want to get my work done using the skills I already have, not to be dazzled by a new, pretty interface. Corel still allows you to purchase a perpetual license for one version of the software, rather than subscribing for an annual fee that will cost much more over time unless you need to upgrade annually (which you almost certainly do not). This purchase (perpetual license, version 2025) was a long-overdue update from version X6 (released 2012, I believe). X6 now requires some tricks to make it display correctly under Windows 11 with NVidia drivers on a modern high-resolution monitor. More importantly, I updated because I really needed a feature that was added just a few years ago: envelope distortion of bitmaps inserted in CorelDraw vector drawings. Envelope distortion allows me to fairly easily “rubber-sheet” a photo of a relatively flat subject to correspond to measured points in a vector drawing. That is, I can roughly eliminate geometric distortion in a photo that was taken from a location that is not well centered in front of the flat subject and/or was taken with a direction of view that was not perpendicular to the flat subject. (Think of taking a photo of the logo on the side of a box from an angle, then adjusting it to appear to be viewed dead on. Not my use case, but the same concept.) It has other, more complex uses as well. Envelope distortion is much easier and more precisely controllable than the old 3D effects interface for bitmaps. It can be used with subjects that have known point coordinates (or points that should correspond to positions in a vector drawing) but lack straight horizontal and vertical lines, which are used for some other Corel (and Adobe, etc.) tools to adjust perspective and lens distortions in cases like photos of tall buildings. X6 had envelope distortion, but only for vector objects, not bitmaps. Other changes that I have noticed so far: the interface (especially some menus and dockers that I use all the time) has been tweaked in ways that make some tools easier to work with, or make applying them possible with fewer mouse clicks. More effects are non-destructive “lenses” that can be adjusted and switched on or off, similar to Adobe Photoshop lens layers, which is a very useful improvement. While X6 was very stable, I have had the 2025 version crash already several times in just a few days of use (wiping out some work, even with the auto-recovery feature), so be sure to save often. Still, this was a necessary and worthwhile upgrade for me, since I really needed the envelope distortion of inserted bitmaps, and other changes look to be improvements, too.

My first computer was an 8086, does anyone still remember those. I’ve used both Corel and MS over the years and have always preferred Corel. Try this and you won’t be disappointed.

It first CAME OUT. DOES EVERYTHING YOU EVER WANT IT TO DO AND MORE. but…. THIS HAVING TO LOG IN TOYOUR ACCOUNT SUCKS- SOME DAYS I FORGET AND I CANT LOG IN – NOW I KNOW THEY WERE THE MOST COPIED FOR YEARS BIT THEY NEED TO COME UP WITH BETER SECURITY IDEA. AND THEY DO NOT CHECK COLLEGE ENROLLMENT.

It’s great and it is what I expected

I’ve been able to work on some stuff but it will take a little training to figure it all out. If you don’t have the time or patients to mess with it I wouldn’t buy. If you are like me and don’t mind doing some research you will like this.

Not easy or intuitive. Could not find any training or tutorials. Not for the novice.

Pretty cumbersome.

I’ve used CAD programs before, I thought this would be a little easier to use than it was found difficulties in trying to put items into and to create my own products. Would not recommend for somebody that was just starting I think it is leaning more toward Advanced. Still looking for a good one to use for my construction business.

This is a powerful tool to help you design and plan for home remodel projects. Easy to digitally recreate your room or even your entire house to see what fits, and how different design strategies compare with each other. Like all software, there is a bit of a learning curve to using it to its full extent; but once you’re familiar with it the operation becomes fast and efficient. Recommended

Don’t spend a dime for this software. It’s a pain to use and configure, not intuitive and the training videos don’t do much to reduce the learning curve. My biggest pet peeve is that this is not a U.S. English version, but a U.K. English version. All the units of measure are in metric and with some work you can do some customization, but it is a pain! Additionally, the material pricing component doesn’t even give you the option for $USD, but other monetary units.I regret purchasing this, trying to return it has been a pain.I went to SketchUp, but there are other alternatives out there that at minimum will work better than this.

i was thinking of a style of a house i wanted to build and this helped me narrow down on the style and this is very useful

Great Software for building design. Nice 3D model layout for review and intuitive to use.
