Corel PaintShop Pro is well suited for photographers wanting to adjust photos and also for designers who want to create designs from scratch, working in layers and merging various elements. Due to slow load times, Corel PaintShop Pro is not well suited when you only have a few small tasks to do and when a lightweight alternative will do the job just as well (e.g. cropping and red-eye removal).

All the controls needed to make presentations interactive using unique content are accessible easily from the platform's menu, and there is no programming knowledge required to make this work. Genially's support for collaboration enables multiple people to work on the same document for faster completion of a project.

Cons
  • I have the 2018 version and every now and again upgrade ads will pop up in the bottom right of my screen which I find rather annoying
  • How to save your work and where it gets saved is confusing. It took me a while to realize that projects were saved in "pspimage" files. The knowledge base article “The Basics Of Saving Files In PaintShop Pro” did not mention pspfiles. They also have the concept of workspaces, but I eventually realized that this is not where your work is saved.
  • I find that a tool called paint.net is massively easier to use, but, then again, paint.net has far fewer features. I think an option in PaintShop Pro for temporarily switching down the functionality and interface to resemble paint.net would be a useful feature, so users do not get blinded by the extensive interface.

  • It would be nice to be able to save images and have them available on Genially.
  • More free templates.
  • Figure out a way to make editing less time consuming.

I feel like the program is not only powerful and intuitive, it's also extremely affordable. I've been a PSP user for many, many years, and I've really not looked at any other alternatives since then. At the time, anything remotely close was very expensive. PSP does everything (and MUCH more) that I need it to effectively and affordably. As long as that continues, I'll continue to be a satisfied user.

Reliability and Availability
This program is not dependent on outside resources. Again, this is a desktop app. Load it up and use it. As long as your machine is reasonably powered and otherwise behaving, PSP runs great.

Implementation Rating
Nothing in particular. This is a desktop app. Install the program and use it. It's very straightforward for general graphic manipulation, and very intuitive for more complex processing.

Alternatives Considered
From an ROI perspective, we moved entirely away from PhotoShop because we could not justify the cost vs performance. Corel PaintShop Pro is simply more cost-effective and offers the same performance and tools.

I prefer Genially if I need to make it interactive but use Canva when I'm more in a rush and need a nice design. Also, if I know I need to use different images I usually prefer to use Canva because you can save them there and it has more templates for me to choose from. Having said all that, I love Genially because it allows me to do things no other app can.

Scalability
I'm not sure that this is scalable; it's a desktop app. Load it up, and use it. Make sure you have a license for each person using it. Pretty simple.
