It creates a copy of the edited image while keeping the original image intact. Compared to other alternatives the usability of this software is simple thus anyone can use it easily. It has an intuitive interface thus once the user open he or she knows what to do. Compared to related adobe packages, this software runs smoothly on a computer with lighter processing requirements. Lastly is on its pricing, if you intend to buy the whole package with photoshop it is fair compared to Lightroom itself. > > **Cons**: I really don't have much dislikes about this software since it has majority of features and also the quality of images produced are excellent only that it has limited editing options compared to other related alternatives. > > If you want to do photo editing this is the software to go since using this software is simple and it produces perfect images. Adding to that, it is also effective and efficient. ----- ### "A detailed and experienced review of Adobe Lightroom." — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *April 7, 2022* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The filters are provided on presets and recommendations by lightroom are another level of experience. I have used lots of apps but the filters which I got on Lightroom were unique and beautiful. If you are a photo editing enthusiast then let me tell you there is no better option in the market. Before I used to edit photos related to my business and its services through other apps and all those photos were uploaded to our social media pages but the engagement was not that much after I started using the lighroom for my all social pages the engagement of customers are on some another level. that's why I love this app. > > **Cons**: I have noticed that sometimes this app lags and shut down by itself while working and sometimes it doesn't open only. There are lots of editing tools and filters which is good also but if someone who is new to the platform is using this app then he might get confused about what to use and what not to use. Although I have never felt its requirement but the premium plan of lightroom is very costly it about $9.99 us dollars per month. This is something which is felt was very High if someone needs to go for a premium plan then they may need to think again before buying. > > Due to lightroom, the engagement of customers on all our social media pages like Facebook, Instagram, Google Page etc has increased by more than 70%. Which is has a direct impact on our overall sales and revenue we have noticed that customers connect more to our business once they visit our pages which filled with the content of lightroom. ----- ### "O CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN.." — 3.0/5 > **Nikhil** | *April 21, 2024* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The most likely part of adobe lightroom its the whole light panels , i mean personally its the backbone for all of it , and also the grain effect it adds essence to the picture like a24 studios does to its movies and images. > > **Cons**: the least i like about adobe lightroom as it doesn't have presets themes and designs that should the creator should give , i know we can create our own presets but presets themes what i feel should be there for more ideas and variations. ----- ### "Lightroom is the affordable, go-to application for Photographers." — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *April 7, 2022* | Higher Education Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is very powerful editting software, at a really competitive rate. It also integrates nicely within the Adobe ecosystem, especially working well with Photoshop. > > **Cons**: Takes some getting used to, especially how the files are imported vs loaded into Lightroom for editing. > > It is a great all in one editor, especially for editing large batches of photographs. It is the industry standard on that front. ----- ### "Lightroom for that Professional Graphic Edits\!" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *December 10, 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: What makes me grow fond of Lightroom is that as I do freelancing photography, it allows me to edit the photos I've taken in batches, thus making the job easier and efficient. The presets also allows me to create a consistent mood and theme all throughout the photos for a certain events so it really appears professional looking. > > **Cons**: Although it is a really good software, Lightroom, like any other Adobe products, needs a substantial dedication and time for you to learn it. Anyone who has no background in using Adobe products will probably be easily confuse with all the icons and tools therein so I don't think it is that beginner friendly. > > When it comes to purely graphic editing, using Lightroom is much easier than using Photoshop, for the latter is most appropriate in graphic manipulation. ----- Page: 1 / 14\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2057125/adobe-photoshop-lightroom?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2057125/adobe-photoshop-lightroom) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
