Pros

“Its automated AI enhancement modules allow correcting exposure, smoothing details, or applying stylized filters in a single click without requiring advanced post-processing skills.”

“I use Fotor primarily on my smartphone or as a light web version when I need to quickly edit studio ambiance photos for immediate posting.”

“I create images with AI, to create both serious article and satirical ones, and Fotor perfectly reads the tone of my prompt and delivers what I need.”

Pros

“Great set of function, especially considering the price. Since I adopted it two years ago, I never missed Photoshop.”
MR

Marco R.

“I create book covers and detailed banners/graphics/ promotional materials for both our church and for my business using Pixelmator Pro.”

“I use Depositphotos, and many graphics images often are available as eps files.”

Cons

“What made the experience even worse was that instead of showing any flexibility or goodwill, they tried to negotiate a partial refund and suggested I should pay for part of the year despite not planning to use the service whatsoever.”
EM

Eric M.

Director of Creativity

“I chose a rating of 4 stars, rather than 3, as the PROS outweighed the CONS, but I definitely feel this app is BEST FOR VIDEO CREATION (in which I do not feel ready to learn quite yet... and the credits needed would take time to save up without a real subscription), while it has definitely caused me some frustration in generating IMAGES. Since I haven't yet had the chance or funds to try the Video Generation Features yet, I can only speak of IMAGE GENERATION!)”

“Some adjustments lack finesse, and the advanced options are a bit too basic for professional-level work.”

Cons

“These cannot be edited with Pixelmator Pro and I haven't found a way to integrate these vectors into my workflow--for example, even using free convertors online does not enable them to be brought into Pixelmator Pro.”
DB

“It also does not have as much online support or as many functions as Adobe Photoshop, so I don't use it as much.”

“It is a huge learning curve and the level of frustration involved even to do the simplest of tasks was beyond me”
