Corel PaintShop Pro 2023 Ultimate | Powerful Photo Editing & Graphic Design Software + Creative Suite | Amazon Exclusive ParticleShop + 5 Brush Starter Pack [PC Key Card]

The installation process for this suite is a nightmare and to be honest, I’m STILL trying to decide if the hassle of installing Corel is worth the money saved over Adobe products. I will update this review in the future once I’ve had even more time to work with it; I’ve been using competitor products for 10+ years now so I’ll need more time to really give Corel a fair shake. But PHEW, this installation process was such a bad introduction!

I purchased this a month ago and still having issues. Support is horrible.

As many other reviewers have already stated, installation is a pain. I consider myself relatively computer/tech-savvy, and I honestly probably would not have been able to get this software on my computer if it weren’t for piecing together and following the helpful tips that other reviewers shared. Once installed though, the software is great. I’ve been using the quick-start guides, as well as other various online tutorials to really get to know PSP and so far, so good! Painful upfront with the installation, but an overall good product.

UPDATE: Reduced to 1 star, would give zero if I could. I started getting Black Friday popup ads. NOT OK! The ad popped up right over a work conversation while I was typing. This is a purchased product, so there should be no ads. Shame on you Corel! Get out of here with that garbage. I will not be using another Corel product again.

No disk no user guide ! HORRIBLE

So all you get in the box is a piece of paper with a download link and a series of serial codes. Beyond that youre pretty much on your own. Heres what I did:

Powerful options at a pay one time price. Competes as best in class for consumer photo editing. There are a ton of Corel supported tutorials and video on-line beating all competitors, especially for non-professionals. This and all versions have incremental upgrades but if you havent upgraded for 2 years, this is the one to get now. Highly recommended, I gifted a version to a good friend and I would buy it again

WILL NOT ACCEPT SERIAL NUMBERS

I could access Corel 6 aspect

this is a pretty decent photo editor from Corel. it makes a good alternative to photoshop without the constant renewal fees. its a pretty feature packed software suite. the main issue is the installation. it could have one installer that launches all the additional software setup in the order required. it does not for whatever reason.
